I had made a smoker out of a thick stainless pot...Dang is stainless one heck of a insulator. You can put your hand on it and not get burnt..It's 25 outside with a windchill of 6 cooking at 275 w/ very little air. Holds heat rock solid temps.
If you build a jumbo mini type of smoker go stainless vs aluminum....It's worth it!
