    New Build - Not sure what category this fits in

    i guess i should say we got it up to 275 or so, just to see what it could do, but it required quite a good fire going on down below and wouldn't be able to sustain that for a long cook (like a brisket or pork butt). i did consider hooking up an electric heat source or something like that for...

    New Build - Not sure what category this fits in

    Here's a pic of my new build.  Most welding done by a good friend.  Got the Brinkman charcoal grill for nothing from another friend.  The firebox is a 15 gallon drum on its side.  6 inch pipe between the two with a old timey looking cast iron damper.  Huge grate, I fit 3 ten pound pork loins on...

    Woods For Smoking

    Apple is definitely my favorite, but hard to come by.  Have had good results with Oak.  Have a few Ash trees on my property and will try them soon.  Probably with something small in case it doesn't turn out.

    Worth it to add a SFB?

    i was a different grill.  and i was too stupid to put the thread in here.  here's the new thread. http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/125818/modification-question-sfb it is a brinkmann, and an older (but little used) model.  doubt any SFB i can find will fit on well.  just learned that...

    the lid of the grill has vents on both sides just right under the top.   hope that wording makes sense.  the picture doesn't show it though.

    Modification question - SFB

    thanks for the input.  honestly didn't know brinkmann made a SFB, was looking at their site for one and didn't see anything.  kinda spendy, but might have to go that route.  if all else fails, could weld it on i guess.
