Me and a buddy decided we should build a new smoker. The barrel smokers are great, but lack space, and take a lot of charcoal when it's - 40C... This is what we got so far. I still need to wire up the thermostat, but I'll post more in the next couple days.
7 - 185Watt Strip Heaters for the Main Heat,
I will be putting in 2 more on a different controller strictly for smoking the wood chips.
Kinda looks like an Outhouse.
The entire front wall hinges open to make it easier to hang rods for the meat to hang on. We are also going to develop a chute or smaller access to add wood chips so that we don't have to open up the big door.
Steel heat shields around the bottom to help reflect the heat from the wood .
Im so hungry now... I'll post more once we get it smokin!
pure awesomeness
ReplyDeleteHi, Great looking smoker!!!! I just found your blog, I too have a cooking blog. Your food looks sooooooooooooooooo good! I'm very new to this and finding it hard to develop a following. There are not to many homespun barbecue blogs out here. Looks like you could use a few new followers as well, come on over, follow me and I'll follow you back. Happy eating, Steve
ReplyDeleteI have a store bought smoker but have been looking for a larger outdoor one and now I have found it, will build it this spring when and if snows goes...Talk to you when I finish
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteIndeed a beautiful post, I know Electric smoker is very important, I myself love it & that's why I have recently purchased one of the top electric smokers around, because once I put my money on it, I need it to work for years.
By the way, Keep up the good work.
