    I love this sort of thing. Years ago back when I lived down in Texas I had a circular stone fire pit I made from landscape stones and I added a little "fire box" to the side of it, put some chicken wire over the top of the pit, and covered it with a wheel barrow for a lid and made some of the best damn meat ever in that crazy thing

    I'm thinking about building a permanent one on my property. I was considering going the direct heat route and pre burning the wood to coals or possibly charcoal. I've been smoking with my UDS for 25 years and I like it, but it's kind of a one trick pony.

    nice video. Where are the videos of the cooks? Getting the blocks and materials is pretty easy- but it would be good to see this pit in action. I don't know it- but I've heard that these pits take a lot of time and fuel to come up to temp- you have to heat up the ground, you have to heat up the concrete- then whatever it takes for the cook. I want to believe in this rig- I can see it in my back yard but it needs to function as decent cooker or it's just a big lego set. Pork butt, ribs- I'm easy. It doesn't have to put out a world class brisket- but that would be nice too :)

    • @mstuckey311
      @mstuckey311 ปีที่แล้ว

      I would forget the whole off set idea and turn it into a direct heat smoker. He could just stack the blocks up one row higher. It's a good design for a whole hog cooker.

    Great, simple design. Would it benefit heat retention to fill those vertical holes in the outside blocks with something, or even just a piece of plywood between the block levels to prevent any heat in those channels from flowing freely upward and outward?

    • @stradosphere
      @stradosphere 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      With an offset smoker you have a firebox and a chimney opposite side to "pull" or "draw" the smoke through the smoke chamber. Typically the higher the chimney the better the draw. He put the smaller bricks there to close the hole so the smoke wouldn't escape and the cinderblock as the chimney so the smoke is pulled through the holes in the cinderblock
