Mulling over smoker designs --
Here's an idea for turning a Weber kettle into a sort of a hybrid offset smoker. It uses hot coals in the top section for direct grilling (perhaps with the firebox door open, or using the barrel vents for heat control), and a fire in the firebox underneath for low-'n-slow. A 30 gallon barrel (the diameter of an 18" Weber) might be just about right as the base for a 22" Weber setup.
(Apologies for the amateurish photo editing )
Has this been tried before? I couldn't find anything similar in the forum anywhere, which might mean either (a) it's a stupid idea, (b) it's so obvious, it goes without saying, or (c) it's utterly brilliant. :wink:
