    Smoker was delivered today! I had to go to the UPS hub to pick it up because they didn't have a truck with a lift gate on it. No biggie but I really think I am going to enjoy my new toy :) I'll get my good camera out when I get home and take some pictures. Going to a friends house this...

    I can't wait to see how much more fuel efficient this new smoker is going to be versus my NB Bandera without mods was. Next order of business will probably be a charcoal basket, but I will see what this looks like when I get it.

    Well I got a shipping quote from UShip.com for $179 so I am very pleased there. Craig called me today and said he is starting to work on my smoker now, and it will be ready for pickup on Monday. Can't wait to start smoking something, I have a few racks of ribs waiting!! Hopefully I can get it...

    Hey guys, who do y'all recommend for shipping a grill? I was thinking I could get it shipped for under $200 using a discount through my local Jeep club, but they quoted me $300. I looked at FedEx and it was going to be $1600 OUCH! I was told the smoker weighs about 900 lbs, and its worth it...

    Well I just got off the phone with him and I am now on the order list!!! Got the 24 x 48 and he said it will about 3 - 4 weeks out before he can get started on it, and then 3 day build time so I can't wait!!

    Ok, so he wanted me to call him, but I got his voicemail. Anxious to see what he can do for me.

    Man thats awesome! and an even better price! I e-mailed Bellfab back to see what he can quote me. I told him I wanted slide out racks and didn't need legs or wheels, just maybe some bracing where I can weld to a trailer.

    Well I got a reply from Bellfab, and he said he built a smoker for a guy on a different form for $650 2 years ago. The new price would be $750, but he was sending me to the other forum for a picture. I just registered and will post up mainly because I don't want to sift through thousands of...

    That looks good. How well does it hold temp? Whats the most food you have put on it? I e-mailed bellfab, I will see what he can come up with and make a decision. Thanks for everyone's input on this. I never dreamed I would get this much response.

    The one from Academy looks to be 1/4" I just haven't put my hands on it yet. Not sure if my local store has it. That might be the way to go, I want to make sure whatever smoker I get will hold enough food. As I said earlier its not uncommon for me to throw 6 - 8 butts on or 6+ racks of ribs.
