Always wanted to build an offset smoker. What do you guys think? Reverse flow or no? Any tips or recommendations?
 
I reckon it'll work. I'm gonna scrounge for some material and get this things started. Never cooked on an offset so once I get it built wish me luck.
 
Another idea... Have both! If you design it correctly. For reverse flow, you could accommodate the placement of a removable steel plate floor that slides up to the firebox forcing the heat under the floor and down to the other end where it would move up and reverse back to a smoke stack located at the firebox end. For a "straight thru flow" remove the steel plate allowong the flow to travel across the smoker and exit through a second smoke stack located at the end opposite from the firebox. Depending on which system you want to use, just completely shut down one of the smoke stacks forcing the smoke/heat to exit the other...
