You're very welcome guys! I do feel the same way about the usefulness of this site. However, there are some features of the new site I have not introduced as of yet simply because I didn't know how the culture would develop there with the change in platforms. 1- There is a feature called "Hashtags" ...

Morning guys! So, I am way behind as has been my usual mode of operation. I apologize for any confusion that has arisen from my lack of communication here. Here's where things currently stand in regards to this forum message board. We (my developer, Jacob, Lisa and I) have been working very hard in ...

Do you have any plans to import any of the information on this forum over to the new platform? Hi Timmy! Unfortunately we couldn't move everything. however, any posts that you guys want to move can be added on the new site as "Articles" The articles can have multiple pics and text formatting. you c...

Howdy guys, It's time to update things. I called Pete Mazz a while back and discussed updating things to a new platform. We both agreed and felt it was best. This site is now 13 years old and has been tapering off in use for a while now. The old school forums like this one are having a hard time kee...

Looks great!
I will add some 20” plans with round fire box to the list.

Beginning in August 2022 We are getting ready to start making some rounds for Box plans. [emoji106]

Howdy all! I been working in this Smoker for a while now and decided to do a photo dump of the progress so far! I am making a complete series of YouTube videos for this Build but editing takes a long time so you’ll see it here first [emoji106] Anyway, I started with 3 long skinny 500 gallon tanks. T...

Looks awesome!

Insight from the originator is definitely welcome.But your explanation does make sense. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Glad to explain! So where this came from was we had a door one time that was twisted about an inch and a half out. It was such that the top left in the bottom right corner were...

Welcome aboard!

Hey guys! I have a full video series coming Soon to our YouTube channel but wanted to post this here? I get asked a lot if you can cut tanks with a plasma cutter with the water still in it. Think about water tables on CNC Plasma tables. So the short answer is yes but you need to keep a couple things...

Looking good!!

Code 3 spices in Collinsville, IL. Old World Seasonings in Concordia, MO Pork Mafia, Chicago, IL. They do all t...

I’m near West Palm Beach, Florida. Good article. Only been out there a short time I see. I wish them well and hope they are successful. I think bbq is the most universal food in the world. If that meat is good, somebody is gonna want it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Sorry for the double post ...

I'm in Phoenix, Arizona. Here's a link to a write up on the guy as well as mentions of another company that is rumor to have some good barbecue. I haven't made it to that joint yet so I can't attest. https://www.azcentral.com/story/entertainment/dining/2021/10/29/phoenix-pit-barbecue-competitions/5...

Sorry I’m late to the game Here but here’s the standard I have used for years and these guys will attest to this accuracy. I’ve always stuck to the numbers our calculator at bbqpitcalculator.com gives. Start with the gallons on your cooking chamber. If you’re building an offset, for the firebox use ...

Looks awesome!
Great job!
And yep on what tinspark said!

Howdy! Great question! There are several really good machines in that class that have come out recently. I’m not familiar with the one you mentioned though. If you want multi process I have and use the blue demon MSTI200A which is 200 amp. We also use this one in our welding classes. Here’s a link t...

Looks great!!
That’s a really great pit to start with!
