Great video, you are a man of my own heart, who in the hell needs a stinking plan? Like you, I start at project in my head and go from there. Good job,man, keep smokin’! 🤓👌
This is a cold smoker, not a hot smoker, softwood and plywood are just fine for this type of build. If you're going to hot smoke, it should be built out of metal or brick. Since this won't exceed about 225 internal air temp soft wood works great
I don't like the location of your thermometer with that long spike on it. Wind could blow the door closed and stab you pretty deep or you could simply walk into it. But your build was Awesome.
No rebar in that concrete base? Or even some wire mesh? Major mistake. So cheap to do and so costly in materials and sweat equity when it fails... Did I just miss it?
Hi this is your first smokehouse and whiteout plan so congratulations on your project, some comments about what you did wrong first thing when someone build something like this there is a reson for it most people say halter meets for siblings and family you just buy using wrong material to build this house not gonna get this benefit and paint over is for sure help . So your smoke house is good looking and it’s gonna last you next 20 years but I guarantee it’s healthier for your family to buy hams and beacons from the stores they use stainless steel smokers
Yeah wood is just fine or more preferable. I have to mention for safety reasons, plywood has toxic glue in it. I'm sure you burned it out a few times prior to cooking with it but just FYI for others
This could be considered a dangerous video. People thinking he built something worthy of smoking food in... Please folks, choose your materials wisely when building anything to cook or prepare food with.
Smoker box is great. But why go through with all the heat, and trouble when now a day we have cold smoke by smoke generators. Personally I use a smoke tube which lasts me up to 5 HR of whatever smoke flavor I choose. I know there are some that last a lot longer.
