Brick BBQ Smoker

Got some brown sugar spare pork ribs going while I'm cutting a maple from the neighbors yard and dragging it over to mine. Never used maple before. It supposed to be a sweet smoke that's not a very strong smoke flavor. I still have to go get the top branches.

I'm getting something about burying people, possibly masons, and they will be in pieces when they come back in a few years.

There is no rebar. Regardless if how long it lasts, I have learned a lot. There are things I would do differently. If it falls, I will rebuild it. It will be bigger and better.

Last weekend I split enough oak and maple to last a few days. I have a friend that has a handful of apple trees he wants down and another guy at work that's taking down a hickory out of his yard I'm going to get. The two sections on the left are maple and the one on the right is the oak.

where is that "slow clap" emoticon??? that is one excellent looking plate Sir,,,,,,,,,

I cheated and used the gas grill on this one, but...ho-humm, I guess you can't smoke everything. The squash and beans are out of this years garden though.

I've followed this thread since it started. Haven't checked in a while until today. Has 7mm 08 taken over The Taxidermist's BBQ cooker and buried him beneath it?

I still need to add an air vent in the door, but got as far as I could before it got dark. The brick plug I had been using actually broke today as I took it out to build the door. The door can be slid off the hinges if we want to sit by an open fire.

Got started on the air vent tonight. Need to charge the drill again. The more you swing the damper the more holes will be exposed. I still have to drill some more.

I cut off and re made the door latch. It was wobbly because it was just a rod running through the steel door. I made a sleeve from some leftover tubing from the hinges and welded it to the front of the door. That gave the through rod some stability. I made a new T-handle for the latch and centered a horseshoe on it rather than hanging it from the top again so when the handle is pushed in against the spring it goes straight in without binding. The sleeve comes to about the third coil.

What do you folks think? Door handle/tool rack? Yes, no, may be?
