I have been working on an idea for some time on how to make a charcoal version of the Big Easy so I can compete in comps well here it is!
The chamber sits perfectly in the bottom of the Double Chef smoker base

Here it is with the coals going for the first try

Just to show you the amount of smoke you can get in the chamber

It was way too hard for me to keep it regulated with the water pan and all. Now I know that I don't need that water pan for moisture, and could use it as a heat sink. I got the 30' vertical CB smoker now and I love it. I jsut putit on before I got to bed and check it in the morning. Works great. Your right tho, low & slow is the way to go. Pammie ★*˚°。°

Is that a Brinkman All-In-One? I have a couple of those and I really like them. I use them more for turkey frying and sea food boils (and for lighting my charcoal chimney) now, but I still like to smoke on one every once in a while.
