Well after almost 5 months the day has finally arrived. Paul called me this afternoon and told me my smoker would be ready in the morning. I have a question for all of the SF smoker owners. When seasoning my new cooker, I know I should coat everything with some type of oil (Prob will use spray...

Just got my new smoker from Paul and Tyler of Shirley Fabrication! These guys know their stuff...I saw a cabinet model in their custom trailer models on their site shirleyfabrication.com and spoke to Paul about making something similar. I told him what I was thinking about and he took it and...

Whats' s up everyone! Being born and raised in San Francisco, I've always been really disappointed to say the least at the complete nonexistence of decent bbq out here. Don't get me wrong, I love it out here and we have lots of great food but bbq is just not something we do. So a few years ago I...

I talked to Paul earlier this week about going to see some of their cookers and he was kind enough to let me stop by this morning and take a look at a few that they are working on. I have seen pics on the forum, their website and their Facebook page but I can emphatically say that the pics don't...

I finally got my new SF smoker from TQ (Paul Shirley). I drove all the way from Las Vegas to Tuscaloosa to pick up the smoker. It was the trip from hell, I had my mother, nephew, and two daughters in the truck with me. It was one of those trips that can only be explained by Murphy's law. It all...

Sitting here with my dog, coffee and SF smoker got me thinking. What does your SF like to smoke at? I find after I get a nice coal bed going she stays at 275-325 very easily. quarter next to some split oak. Butts and brisket

Like watching paint dry. Door only open to remove beans.

After a long 12 hour drive to Tuscaloosa and two month wait (rub) :wink: my wife and I arrived in Tuscaloosa, AL. with a trailer in tow. Paul, Tyler, and his family were very friendly and welcoming. I knew from the first phone call with Paul that he was a true gentlemen and would run an...

Well less than a week and I'll be down in AL. Picking up my new SF RF smoker. Paul has sent me some pictures of the build. I opted for a regular RF smoker no warmer, 3/8 firebox, and upgraded move ability. I'll be cooking at the house mostly so if I need a holding area I'll click on the oven. I...

Sunday night was the inaugural cook of my Shirley Fabrication 24x50 Patio. (AKA "Tank". Im not one for naming cookers, but it seemed like the right thing to do at the time :wink:) It was delivered on time by lost and found delivery service, good service from them! Fired Tank with two chimneys...

Well I was a day away from calling Lang and ordering the 48 patio and maxing out my allotted budget but after reading so many reviews about SF I gave him a call and ordered myself a RF from him and his son. This will be my first stick burner and I went with a patio model with removable shelf, 2...
