That is straight-up BADASS! Amazing what flames do for something like that. It goes from cool to badass right quick!
@redeyes - I'm in the market for a new smoker and your's looks like the kind I have in mind! What brand is it and where did you get it?
Nothing special but I sure do love to make rubs with my dried pepper powders...
Got a chargriller and did a few mods.
First, I added an 18" extendable grate on the firebox side that fits under the main cooking grates...
This addition will hold the water pans that also act as a heat diffuser to help distribute the heat evenly on both side of the smoking chamber.
Then I added a thermometer on both sides of the lid at grate level to monitor the heat and ensure it's even on both sides. I can adjust the heat distribution by sliding my water pans either closer to the firebox or further away
Then I sealed up all of the gaps with black RTV silicon to hold in smoke and heat. Chargriller is made of light gauge steel, so you'll need help holding in as much heat as you can.
Lastly, I spray the outside down with cooking oil whenever I use it to sort of season the outside and help preserve the paint and inhibit rust/corrosion. That's the sheen you see here on the firebox.
And that's how you turn a $200 Chargriller into a smoking machine! Now let's fire this thing up and get some ribs smoking!

My second prototype...
A bunch of pics: http://pinterest.com...-barrel-smoker/
Now I'm desiging one so that I can rotate an internal drum to more evenly smoke mass quantities of peppers at once. I have to have a welder get involved for that one. Once I have it up and running I'll add more pics.
Aloha
