320 gallon RF

Post by NM83 » March 9th, 2014, 9:28 am

I just completed my first RF build, first smoker build ever actually. I have been cooking with a SmokinTex for 7 years and was ready for a stick burner. After finding this website, I felt completely prepared to build exactly what I wanted. It looks like it will take a few posts to get all of the pictures up. Comments and criticism are welcome.

I know one thing that is one of the coolest baskets I have ever seen fabricated. Man, I'd have to drop a plate of stainless over that FB and have one hell of a griddle during those long cooks. :kewl:

Nice build, clean looking rig.


If it can't be smoked .... try frying it. It that don't work, it's probably best just left alone

Hey guys, sorry to keep you waiting so long for some q-view. So far we have done 2 whole hogs, several hundred pounds of everything else. We are doing vending one day per week now.

Very nice. Built with a purpose. Looks like it might be paid for already?
