somebody shut me the fark up.
I got this idea after seeing pics from The_Kapn's Chekeeta http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/showthread.php?t=34015&highlight=CHEKEETA
I started with my old trusty 6x12 utility trailer that we've used to haul all our gear for past comps. I got tired (literally) of packing, loading, unloading at the comp, setting up camp, then repacking, reloading and unloading everything when I got home. It was starting to take all the fun out of it. I wanted to haul everything and cook on the trailer. We'll still do our boxes in "the social area" under an EZ-Up on the ground right beside the BattleWagon.
So, I did some catering and some bartering and finally started on this in late March. Our first comp with it will be next wknd in Fredericksburg. Maybe Pitmasters will get some footage of it for TV. :razz:
I couldn't find a before pic but here it is with new metal added to the front to support our tall smokers, and table supports. It was sanded and primed.
Here it is all painted and purty. The kids wanted the work table supports and fenders red. At first I wasn't crazy about the idea but now I like it. Note, the supports face rearward for transport.
Here's the new work station. The smoker will be in the front. The shelves under the work tables are for our 3-drawer cabinets.
The EZ-Up needed to be raised so I made some stilts.
Thanks for looking. I'll give a report after next weekend on how things work out.
