    We built one like that back in the year 1990 and cooked a hog. It was delishous. We started cooking at midnight and cooked until mid day. We feed fire coal from a fire beside the pit.

    Great set of videos! The metal you're using, I'm guessing it isn't galvanized?

    Wow! That's the most economical whole hog/ feed the masses smoker you can make! I liked the tip about cutting the grooves for the bars and the simplicity of using boards as intake dampers. Insulating it with a moving blanket sandwiched between the corrugated roofing metal is another good tip. B&B charcoal is the good stuff! Thanks for the video!

    Galvanized metal isn't food safe at ALL when heated. Yikes.

    Question, as I understand it Home Depot and other retailers treat their metal with zinc to prevent rusting, wouldn’t the heat potentially release the zinc making the food unsafe to eat? If I’m wrong then happy smoking!

      That is a legit concern - make sure the steel you buy isn't galvanized.

      Burn what ever coating is on the rebar off and use a wire brush to clean it off and you’re good. Just season them with pork fat and you’re good.

      Always always always (even store bought grills, smokers, etc) do a hot seasoning for the grill. Just like you do for cast iron pans.

    How high should the cooking grate be above the coals?

    • @BBCharcoal
      @BBCharcoal  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Marcio's typical rule is 30 inches at minimum. Keep in mind that the fire will never be directly underneath the hog always placed on all four corners of the block pit.

    Im an executive chef with a degree and from Charleston SC. First off, the galvanized tin is a no go. Use a refrigerator box or two sprayed with pam as a cover.
    Second on the first layer if bricks you must leave air holes. Works much better. Nice pit, for someone who doesn't do this for a living....

    • @ed0985587
      @ed0985587 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Wouldn’t air holes promote flame (fire) rather than smoke traditionally used for bbq and give more of a “grilling” effect? I think this is how that works with fire pits, but I’ve never made a pit like this for smoking..
