Hey guys, I’m getting her ready for paint and built a small paint booth to get it warm and not have overspray all over my shop my question is what do y’all think of using a thin layer of phosphoric acid or ospho to kill the surface rust ?

I did go ahead and paint it but didn’t use the ospho, now I’m planning to season it on the first cook I need to cook something really fatty; does anybody want to make any suggestions?

Well today has been a long time coming but I have it painted and seasoned, all is not finished and probably won’t be for a while cause there are small things to do and I will build a WC but it’s time to put it and me to the Q test and I will probably be doing it this weekend. Thanks Big T, Rodcrafter, Frank and everyone who has given helpful suggestions I will post the Q-view as soon as I get them. ImageImage

Well here’s why the build, I’m gonna have to have a lot of people over to fill this thing up but I like having a lot of friends. Oh did you want to see? Well here goes. ImageImageImage it’s not quite time for them to come off yet but I think you get the idea.

Well every thing turned out great and with the use of our Kitchen aid mixer both butts were shredded in about 1 minute. ImageImageImage thanks again for all the help and Big T thanks soooo much for suggesting I cut the FB down at the door it really is a big thing.

Well now I’m having trouble with trying to keep the temperature at 160 I’m wanting to smoke some sausage my brother in law killed a nice deer and is having sausage made of 1/2 of it but unsmoked so I can do it, what do I need to do to keep the temperature low it’s wanting to stay around 200 with the damper only open about a 1/4 inch.

I closed the exhaust and that seemed to help is this the correct thing to do and I did build a smaller fire.

I know it can be difficult to hold low temperature but the smaller fire is going to help. You may have to only crack 1 intake. It will surely take some getting in some practice. I find each smoker wants to runs around a certain temp. Gizmo pointed this out years ago and I have come to experience it. I would light the fire like always to get the steel hot so she drafts right. Then reduce the fire size and go from there.
