Hey guys,
I am doing my first BBQ trailer build, really my first ever build. I joined the site to get info and ideas, and I found out this is going to be a fun build. My plan is to make a twin tank system 60-gallon air compressor cooking tank with a 30-gallon air compressor tank fire box, to be connected by five 3x3 square tubing air passage. It is going to be an indirect system will a plate that will be removable doing dual function as a diverter plate that can also be used for charcoal grilling.
My big question is this: I plan to weld the smoker box to the trailer frame low enough to get the right angle to vent quickly towards the grill area. I am asking if anyone has done this before (I'm sure someone has) and wanted to ask if the heat to the trailer would be an issue. I understand there will be heat transfer. Later in the build, I am going to build a basket around the front of the trailer, so there will be no metal attached to the fire box directly. I also plan on having an expanded metal plate for the wood to burn on versus on the tank itself.
The pictures I hope to show the attachment points in the pictures. I can take others if needed.
This is a simple mock up, and the blue tank will be raised higher than it is in the pictures.
