Hey everyone!
My name is Caleb and I'm new to the forum. I've been smoking for a couple years all on cheap small vertical charcoal smokers.
I getting ready to build my first offset smoker. I got a tank from a local scrap yard and its about 24''x66''. My dad (a contractor) just got a hot water heater that is still looks in decent shape from the outside. I am thinking about using the tank for the firebox. Now I've ready all sorts of things and some people say its great and others say don't do it due to the coating some of the tanks have on the inside. If I use it for the firebox it should be ok though as long as I burn it out good first right?
