Sourcing a Grill for a homemade barrel smoker.

Postby Jimmyshepps » 25 Nov 2015, 18:14

Hi
I'm Jim
I've had a smoker built. One oil drum above an another. I have a grill in place in the drum acting as the fire box to accome date fire. I need to source two more grills for the smoment chamber . One to accommodate food one to sit below in the smoking drum to accommodate fire, so it can act as a stand alone bbq. I am struggling to source grills of adequate dimensions for a full drum.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Jim

Should work fine so long as you have protruding grate supports long enough
