30 Gallon Double Barrel Build

[urbanredneck]

Well, happy to say I'm mostly done with my first build!  So far just done some ribs, a chicken (In grill mode), a couple of fatty's, and some ABT's, but it's holding temp ok- I'm cheating a bit by adding a King Kooker burner in to preheat it and if I need to recover temps, but all in all she's turned out decent for my first shot!

Thanks! Some things I would do a bit differently next time, but a fun build none the less

Did you use a kit to put this together, or did you just source everything on your own?  I'd love to have a big old double barrel like this someday, sounds like a good autumn project some year..

I actuall got the connecting pieces and the base as a kit- vogelzang makes it and can score it from northern tool.  the rest was pieced.together from various.sources including ebay and the local hardware store.

how does it work, a friend of mine who is helping me build my smoker (really just keeping me company) wants to put one together when we finish mine. is it easy to control temps?

, looks like it puts out some good Q

Hello, I have just finished building one that looks more or less like yours. I was wondering if you have faced any problems controlling the temperature?

Mine reached 235 F stuck there for a bit then took a dive to 188 F. for the remaining 4 hours I never saw 235 again.

Do you know what kind of issue am I having now?
