So my smoker is 95% complete just needs paint (which is going to happen tomorrow weather permitting) and should be delivered Saturday if all goes right. I have some pics before it gets here.

I upgraded the firebox at the last minute with an inch air gap on the side and an inch of firebrick around the bottom and sides.

Finally got her home today, due to some weather constraints on the paint job but she is now in my garage! I need to let her sit a day or two more to let the paint cure on her then I will be rolling smoke!

Aaron, looks great! Thanks for posting this, I called him today and plan on going tomorrow to see his work in person. He is only about 20 miles from me. What do you think so far? Have you fired it up yet?

Dear SMF Family:
Hey, I know I haven't posted much on these boards in a while. After I got rid of my stick burner for financial reasons and went to a BGE it hasn't been the same. Don't get me wrong I like smoking on the BGE. Easy to control temps and set and forget good product coming off the grates. But I love smoking on a stick burner. as some of you may know I have owned about 4 Lang's (36, 36 hybrid, 2 48s). I was looking to make it 5 Lang's owned as I was looking on Facebook market place and thought I had come to a deal with a guy from FL about his 36. I was going to pay him extra to bring it to me and we had it all worked out. and he started jerking me around so I finally started looking elsewhere. I saw a place in my hometown of Monroe that did custom fab work and the examples they had online were very reasonable price. so the wife and I got in the car and drove 25 minutes to meet the man doing the fab work and see his shop. Nice guy and his work looked well done too. he said he didn't have anything that wasn't already sold and so we discussed things and came to an arraignment for a deposit and he currently building me a 48x24 stick burner with a 24 inch firebox.

I asked him while he was building my smoker if he would text me pictures of the process so I could post them online and talk about the work he is doing for me. he said sure and these are some pics he has provided so far. I will post more as I get them!

I for one am just tickled that I'm getting another stick burner!
