Re: 1000 gallon standard offset smoker
Wow, and plenty of out of position welding too. I don't think I could even get into some of those positions let alone still produce a decent bead. Hats off to you guys. Looking good.

Learning generally boils down to "Repetition or the avoidance of pain", some people learn by doing, some by watching and some just have to pee on the electric fence.

Those are block off plates at log rack level to make the combustion air go through the coal bed instead of going around and mixing with hot air mass and dropping the Temp before the cook chamber.Big T wrote:Looking good fellasWhat's the deal with the blocked off section in the FB ?

WELL.....
Actually, we are not hosting the Mid MO Smoke show anymore. There is a new host now. He’s a great guy and is getting his start in radio now.
We will be guests on future shows.

Re: 1000 gallon standard offset smoker
Done for the day. Had a lot of welding and grinding today. Doing a smooth radius finish on the outside welds. Takes some time to get right.

Re: 1000 gallon standard offset smoker
That is a pretty cool idea about the intake air. Looking forward to seeing how it works out.
That is going to be awesome with cabinet doors.

Yep, I’m remembering back a thread by SoloQ from back in the day where he did something similar and drastically improved the operation of his pit.

Looks like you need a dump truck. It can pull it as well as carry enough wood to keep it lit for a long brisket burn!
Love the damper control.
