Woodchip Burner
Well I found a Great deal tonight, it relates to this post by coyote1
http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/for...threadid=88520
I saw this other post about using a mesh strainer to make a wood chipburner
http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/for...ad.php?t=88973
and decided to try to find one. Checked the dollar stores ect...none as big as I wanted. Sooo tonight I went to wally world with Mrs SOB to continue the hunt....Ended up with this




They each already have a metal ring attched to the bottom, to hold the shape when you force the bottom up to create the woodchip burning track...Bonus!!!

Heres what they look like after I shaped them


Here is some pics of each of them with my cell phone on them to compare sizes. the small one


medium size


Large one


3 different sizes!!

This is great! I'll be trying each one with Hickory chips and timing each one to see how long they create TBS. Thanks to Coyote1 and Surgem7 for you ideas! I need to make some mods to mount them to a frame to hold them in the air also...All this for $7.00...they were on clearance!!

Wish me luck... Hope these work

Glad you liked it hounds51!! I've used mine a few more times and am liking it more and more. The last smoke I emptied the sawdust bag for my power mitersaw(after cutting up a few different kinds of wood)into the burner and it worked great!

Cool idea. I've got to hit up WallyWorld today for a few things so I'll have to pass through the kitchen section and grab me up a set.
Thanks!!

Interesting indeed! I wonder if they will hold up for a long time?

I have been looking all over for these and have not found any that are big enough yet.

 

[hounds51]

I use the ones that are suggested, and I use the large one it smoked good in my large smokehouse.

No Joy at the local Wally! They don't carry them, will check at the other 4 Wally's that are within about a 10 mile radius of the Casa.

I did see it the first time and I was about to try it when I bought a hot plate and that way works really good and I can adjust the temp too. Sorry

 

[smokingohiobutcher]

Yea the set I bought was the last one they had on clearance.Maybe if you took in a pic of these and asked if they could order a new set they would do it???
worth a try?
