Time to get a smoker...

[Ah Pook]

After reading this thread, yesterday, I started googling different smokers.

THANX GREY!!!

I've always wanted to build my own but since I still don't have one, this might be a sign that it's time to look at production smokers. A $1000 plus smoker is not in the near future.

The Char-Griller Smokin' Outlaw Charcoal Grill looks interesting. Comes in at under $300. Ample grill surface and a large fire box. Adding some propane burners to the left side would take care of the everyday grilling.

For those who can't leave well enough alone, here is a 20 page thread of mods to the smoker.

I had one, they work well if you go through and seal the air leaks, and the heat baffle mod

Living in bear country and a wind tunnel, latches on the lid would be the first mod.

Look into that same company. They make a dual setup with a gas grill on the left side with a sep. gas burner to boil on, then on the right it has a charcoal grill that you can attach a smoke box to. I have one so I can use the gas for quick meals and charcoal when I want to do some good steaks.

A bit late to the party buuuuuut.......we have the CharGriller Duo, very similar to the above but on the left is an additional section that is the gas grill. Great combination. Before I put the side firebox on smoking meat was a pain, I had to use 1/2 a roll of foil to try and channel the smoke. Temps were anywhere from 200-350-a mess.
Added the firebox, got some hi temp silicon and sealed it up. Smoked ribs and brisket for the 4th, temps stayed right at 225.
