I have alot of small drums (18 gallon) I think. Has anyone tried making a smoker out of these? With the do it your selfers on this web site that is probably a stupid question.
 
27.5 tall 14.5 o.d. would be perfect for small smokes chicken,burgers,apps or anything for 4 to 5 people.
 
I have at least 10 here and can probably get more for the asking. I was sure someone here had alredy tried it. The ideas I've seen on this site are unreal many many highly intelligent and creative brethern here.
 
I knew some one here had done it. did I see 2 racks in that? how well does it hold temp?
 
Yup, two racks, the Smokey Joe fit, but I found the cheaper Charbroil fit as well and is somewhat taller. Temps hold like a rock, just need to get in and out in a hurry. I usually remove the racks with the food on them if I need to flip or add MOINKS, Abt's.
 
How far up off the botom is the 1st rack? just started my 1st one today may do 5 or six if they really work
 
I just placed mine 1/2" above the first ring from the top.
