96 Cubic Foot Insulated Thermostatic Controlled Electric smoker

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!
