    Yeah, I like the rectangular water pan and stainless burner. We have an Academy store here. I'm going to see if they will assemble one for display so I can look it over.

    Vertical SS Smoker only $179!!!!

    I think you are right. Heck, for that price I could make changes if I have to and still come out ahead.

    36" Vertical SS smoker at Academy

    Academy sports has a 36" vertical stainless propane smoker for only $179! I have not seen it assembled. It is an "Outdoor Gourmet". Has anyone heard of this or uses it? How about a review? http://www.academy.com/index.php?pag...263-02367-1204

    First smoke.

    Have fun VC. I fired up the Bandera last night to cook a couple of steaks. When they were done I threw a couple of logs on the coals and smoked some turkey legs for lunch today. I always put some water on the deck around the smoker to keep any coals that may drop from burning down the house...

    Hi from Missouri

    Welcome! I did not know that peach was bad. I've been thinking about getting some since it is readily available in the "Peach State". There's a lot of apple and pecan too. Pecan is one of my favorites.

    Gas Box Smoker ??

    Rich is right. Wrap that thing with some sort of insulator. You might try modifying a water heater blanket.

    Blank sheet, dream smoker

    OKJ, I have given this subject a lot of thought. I like my Bandera (vertical smoke chamber with offset firebox. It is more compact than the horizontal smokers, has more cooking space, and you can hang meat in it. I would build the firebox bigger and have an ash drawer in the bottom. I would...

    I am making potato sausage for the first time

    Cure kills and helps prevent clostridrium botulinum (Botulism). If potato sausage includes meat, you have to be careful. As long as you are very clean and keep the meat cold while you make the sausage, you should be OK. But if you keep meat between 40 and 140 degrees for very long, you are...
