After many years of looking, talking to owners, talking to manufacturers, wishing, and researching what would best fit our needs, we have ordered a Bates Custom Pit.

Here are a few pictures of the early construction of our new Bates Custom Pit that is being built by Lone Star Custom Pits and Grills. Steve and Tom have been GREAT to work with and have always been Johnny on the spot to answer emails, return phone calls, etc. Just a real pleasure to work with and from the looks of things, they are building one fine pit

Thanks Steve and Tom and I will post more updates as I get them. Hopefully we will be picking us this "monster" :eek: in mid-May.

You gonna feed the 81st airborne with that?
Looks like its gonna be a nice rig.
 
I see where you're going, planning on using it to teach fire behavior classes so you can get the tax write off huh? Good thinking there Chief! I'm a Compartment Fire Behavior Instructor so I can come down and help you with that, of course it'll cost you some ribs, brisket, Guinness, and Scotch!
 
Now, that is what I called a smoker it looks great. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
 
Man that's huge. Is that gonna be for a restaurant or something?

Wyatt, when you get ready to order yours, just tell them you want one bigger than the Chief's. Next year for your birthday ask for donations to your pit fund.

Don't forget about the 3 sinks with hot water, fold down roof system, and 600 watt lighting system. It's a dandy.

You must be the builder? Looks good. Obviously, if you want a BIG smoker, it has to come from Texas.
