    Honey Glazed Ribs

    Decided to clean the bottom of my smoker today. Once I got all that junk out, I thought, well I'll throw me some ribs on the rack...Turned out pretty good, different flavor.

    Made Mods to my current smoker and trailer

    Thanks Beer-B-Q. Yeah, me and my help constructed the entire thing. The tank is an old propane tank, 500 gal I think. the firebox is an angle iron skeleton wrapped in diamond plate. Started this project in fall of '07, I get it completed, then decide I need something else, its a never ended project.

    The Wood Smoker

    One thing I will say guys.....if you use a propane tank, like I did. Make sure the tank isn't pressurized. Take the valves off if it has any....Make sure their isn't any gas left in the tank....These precautions will definitely make things safer.

    250 gal propane tank for smoker questions

    Yes, I used a step bit drill bit and drilled out the corners. You could also use a cut off wheel on a grinder and cut the notch out.

    How do I season a new offset smoker?

    I used a combination of crisco that i rubbed on the cooking racks and cooking oil in a sprayer. I sprayed it down with a gallon of oil. I then used a chimney starter to get a bag of charcoal going, then I used a lot of wood and got the fire temp up to 450-500 degrees. Did this once, seasoned out...
