But I figured it out. Was a hurdle that I had to jump over. And the fact that I’m working in a small apartment patio is even more frustrating. But it could be worse. I could have no space to work in. But I’m going to get a folding welding table and that’ll help with getting more space back there.

Nice smoker! Does the smoker really need the deflector plate inside the chamber? I’m asking because I just removed it from my smoker. The smoke/heat was going under the meats because of the chamber deflector plate. I now have better air flow going through the chamber.
@fathersondiygarage3580 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Ralph, Adding a deflector plate to our cheap offset smoker improved the temperature consistency across the cooking surface so we decided to add the deflector to this one. However, this is much larger and may not need the deflector. We'll be cooking on it for the first time this weekend and I'll have a better idea then. Thanks for watching. Steve

If the plate goes all the across chamber with a opening on the end and your stack is above the fire box that's an reverse flow smoker.

@fathersondiygarage3580 2 жыл бұрын
Usually smokers are built from propane, compressor, or water tanks. All which are food safe when properly cleaned. This tank happens to be an expansion tank for hot water and was lined with a rubber bladder that we took out. What we did was grind off the rust and lit a fire to burn out the tank. Last step , when the fire was going we rubbed the entire inside with cooking oil to coat it. Thanks for watching!!!

Personally when building we thought the heat would concentrate to much in the beginning of the tank and not spread evenly. We were worried our meat closest to the firebox would cook drastically faster than the other side. Everything works well on our smoker and it cooks some good bbq so I think we made a good choice.
