They show up fine a couple of my computers

they show on phone also..

Those are beautiful builds. awesome.

If you mount them on the outside then you can use whatever you find at the autoshop. Inside sounds real cool and hope you find something to do that.

Thats a heck of a smoker to push around the yard. Congrats on the new toy.

I like just a creative smoke more than a whole meal. See it on the smoker and then on a plate. I just made some pulled pork tacos tonight. Absolutely awesome.

categories would be best but would have to keep a small number of them. Maybe UDS, SFB/RF and Box style smokers. Must post buildalong with some sort of proof of date to show it is a current build.

I need to get an auto helmet. That one is cool.

I like the build idea, but it would be hard to judge a small patio smoker to a big comp trailer rig to a UDS.

Sounds like you have the right tools to do the job. Welcome to the site.

You have never heard of St. Jude?? It provides care for children with cancer.

Well the event was a huge successful failure. Cooked enough pork for 500 sandwiches and only sold maybe 100. It was too hot out for the crowd to show up. Talk about a bunch of left overs. BUT, everyone raved about the pork and we had people at the end of the night buying pans full. A lot of people a...

Ya, there are a few things I would have done different but that is the why there is a first for everything. All and all it took 17 hours to finish all of them. I was able to pull a couple here and there that made temp quick. But that was only 4 out of the 32. I didn't foil any of them as there was s...

lesson learned today, I can put to much meat in the smoker. Having a very hard time getting temps up. This is going to be a real LOW and SLOW.

Just my luck. One big nasty storm came rolling thru earlier. Crap blowing everywhere, temp in smoker falling and just a mess. Slowly getting the temp back up now but with the butts still partially froze, its taking a while to get up to temp. Tom, Yes that was a tight fit to say the least. I should h...

Now the fun part begins. Spent 3 hours last night prepping 32 frozen pork butts. All trimmed, sauced and rubbed. This morning they are all barely on the smoker. Sun is rising and thunder in the background. what a way to start a good day. http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb262/MSCustomCalls/Smokin/...

Welcome ironman. I hope you have better taste in BBQ then you do friends.

The size of the smoke stack and fire box all depends on the size of your cooker. Round works just fine as long as it is big enough. There are a few smoker size calculators online where you can enter you size data and it will tell you how big the fire box and smoke stack should be.

I just used the Comet trick and it worked great. I did it after after burning the barrel out first. It took all the remaining liner right out.

This weekend will be my first REAL BIG smoke. I have never had my big smoker filled to the gill before for a large event. I have done parties for a few dozen, done hogs and so on. But nothing in the hundreds and hundreds. Excited and nervous. Tonight starts the prep work. The kids and I made a run t...

Putting the caulking on the inside of the joint of the two lids will help a lot. That is the main issue I have. The lid fits tight now but there are a couple dings in the ring on the barrel that I really don't want to try and pound out. I will caulk it up first and see how things are. I mainly need ...

Do you guys keep the exhaust closed down the whole time once it gets rollin? So pretty much you will have the whole thing shut down with maybe once inlet vent open or opened a little bit?

I have only ran it with a chimney starter full of coals as that was all I had at a time. I put them in with a few chunks of hickory and opened all the vents. I was also seasoning it so I wanted to get it hot. It got up to 350 and ran for an hourish then I closed everything down to drop the temp. It ...

All right folks. I got my new UDS smokable and have a few questions on smokin with it. Will testing it out the other day, I noticed that even with just a large handful of coals in it, I had a hard time getting it under 240 degrees. Is that common? Do you fill the basket full and let that burn all da...

I made up one of those drill type power pullers over the weekend from a floor drain. Will put it to the test weekend.

We make a lot of sausage and salami and have a big hand crank mixer. I was thinking about giving that a try or modifying the mixer with some spikes on it to help out.

Great job. Those look real good.
