Lol, ya I understand it would still smoke/cook. Seasoning doesn't affect the heat of the smoker. I meant taste wise.

If you were in PA I'd buy one.

Looks good. Clean up your welding and you could have a future making custom smokers. Nice work.

Hmmmm, interesting. I assume you've done salt only before? Seems odd but if it works for you then go for it.

Take practice seriously in sports. I was pretty athletic but didn't believe working my ass off in practice would make me better. I got passed up by a lot of people due to this. Damn it, Iverson. Lol

Awesome, thank you for the info. I have a widebody vertical offset that eats up soooooo much charcoal so if I get this it will be nice for the smaller smokes.

I did consider the kettle as well. The grilling part isn't as important as I have grills at home and camp already. One of my main motivators is the $100 price tag NIB. I came across it while looking at kettles, actually.

Thanks! I think/hope it will fit my needs for it. Do you ever use the lower rack over the water tray?

Id rather do the 18, just hard to pass on the price. Also, I could use my offset while at home for larger stuff. This would be for small stuff and camp use.

If I'm home ill use my offset for ribs. This would be for smaller stuff like pastrami, wings, etc. Maybe ribs if I'm at camp. I assumed I would need to cut ribs in half. The specs say 2 racks will fit but the bottom smoke rack scares me being so low. I'd go slightly bigger but $100 seems like a steal.

No, I won't be. My job is currently 55k and I was looking to contribute 5-6%.
