Ok, it's finished, backyard smoker with pictures

[farmgirl19]

Don't tempt me, Allen! :laughing: Only in Texas is 300 miles not considered much of a drive! I used to make a trek to Big Spring almost every month, and back then, I think Speed Limits were 65! You aren't that much farther!

Yep. it's Dickeys cups. My wife likes Dickeys and she always keeps the cups. Good for drinking beer in the barn but I can see how you would be skeptical. but just so you know, I think everything at Dickeys sux. These truly are ribs that my son and I cooked.

You know, my wife keeps every plastic cup, Sonic, Dairy Queen, Dickeys, whatever and every plastic butter tub, or anything that has a lid that she gets. My cabinets are full of that stuff. Drives me crazy. "I" on the other hand buy the good stuff, red solo cups to be exact and the red plates ain't bad either. She also keeps every grocery bag and walmart sack. Somebody help me...

PS, next time I will post pics of the meat on the grill. Just to remove all doubt ya know.

HA! Dickey's BBQ? I worked at the Dickey's BBQ in Plano Texas in 1973. That was something I had forgotten. I remember Bill Dickey would give me a ride home after work. I would come in the house smelling like a rack of ribs.

These are picks of my first reverse flow smoker with food and the first generation automatic temperature control.

 

[farmgirl19]

So jw; When are you hosting us to a bar-b-q? (Neat set up!)

I'm gonna call a rule, if you post pics of your unit and food, you have to invite us for the next cookout! :licking:

OK, sugar, you are even farther from me than some of the others. What part of this am I not making clear? :laughing:

However, bbq; if you want to give me one of your old ones, since you build more, I might make allowances for you, being new and all!

JW My 9 footer was reverse flow. It worked well but took too much wood and too long to heat up.

LOL the rest of this thread is making me laugh. (at farmgirl)
