Well i'm keen to try these ribs of American daves, but i was not happy to just use a oven to cook them, true americal style ribs an slow cooked for 3 to 4 hrs ........So here is my smoker.

.....
I got two barrels off Joe (Ballsac) and got them sand blasted. (auto blast myaree)
Cut the end off one barrel
Cut the corners off, quite a lot of trimming was required
, this was time consuming.
test fitting, must of done this 30 times,
welded them together and ground the welds back (a little) this was only the start.
Welding, now please note i have done very little welding.
I have used an old brazier as a fire basket, modified it so its easier to load the charcoal
Now i added a door to the bottom barrel to allow access to the fire.
Not finished yet but thought i would post some pics.
