Now that my BBQ shack and patio are done, it's time to take the beast for a test-run. Doing 3 racks of spares with cherry wood.

The patio.

I don’t know about a beast, but it’s nice. One of our old pits held about 60 briskets comfortably. I don’t miss cooking shit in numbers of hundreds and thousands.
 
Very slick!!

Build the smoker yerself?

All quite cool stuff. A great place for fellowship with friends!


I need to fire up some pork shoulders ASAP for some tacos!
(Do the cholula binder and cover in my homemade taco blend I saw on the youtube)

Yup. Reclaimed 120 gallon propane tank, handles are old Craftsman wrenches. The firebox handle is a 1/2" ratchet that's teeth were stripped out.

Apparently, since your posting, you made sure all the propane was purged before you started cutting. And you know how to do corn. I wet it well then throw it on just like yours. 2025 minutes and its cooked in its own juice and ready for butter and salt.

well done, nice set up.

Yeah. Filled it with water and drained a few times before cutting, can never be too safe.

I soak my corn in a cooler all day, then toss it on the last hour of the cook. Always comes out perfect.

Just thinking about that corn is making my stomach growl.
