posted an earlier post regarding this wood, and it is a hickory wood, so it should be ok. Will wait for it to season, for sure.

Just asking, because the guy I got mine from is itching to get rid of ...

is there something wrong with this type of wood for smoking ? someone tell me, because I got a ton of it already from this guy.

This is an add on post to the "what kind of wood is this"
The person I picked this up from had a lot more than I could get in one run. He has a ton more, and will have another tree to cut d ...

saw a listing in craigs list for "Hickory tree cut down, free to pick up"

Whoa... what a difference. I accidently smoked some sliced bacon to perfection on July 4th, to go atop our home made hamburgers. I used hickory chunks, in fireboxes in my gas grill, set on low, with o ...

absolutely excited... love all of the advice, and will definately try the circ saw and fiber disc way. Especially since I am setting 2 of them side by side, I need the straightest cut possible... Figu ...

I am taking all design considerations into account... and probably will start fab this weekend, especially since most of it is cutting, and I don't have a lot in parts. Will have a bit in sand blastin ...

with these ideas (I have the new pack of jigsaw blades ready to go!) I am pondering changes. But, with all of this talking, I got to looking at these kits, and I am looking at about $125 for what I ne ...

exactly. Turn the fire barrel on its side, stack them all on their sides. I am still working on it on paper.

well, after cleaning them up a bit, I went to fit the lids, and only one of the lids actually fits. 2 of them are from some other size barrel, I am assuming a 50 gal or something... they fit tightly i ...

I have considered the kits, and I think I will probably go that way, but I was going to look at what I had around here. I was thinking about hinging the "top" of the fire barrel and having s ...

Plus, I don't mind a bit of ribbing... just seeing the responses took the wind right out of my ...

Well, I am just on the hunt. Found a cool site where a guy made a smoker from 2 waterheater tanks (steel) and a drum (looks like a 35 gal or so)
So I know anything is possible, especially with things ...

guys, go easy on a newbie here, this is why I posted this message, I did not get them, and figured I would ask about them first. I post a message, and wham. You all slam me!
Just looking for advice, ...
