Stick Burner "Diamond in the Rough" Rebuild

N2Q · 01-07-2013, 04:12 PM

I found this little gem on Craigslist a few weeks ago and pulled the trigger on it... Paid $400. It was made by Texas Smoker Company. All 1/4" steel, 20 x40" pipe.

Cleaned it up real good, sanded it down, Gave it a fresh coat of paint, added some cool touch spring handles, tested the temp dials, seasoned the inside with peanut oil and here she is now...
