I think we're just going to make basic latches. Nothing fancy!

I felt a 3rd hinge was a must. Everything is square, door fits and seals well. It was a little taller than I expected, but its fine. I won't have to reach over my head to pull out the top grate so that's just about perfect!

Have you used these in the past? I'm in need of one for my smoker and on Amazon there's a few reviews that say don't buy this brand.... Are those just the normal crazy people that don't know what they are talking about

I've heard nothing but good things about River Country. They were recommended by quite a few people here which is the reason why I bought River Country!I'm sure that is just those crazy few people that might have had issues and what not!

Here's my question about these temp gauges! How do you tell if they are accurate? Just run the cooker with oven thermometers and see if they are close? I'm pretty sure they are spot on straight out of the box

Nothing wrong with River Country gauges. Lots of pit builders use them. If Paul Shirley uses them they must be pretty dang good.

Test them in boiling water then check them against the oven thermos too.

It's almost time! My buddy cut the firebox door, intake, firebox hole that goes through to the cook chamber. Made handles and latches. Starting to look like a smoker! It's going to look awesome all painted up!








Still have the shelves, exhaust, paint. Then it should be good to go!

That's what I said! Its looking pretty good! Here's a shot of the firebox and grate. Smitty I went with a single sheet of the expanded metal. I really like the set up though. Might have to scoop out the ash after ever cook but that takes just a minute or two.
