Very generous tutorial. Thanks for the video, guys. I would name her Black Betty.

had mine for 30 yrs. your on the right track!

Great vid! I'm kicking it around myself and looking for ideas - yours is one of the best I've found so far!

Haven't you already named the smoker?....the Beast.

Form Follows Function. Excellent. That generator is about the simplest one I've seen yet. That Sched 40 pipe certainly won't fail. I'd add a stubby chimney, and air vents with dampers in the bottom, however. Otherwise it's a steal of a design for a box that big.

Great video 👍! Ron is a master at these kind of projects!! Ryan

Thanks for putting together all the ideas I had in my head into one video

Very clever

Another great video, gents. I look forward to trying this out for myself in "my" backyard! lol

What a great smoker!

Nice!

great work. definitely need to go with Washington state volcanoes: starting with Black Butte.

old hickory sounds best to me as some one raised around smokers all my life nevery nicnamed one that and i kinda like it

The smoker is kinda cool but the view from the lake is stunning. Where is this place? Tnx for the vid ❤❤

The frankensmoker haha. Just a question. Are the seals for the door ok for heat as well as their original purpose? I've always wanted to try something like this but worry about things like that.

I think “Radical Larry” is the only acceptable name for this smoker.

Greetings from Thornton Colorado!! I knew you guys were doing something else besides single malt scotch. You guys are always smoking things lol. A few weeks ago Brent got “Air Fired.” I also noticed the axe made a reappearance from a video some time ago. “ I wonder how that got in there” LOL and again at the picnic table. Are any of your neighbors missing? That certainly is a nice smoker. I wonder if my “ex” would fit in there? You could smoke her but not sure if good eating....... LOL. Again great content for the R&B’s Stavis Bay Smoker.

Don't forget to propose a name for the creation! Also, if we get enough interest (technical questions), we'll do a follow-up similar to our Making Bacon Part Two video.

Hey Ron and Brent, ironic you put this episode out the same day I smoked my 2nd batch of shoulder Bacon. Came out very good, recipe is fine, just gotta tweek a few smoking technique's. I checked out that place in Indiana, for hangers, but they are outta stock, and the one's on Amazon had mixed reviews at best. I'll figure it out. After doing 2 batches, laying on a rack, I can see clearly, It Must Be Hung!!! 3 questions, #1, I didn't see any racks, or rack brackets in this one, and #2, I didn't see a chimney on it, or doesn't it need one? #3, I have an Inkbird 4 temp probe remote, would you drill an extra hole to put the probe's through, or just close the door over the leads? Names: Beelzabub Ronte's Inferno Smokey The Bear (put a sign on the small one BooBoo) Chernobyl Just my mind wandering, lol (and if it wasn't on a leash, it would wander off) Great episode, Guys !!! Thank You, Mark

nice video, thanks for making it. Two questions. What is the purpose of the two fans? I read in the comments about the flue chimney. Did you add any vent holes in the bottom of the box or is the airflow thru the smoke generator enough? I've got a box and planning my setup now and got a lot of good ideas from you.

Love your Videos Ron and That Hatchet seems to be in a lot of your videos LOL, I have to ask - What's up with that? It's in this one Vid and your Double Brined Smoked Turkey Vid.

have you had any issues getting to temp once it is loaded with sausage? I want to do something similar but that single element seems (or so i am told) is to small? just thought I would get your feedback.

She's a "Beauty".

Hi, Ron Very nice!!! Got 2 questions: Can be used sawdust ,too? Do you use the bottom side to fire the charcoal or keep the fire the way you want and how do you do this??? Thank you!! I appreciate it!! Vic

How have the fans held up with them being in an enclosed heated environment?

Due you have any concerns/worries of plastic/rubber parts melting or giving off fumes/off flavors to the meat?Do you have any type of outlet/vent at the top or is the box pretty much sealed?Name???Brent's BadAss Bacon Box!

Any update on the higher temp controller?

You don't exhaust vent the smoke?
