offset

Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen! Decided to go ahead and start this thread! I have a buddy that's building a vertical off set smoker for me! It's going to be a 24x24x36 cook chamber, with a 20x20x20 firebox! I thought I would go ahead and start this thread tonight! Picked up 2 3/16" sheet...

Set alarm for 12 and labeled it "brisket fire" on my phone. I was so groggy and out of it that when I read it I thought I already had my brisket on and that it was calling me telling me it was on fire!:doh: WAKE UP! Ok on to this throwing of ye brisket (which almost came true when I put it on in...

Cooked on my new Highland this weekend; seasoned it the weekend before. Was a 11 lb. CAB packer brisket. & 8 lb. pork shoulder. Probably a bit ambitious for my first offset cook. Was a hot cook 275 - 325 for bout 9 hours. Around 7.5 hours in, I had ran through my 25 pound Kingsford Hickory Log...

Wonder if anyone could recommend the best compromise of size and quality for an offset smoker. I have a new (Weber, upright, bullet) water-smoker that actually does a nice job, but now that my old CharBroil is going belly up, I DO want to replace it with a good offset smoker that won't take up...

So my offset has a coal basket / tray for holding the fuel. The bottom is expanded steel so the smaller coals drop thru, so I don't get a big coal pile. I put another piece of expanded steel on it so the holes are a bit smaller. With the coals dropping thru I have to keep a very close eye...

Well as the title says im thinking "most likely" going to purchase a Lang if there is a yes to my question. No where on the Lang site does it say that a insulated firebox is an option or not, So to all the lang owners out there. Do you know if this is an option that ben lang would be able to...

I have completed my 1st ground up build. I did have some help along the way. Borrowed a lot of ideas from the internet. This is what I came up with. She cooks like a dream! Main chamber is 24"x60"x.375 new steel pipe. Fire box is 24'x24"x.375 steel pipe encased within 3/16" steel box. Fire box...

Hello fellas! I have been a member of the site for a time but this is my first post. I just bought a 275 gallon offset smoker off of craigslist. I was just wondering what techniques and/or suggestions you have on using the firebox. I have used grills of this size but not with the firebox...

...to paint a 42" Klose Backyard Smoker? The pit measures 42" x 20". The firebox is 20"x20"x20"

I went to the local home depot and they have an oklahoma joe longhorn offset smoker. Now I have seen pictures of the New Braunfels Oklahoma Joe and they look different. I don't know if they are made by a different company. If they are are they just as good. Thanks in advance for anybody that can...

What could i do with these useless items:confused:

Up until recently I had been using the drip pan to keep the humidity stable in my pit but I've also noticed the pit is either too humid due to flash off or under because it simply all steamed off and dried out quickly. I've begun experimenting with adding a shelf on the left side of my pit...

I am new to the forum and have not had any luck finding any info on Brinkman Pitmaster Deluxe mods. I am thinking of buying a used Pitmaster but want to make sure I can mod it before I do. I saw one thread about raising the fire grate and adding a baffle. Any details on these mods and any...

I've been thinking about building a stick burner since leaving Texas a few days ago. The Brisket from Lockhart is the new target I'm aiming for. Since all the pits I saw in Texas (and here) use indirect heat, I'm going to assume there are limits to how close one can get with a direct heat smoker...
