    Hi, and welcome from Southern Illinois. I built a reverse-flow smoker from a 250 gallon propane tank and I love it! I use it for a church group fundraising event twice a year. We cook pork loins and smoke hams. Next plan to start with a 120 gallon tank for a more stationary smoker. (The original is on a trailer for portability) My wife often comments that I use the 250 for just a small hunk of meat or two. I have seen other stick burners that did not have big enough air inlets for good combustion so I added plenty on first build but do not need them all. After cooking on it several times, main air inlet open 1-3/4" And a firebox stacked full burns @ 225deg for hours. Lots of fun! Great food! Whatever you build it is time well spent.

    Thanks for the welcomes. I will definitely be taking pictures along the way. But what are some suggestions on what type of smoker to build? I haean offset right now, but I was thinking of building a heavy vertical type.

    Welcome to The Pit. Take your time deciding what you want to build. There are many ways to build a smoker and you have lots of decisions to make. Just a few of the types you need to understand in order to make a decision:
    Horizontal
    Vertical
    Offset
    Reverse flow
    Gravity feed
    And combos of the above...

    And when you decide what you want to build, we'd like pictures all along the way.
