Very Nice!!  I built one that you can see in some of my other posts.  It is a great time cooking on them.  I sold my latest and have plans for another as a winter project.  I have as much fun building them as I do cooking on it.

Your fire box is great - big enough that you should not need to worry about heat and you could really load it up for a long burn.

Nice looking rig. I like the big flat fire box. When we smoke all night we usually cook breakfast in the morning.

A nice iron skillet full of bacon and eggs sitting on top of the fire box wakes everyone up!!!

Great looking ribs.

Very nice looking rig.  Best of luck with it, so far the meats look awesome.  Great job.

Ben, did you ever go to a shoot in Hopedale, Ohio? That chicken looks as good if not better than I used to eat there........years ago   :notworthy:

Great looking rig and eats you've got there.

Did you put a smoke/heat baffle along the bottom from the firebox that opens on the opposite end. Asking because of smokestack location.

Good looking rig..... what times dinner?
