    Converting 3 door fridge smoker from propane to electric

    We shut a few deer this past week and hunting season is over and smoking season starts. Did anyone have any advice on my last post? Thanks so much!

    Converting 3 door fridge smoker from propane to electric

    Below are a couple of pictures of the smoker from a little closer view. I think we like the idea of continuing to use this unit as our smoker and after hearing the electrical comments, I'd agree propane seems more reasonable. As a starting point would it make sense to buy three burners and put...

    The smoker never goes on the road and we do our processing in a 40x60 outdoor shed and we do have the capability to support the power needed for the two heating elements/motors. I'm open to any suggestions on improving the smoker and the only reason we thought about converting to an electric...

    Hey Danny thanks for the reply. I know the pictures aren't helpful and some of the stuff you're seeing is the smoker being used as a shelf. It's my old mans smoker that we use for processing our families deer meat and I'm trying to make it better. I live 2 hours from him, so I'll take more...
