I knew I'd been gaining a little weight, but I hadn't had anyone refer to me as that yet.

Great looking piece of equipment. Is the fire box under the square box at the left of the cylinder cooking area?07-31-2007 07:40 AM


Yes it is. It's about 2' deep in there, then it comes to a bulkhead, and feeds the main oven from the top. The upright oven feeds through a hole in it's floor, and is regulated with a draw plate. It exhausts through a slide panel on the top left, and also has a slide panel on the bottom left for mixing outside air if necessary.
 
Do they build trailer units? if so whats their web site?

I'm impessed with your unit, it'l last a life time

Yup. http://www.smokeyjoesmokers.com/

I don't know about a lifetime. The last one was made of 1/4", and it lasted about 10 or 12 years. This one is 1/2". It may outlast me, but I don't know about a youngster. I guess Lifetime is a subjective term.

Can you take some more pics of it ,specifically the firebox. Thanks.
 
He delivers ofr a very reasonable price. No, really he does. NY, Cal, Wherever.

I'll try to get some more pix for you. What in particular were you wanting to see about the firebox? It is internal in the tube, about 24" deep. It sits directly below the upright oven. There's a bulkhead at the right end of the firebox, you can see it in one of the pix. If you look, you'll see where I've pointed out the " top feed" design. Which, by the way, I'm having a little difficulty with. He's supposed to come down this week and make a small mod to correct it. And yes, the rig is a custom version of one of his trailer units. I didn't hae it put on a trailer because I didn't want to have to loan it, and or my services out all the time.
 
I've taken it for a couple of spins, but no big cooks yet. She ought to get her legs stretched this weekend though, part of the OTBS is coming down for her christening, We'll try and get some pix if the Coors doesn't get in the way.

I just wanted to get a better idea of how it worked and what it looks like right where you put the wood in. I must say again how awesome that thing is.

Very smart move not having it on a trailer. At least the party's always at home now !!!
 
Dude, you can bet your eyesight that I indeed will lift a toast in honor. I thank all who are serving our country. Please tell them how much we appreciate them!
 
Please take the time to tell him that someone that he's never met wants to thank him for his service. And we will have a class AA dive hunt in his honor.
 
Dude, tell your son thank you from me and my family in Delaware... if it weren't for folks like him, we wouldn't be able to do what we're doing right now!
