[QUOTE="Ready_fire_aim, post: 4073344, member: 50626"] It’s all about how much you want to spend. What is your target budget? I have been around some pretty nice huge home built smokers before. I bought a couple too.. But honestly, usually they aren’t that great. Often times the lids don’t seal up very well, the vents are crap, etc… the person making them needs to be a damn good fabricator and have experience or else the smoker will have flaws I’ve had pretty good luck searching around online and finding old used offsets. Old oklahoma joes(back when they were actually heavy steel, nothing made recent), old new braunfles, old chuckwagon brand, lifetymes, etc… there was a lot of high quality smokers coming out of Texas in the 90s through the late 2000s Every now and then you can find them for sale on craigslist, and buy them for a fraction of the cost of new. Make sure the firebox isn’t rusted out. Even better if it was stored under carport or porch. I bought these two cookers for $100 each. 1/4” thick steel, great fitment on lids/vents.. etc. would be pricey to buy a new equivalent [/QUOTE]
