New Smoker Design

Well, here is the new smoker design. Within about 2 weeks we will start construction and will film it all. This smoker will be designed to hold 2 whole hogs or a lot of shoulders. You will notice that we will be building it without and cross members in the door openings so that we get more usable space. This will also be a model for the new line of Peg Leg Pits......

This is Hillarious...Pat Martin and Peg Leg Porker

I went over to my buddy Pat Martin's one night and he was being interviewed by the newspaper while he was cooking a hog for the Belle Meade Plantation. This was the scene as his hog was being photographed......I thought I was going to crap my pants I was laughing so hard.

Demolition of the old smoker

Well as many of you know, I burt down our old smoker last year. That is one reason I have been building a new smoker. Well, Memphis in May is fast approaching and so we have to demo the old smoker and get it off the trailer. It was sad to see her go.

That cooker was made from the old refridgerator of the place my friends and I grew up drinking in "The End Zone" RIP to the Smoker and the Bar

Building the new Smoker Part 3

Well, yesterday we worked on the new smoker again. It is coming along and I hope that we can have it finished in just a few more weeks. Dave Johnson, Steve Dresch , Patrick Julian and I had a few beers and got just a little further on the firebox.

Thanks to everyone who has watched and given me feedback. I know that I have always appreciated when others have posted pictures or videos of building smokers before. I have seen several good picture libraries for building gravity fed smokers.

I have some exciting news coming in the next few months so stay tuned....

Building a New Smoker Part 1

In my opinion, the best pitmasters can build a pit or at least tell someone how they want one built. That doesn't mean you have to be able to weld or need to be a mason. It means that you understand that a pit can be as simple as a stack of cinder blocks and a grate; it can be as beautiful as a brick pit; it can be an offset horizontal smoker or it can be a vertical or gravity fed smoker. Some pits are open, others are not. Some utilize temperature control units, some do not. In order to truly understand the art of true BBQ, you need to understand what makes these pits different and the qualities that each have.....good and bad. Over the years, I have had a chance to use and build many pits. I am always finding new qualities that I like about each different design. We are about to build two new vertical pits and then a new brick pit. I like em all and just can't seem to get enough.

As I mentioned, we are in the process of building a new vertical smoker from an old stainless steel refrigerator body. Here is the first video in a series of videos showing you how we will build it. Enjoy.....
