Greetings. I recently got a True Freezer stainless steel freezer from my church, and I'd like to convert it to a smoker. I could use some advice from anyone that may have some experience in this area. I've done some research, and so far, I know I need to remove any materials that will become toxic like the inner paneling, the foam insulation and so forth. The freezer stands about 7ft tall with double doors and about 5 racks per side. I'd like to just use charcoal and not have to add any propane fueled methods. where the compressor is at the bottom I'm going to convert to the hotbox/coal area. My biggest question is how would I achieve a fairly even heat distribution throughout the entire smoker?
 
Check out the website for Smoke Daddy. They make pellet hoppers and install them onto old fridges to make smokers out of them and have some great info on their website, I think it is Smokedaddyinc.com
Great idea by the way , I have thought about it but have smokers I dont use now lol
