Well I had to go and build another smokehouse. I had a large one but gave it to my cousin cause I didn’t use it like I did. I bought a Masterbuilt 30 a few years back and have been using it. It quite working on me and never being happy with it I built this one. Like the one before it’s electric based and ran off a PID system I put together for excellent temp control. The only thing is it never got the bark like using wood or charcoal. So this time I’m integrating a charcoal/wood stove to fire the smoker also using the PID to keep temps for long smokes. The inside chamber is only 12” deep x 18” wide x 42” tall. Any ideas for a small wood stove I can pipe into the smoker? Ideally I’ll pipe it so it will keep it 70-100 for my bacon smoked. I have access to an unlimited number of metal 5 gallon buckets but I feel even one of those might be to big. What are you guys using for your smaller smokehouses
