kikiman37 Is Just Starting Out
Talking Hello from NM

Just made a smoker from a water tank and wanting to learn how to cook with it. It is propane heated from underneath. The vents shown are to make sure no gas is trapped before turning it on. The first time i tried to turn it on i cooked all the hairs on my arm. The water pan on the inside is made of aluminum and is being held by one of the rods running across.

There is an exhaust on the back top side. I used a vent from an old Weber charcoal grill. right now i am moving it with a dolly but will end up adding handles on the side and maybe some wheels.
