Looks nice. What kind of wood or charcoal do you use. Probably a dumb question but I dont know of anyone who has one.

I'd like to have a large outfit like that, I doubt if I'd ever need one that large.

The bottom 1/4 of 22” pipe above firebox is cut out. A piece of 1/2 plate is welded in a third of the way from bottom of pipe. The 1/2 plate goes to 6” from the end. The heat and smoke hits the 1/2 plate, goes to end of pipe, up around over meat to smoke stack and out.

I use mesquite mostly, but hickory and red oak sometimes. I can get pecan too. It’s good also.

I’ve built quite a few like this. Some like the one I built my son in law.
