So, Turkey Day did not go as planned. Lost a smoker, but still have the house and all family members intact. So all in all a good end of day result. Not sure of cause, but assume a faulty regulator (I opened up the regulator the next day and found the diaphragm was damaged, which more than likely led to a flame out condition when I went to increase the smoker temp). When the propane ignited it split the cabinet at the seams (bowed out) and pushed the doors open. I had it running 4 hours prior with no issues, added a couple chunks of wood and turned up the heat to get ready for the turkey. Went inside for 5-10 minutes, came back out and it was definitely not how I left it.
At any rate, before I start on building a new one, need some ideas on the most recommended build based on cost, ease of use, safety, size, efficiency, etc.
Any practical experience and advice is appreciated.
