Hybrid Gas Grill/Smoker/Pig Roaster Build

Tank Cut
I've been building an all around use grill/smoker combo for a friend out of a 120 gallon Propane Tank. It uses the center of a 5 burner gas grill as the heat source, The waterpan/heat deflector lifts out and you can high heat grill on the original 5 burner cast iron grates,or on the first 24 by 36 cooking grate. Put the waterpan/heat deflector in and it can be used with 2 or 3 burners as a low temp smoker, or roaster, use all the burners and it can be used as a indirect high heat oven for roasting or pizzas. The front shelf swings down for storage. I've built 4 others of these in various sizes and they[cook great, the small side firebox is to burn charcoal and woodchips, or small splits of wood for smoke,rather than chipboxes over the cooking grates, it is ducted under the lift out pan.
