My smokehouse build

[et1702]

Hey Ben,

How's the metal roofing going.  If you need me to bring those longer pieces w/me tomorrow, just let me know.  Awesome build, can't wait to see it.

Take care,

Looks good.  Don't think I could eat that much cheese though!

You'd be surprised how fast it goes. Some will be gifts. My wife and I use it in place of every cheese. Sandwiches for lunch, hamburgers, potatoes, burritos, lasagna, pizzas, every single thing you use shredded cheese, sliced cheese and cubed. My wife freaking loves the stuff.

Roofing starts in a few hours. I don't think I'm going to need anymore but will let you know this evening. Looking forward to tomorrow. Looks to be a little windy so the snake will be more pleasant to break her in.

Are you concerned at all with wind and potentially blowing the unit over?

Awesome build btw.

I have a tiny little concern but the thing is freaking heavy and doesn't wobble when pushed on. Also, I placed it in the corner protected by wind with the fence on the west and south side. I did buy some cable to run from the roof line on the back to the metal fence post. Might install that this weekend to ease my mind. Tomorrow is projected to be mild wind around 20, so I'm curious what kind of movement I'll get.

Just remember, the doesn't blow over there, it sucks.

While waiting on the cheese to finish I knocked out the metal roof.  Not needed at all but I wanted it with a metal roof from the beginning and now I have that.  Once I get the cheese out it will get a wash down.

Cheese is done and ready to rest.  Very pleased with the smokehouse and am glad today's work is over.

Nice I love smoked cheese. 

Your facia board on the down side of your roof is going to take a beating from water with nothing to protect it.

With an average of 5" of rain a year, I'm not concerned with it.  Tricities...

I kinda thought you are on the dry side of the state.

Got my lower grating cut to hold the drip pans.  I also think it's going to work very well for a smoke and heat diffuser with the pans in place.  I will wire wheel and coat in oil before cooking on them.  While doing this I threw a slab of pork belly on the other smoker.  This was the leftover piece from the bacon that I started the cure on to smoke this coming Friday for bacon.
