Looking at the "Fire Box" that might not be a safe smoker for up here in the mountains.......would hate to have a gust come up and send embers flying  :(

I think you're trying to convince yourself that you don't have to get it. You know you want one!!

OH, I do  8) 8) 8) 8)   just worried about the mountain winds....we had a little fire down the 18 over the weekend and my 30 minute drive turned into 3.5 hours :(

Good excuse to build a man shed for cooking. Maybe run a cord for a mini fridge. Maybe a hammock for Smoochy.....I can see it now.

LOL!! Sounds like a plan

For anyone who's interested
These kids logs are 12-14 inches, too long for the fire box



I cut them in half, perfect fit is 6-8 inches long.
I start with a hot bed of lump Charcoal and two logs.  Then feed one every 40 minutes. Surprisingly very fuel efficient.

How do explain the beautiful color on those ribs? Looks like the Smoke ring went all the way to the bone. Very cool.

You only get these type of results (imho) when using only wood for your heat/smoke source. This Karubeque is one serious pit  8) 8)

And the aroma brings me to tears.
I can't explain anything without cussing.

I am just stunned and at a loss for words
- cool looking smoker
- but even more impressive, unbelievable looking food

Congrats on a good find.

Now how do I convince the wife that I need another upgrade????
