    Question about propane hookup in a food warmer build.

    Ok, I have a Northern Tool burner, http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_15490_15490?cm_mmc=Google-pla-_-Food%20Processing-_-Cooking%20Stoves%20%2B%20Burners-_-330973&ci_src=17588969&ci_sku=330973&gclid=CJfJzu3GqLwCFQIOOgod8nMAIw  That is sitting at the bottom of the cabinet. My...

    Question about airflow for a converted food warming cabinet.

    Anyone know the temperature tolerances for the rubber hoses for LP tanks? I got one of the gas burners from Northern Tool to use as a heat source in the smoker. I've got a good bit of room at the bottom of the smoker so about 10-12 inches of the hose will be inside the smoker. Is that a hazard...

    Question about airflow for a converted food warming cabinet.

    awesome, that's what I needed. I'll definately do the mod. Your box looks almost identical to mine. What did you do for grates? I just had a local welder fab up 3 for me out of angle and expanded steel. Figured it was easier than buying or fabing myself.

    Question about airflow for a converted food warming cabinet.

    Recently acquired a nice food warmer. Bout 6' tall by 20" wide and 26" deep. Primarily going to use it for cold smoking but I have a propane burner, and if temps are high enough I may use it as a hot smoker as well.  My question is, the guy I bought it from had the same basic idea as me. He cut...

    Help, pallette de beouf

    I know this is old but since nobody answered you, I think Palette de beouf is closer to chuck roast (My Wife actually grew up in Laval so asked her.) 2lb pieces would be tough to smoke, I think it'd be easier if you were able to get bigger pieces.

    28 day Dry Aged Rib Roast

    Beautiful looking steaks. I can't wait to start mine. Question, once you put it in the fridge, do you have to do anything to it? The way I've done it before I wrapped it in a cloth, and I'd have to change that regularly. Obviously you don't do that. My concern is the wife and I are going on...

    Ok, need some opinions on patio size reverse flow.

    What if you put a piece of plate steel at the bottom? It could serve 2 purposes, you could use it to take up some of the overage you have using a 14" firebox, and would give a flat platform to put a charcoal basket or fire rack on? Just a thought.

    Ok, need some opinions on patio size reverse flow.

    Hey RW, do you think maybe going to a 24" but sticking with the 16" diameter would be better? I forget if you're getting the material cut to length. If not, you could easily do both and see which sells better.

    You're off and running RW. Good luck. Can't wait to see the finished product.

    Dry aged prime rib

    Interesting. Thanks.

    Dry aged prime rib

    I've dry aged before but never for that long. Definately on the to do list though.  Question, why the salt underneath? Just for moisture control? It doesn't appear to touch the meat in any way so I'm confused by that. I need to try Mr T's method of cooking it as well. That looks amazing.

    Cutting 18 gauge stainless and expanded steel

    Here's what I'm talking about. http://www.amazon.com/b?ie=UTF8&node=256287011 Bit more control for different depths.

    Cutting 18 gauge stainless and expanded steel

    You'll want a step bit for the kettle grill. I'd also recommend taping the area you're going to drill to have some added protection against paint chipping. For metal cutting, yes a grinder would work with a cutoff blade. Might not be the easiest but it'll work.

    I think at that price point, you're right on the money. It's only $100 difference but it's funny because $400 to upgrade to something a little bigger doesn't sound so bad. But add another $100 and people start thinking they don't want to pay twice as much. 3/16 is still plenty of metal to hold...

    Ok, need some opinions on patio size reverse flow.

    RibWizard, I totally agree with the not needing 10lbs of charcoal to do a butt or rack of ribs. I have to disagree with BadMoon though, again, purely my opinion here. But if I'm spending $600 on something I sure don't want to think that a few years down the road I'm going to spend $1000's more...

    Ok, need some opinions on patio size reverse flow.

    Are you getting a substantial price break by ordering material in quantity? I'd imagine you're getting a decent deal, but let's say for example, I want you to build me the exact smoker we're discussing, 14" x 28" but you're only buying the material to build that one smoker, can you come close to...

    Ok, need some opinions on patio size reverse flow.

    I could certainly see why someone may want a smaller size. And that's a pretty hefty jump to a 16" diameter, At $1000 you're at a Lang 36 price and I believe square inch wise the lang is bigger.  If it's not cost effective to go bigger in diameter then maybe consider offering 2 lengths? Maybe...

    Ok, need some opinions on patio size reverse flow.

    My 2 cents. I really like what you're doing. But 13" seems a tad small on the cooking rack. What kind of price difference are you talking jumping to a 16"? I think your length is perfect for the avg joe user though.  As someone who has been in the market for a smaller patio smoker for a while...
