Post by: Ddouble on August 13, 2017, 07:21:49 PM: My Dads over from SA and helping me. He asked how tall should it be. I said as high as I can reach. I'm 6,4ft so it's going to be a beast.

I'm planning on figuring out a duel fuel set up. Predominantly cold smoking from offset burner though.

Post by: Blacklab on August 15, 2017, 01:59:02 PM: I built a propane one and use the amazing pellet smoker for cold smoking.
Title: Re: Smoke House Build
Post by: NRA4LIFE on August 15, 2017, 02:05:54 PM: I do the same thing as Blacklab. Depending on how cold I want it, my A-Maze-In smoker can keep my smoker anywhere from about 75 to 90 degrees. Light one end, 75-80, both ends, 85-90. Depends on the weather outside. I've gone back to electric heat too. More controllable for my big smoker than propane.

Post by: Ddouble on August 15, 2017, 02:53:55 PM: Cool good to know. I have an A-mazen aswell that I use in my BGE just want something with bigger capacity.

I was not planning on it. Just wrapping in cedar.

20/20 hindsight wish I would have. It's works great! Just with the insulation it would work better and more efficiently :twocents: ;)

Post by: Ddouble on August 25, 2017, 10:28:19 PM: My daughter told me that Grandad climbed over the deck railing and stood on top of the smokehouse roof today to show it would hold him... she said it wasn't a good idea... maybe the 70yr old should learn from the 7yr old. I sure hope I'm like my Dad at 70.

And we have a door!
Title: Re: Smoke House Build
Post by: Pegasus on August 29, 2017, 03:42:15 PM: Looks great. Make sure your guests understand that it is a smoker and not an outhouse!
Title: Re: Smoke House Build
Post by: NRA4LIFE on August 29, 2017, 03:52:56 PM: That would not be good. I do like the roof extension, especially for the winter time. The rain is often my smoking nemesis. It's doable, but sometimes not too comfortable.

Post by: n_mathews13 on August 29, 2017, 04:24:52 PM: Needs a moon on it
Title: Re: Smoke House Build
Post by: haugenna on August 29, 2017, 09:58:18 PM: Are you going to bury the pipe or is that going to be running through your workspace in the lean to? You may want to throw a couple elbows in the pipe and bury it in the gravel to keep floor space open.

It's going to have a bench over the top for storing all the wood on. It's heavy insulated stove pipe $350 a 3ft length and I found it at a property so I'm not worried about insulation.
