Build a double barrel BBQ

I saw this type of smoker used on an episode of the All-Star BBQ Showdown. It looked pretty impressive, so I had to find out more. I came across this great website with step-by-step instructions on how to build your own “Big Smokey” for just a few bucks. It actually looks pretty easy.

    That is a great looking grill and I am probably going to build one this fall,but I have a suggestion that might improve your design a little bit.I think that if you were to incorperate some type of water tray in the cooking chamber,you would be abel to keep your beef and ribs along with poultry more moist.
    Also I wanted to ask about how you cleaned up the ashes and the meat drippings,and if you had a grate under your coals in the fire box? I like the use of fire bricks in the fire box.I have never seen that done in a cooker.I am from South Carolina and we cook a lot of pig down here and this design looks like it will be a real winner,Thanks,TAZZ

    My husband has one of these smokers and it is on its last bbq, do you know how I can purchase one of these? I would like to give it for Father’s Day.

    Thanks,
