I’d been meaning to document my barbecue education for quite some time and figured there’d be no better way than to start from the ground up!
So, I followed @jirbybbq ‘s video to build my very first offset smoker for around $300 dollars!
I used:
54 cinder blocks 6X8X16 inch
4- 24x24 inch expanded steel grates
4- 2 1/2 x 48 inch steel bars
1- 48x48 inch aluminum sheet
1- 48x48 inch plywood
I found everything at Home Depot except for the expanded metal grates. Link below the description!

Dude this is awesome! I’m gonna be watching every video! Love it
Jonny!!!! Appreciate it so much dude, that means a lot. Excited to finally get things rolling.
The cinder block asmr scene was beautiful. Just like you 🥶🥶🍎🍎🐶🇺🇲🏔🐑🐐
🙏🙏🙏😂😂😂
Me sitting here with a perfectly good electronically controlled gravity fed wood and charcoal smoker thinking, “I need one of these! man this would be a fun project!”
Hahaha! Exactly I cut my teeth on a Traeger and I’m just not 100% ready to spend a bunch of money on an offset- so this definitely will do the trick for now! The process of actually building it may be the most cathartic part for sure though….
Until I cook pork belly on it haha
Love this! I'm trying to figure out how I can make a smaller one right now. I want to make one that is just big enough to cook 1 or 2 briskets at the most, and not take up my entire very small back yard. Like no bigger than the size of a regular back yard stick burner, only a couple hundred bucks instead of a couple thousand lol.
I like your smoker, you're really kicking your barbecue game to the next level!
Thanks dude! Definitely an interesting challenge. More work than a pellet grill :)
Nice! Start. I’ll be tuning in!!
Appreciate it!!! Gonna have a lot of fun cooking on this beast!
@@BarbecueElementary I bet man!! I jelly. Probably going to build my own next year. Excited to have someone putting in some miles on one and learn from.
Dangggg dude. Totally exceeded my expectations! Keep it up!
Appreciate it G!!! Imma do my darndest!
Wait you didn’t say how the right way is to run the fire
Exactly what I'm wondering.
Ain't the prettiest thing in the world, but pretty doesn't make amazing BBQ. Looking forward to more!
Definitely- gotta get my cooking chops broken in before I invest big!
Did you do all the editing and everything?great first video
All me!!!! Little help worth the thumbnail and received tons of advice and inspiration from a ton of friends but otherwise all home brewed!
Thanks for checking it out!
Omg I’m going to build this I love this video so much!!! Will build this weekend do I need to buy certain cinder blocks!?
Ya! 8x16x8 will work way better than the 6x16x8 I ended up with!
@@BarbecueElementary awesome just regular cinder blocks?

Thank you so much man really appreciate that when you put the charcoal and wood down once you start it do you cover it with a steel plate? Like a lid?
Also when you plug in the teltru do you just drill a hole? And let it sit or did you bolt it I. The back to make it stay?
Are you going to install some dampers to help regulate air flow? I think it's pretty important to help you hold and maintain temp.
Funny you should say that- I wrapped a piece of cardboard with aluminum foil to dampen the chimney and used an extra block for where the “door” opens (and just slid to cover ) when needed for the first cook. However it runs like a dream (mostly) wide open! I’ll make sure there’s a good visual of what I used in the next video! Thanks!!!
