What is this thing? I would appreciate any info about this

[Kristen]

Ive never smoked or bbq'd anything in my life. I know nothing about this subject. I need some info about what this grill is and what would be a fair selling price. It is brand new, never used condition. Attaching pics. Thx in advance!

THAT'S brand new? Sure doesn't look it from that pic. Looks home-made. No maker's logos? Those bolts holding the sides to something? No visible fuel conx points. No 'dials' to regulate temps.

Is that a smoke stack sticking up from the rear? Stick burner maybe so-----where does it get the air from?

Post some more pics from different angles.

Keep on looking is my opinion.

^^^ What he said.

I want to see the top flipped open. Is the smokestack a counterweight for the huge lid with a small handle? Are you buying a grill for yourself or selling a grill for a friend?

It is brand new, never used condition.

You mean just built ?? Pretty sure that's not something brand new out of a box...

Yes, more pictures inside and out...

The sheet metal screws on the side of the shelf, tell me thats homemade or at least modified. Definitely need more pics to see if its worth anything.

No offense Kristen, but without more pictures and details, it looks like a yard ornament. I am curious though about the smoker, just can’t know without more information and pictures.

The sheet metal screws on the side of the shelf,

Those look like screws for corrugated metal .

I should have said metal roofing screws, but yes.

Charcoal set up, just guessing.

Hi Kristen
Welcome to Smoking Meat Forum (SMF). Hope you stay with us for more fun and learning.

Yeah, I don't have high hopes for the unit you found in what appears to be a bargain resale area.

Looks like a thrown together charcoal grill possibly. Hard to tell with that pic.

The lid is so heavy I can barely lift it . Lol. I'll post more pics to better show it from all angles with better details. Its part of an estate sale I'm doing. I was trying to do some research and learn more about this item in order to price it correctly. I appreciate all the helpful responses from everyone so far. Thank you for all the great info from everyone here.

It looks homemade, a labor of love. if the thing is about 100# or more, I'd guess a value of $50-$100 in populated areas. Are you in the US? Probably worth less elsewhere.
Things that could make it more valuable are an adjustable fire grate so you can adjust fire height from slow smoking to grilling. Also it looks like emptying out coals and ash is a pain...if there was a hidden clean-out door that would help the price too.

I have seen a diamond-shaped grill similar to that before, but couldn't find anything with a basic Google search
