I've seen a lot of smokers on the forum built out of these 275's, they make a nice smoker. This is the first one that has doors that open up, most swing out like a cabinet. Do they open fairly easy or does it seem to get out of reach ?

What are the dimensions of your firebox? Looks like you feed from the top?

Nice rig... nice Q. Well done.

If it's tourist season, how come I can't shoot 'em?

They do make nice cookers, you did a great job on it. They hold a ton of food too.
