my diy smoker....

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Apple wood is great to use.

Nice smoker.
 
nice set up...
 
I'm in love with it.
 
if you think hickory is strong then you won't like mesquite much... especially if you lay it on thick, it will taste bitter.
try out the different fruit woods like cherry and apple, maybe try some pecan. those three are more milder in taste.
For me, it all depends on what kind of meat or what cut i am smoking on what kind of wood i use.
 
Yeah, I dont see a vent. You could cut into the sign and make an adjustable vent pretty easy. Awesome settup, by the way.
