New smoker

GOHOGS · 02-13-2013, 07:38 PM

I'm a new member and I'm relatively new to the world of BBQ. Got an electric smoker for Christmas 2 years ago and now I'm obsessed! Last year I bought a couple cheap offset smokers and did a couple competitions. I'm planning on doing more this year and had a few key ingredients laying around to build my own smoker so here it is almost finished! I've been working with my 77 year old grandpa in his old shop and its almost time to build a fire in this bad boy!
