I am relatively new to smoking and new to the pit but i picked up a Brinkmann smoke n pit professional off Craigslist for free (I know they arent the best smokers but it was the right price and figured it would be good to tinker around with as i learn some of the basics). Pic below are the "before pictures"
I am planning a few modifications in the hope that it will actually produce acceptable results:
1. Sand out rust and paint with ceramic high heat coating (rustoleum)
2. Extend smoke stack to grate level
3. Add a tel tru thermometer at grate level
4. Use a airfryer cookie sheet as a baffle
5. Maybe raise the grates in the firebox for increased air flow and add a damper and ash catcher underneath?
5. Seal with stove gasket sealant/lavalock padding
Any other suggestions or advice would be appreciated! I know its not the best cooker but I am trying to mod it out to something acceptable for $100-200
Thanks in advance
