    That is SO COOL! Ingenious rack system. I'm gonna make a prototype out of 2x4's and try it out.

    But honestly - I am going to lower my chimney flues in everything I can. This is the first time I've seen that.

    I've been modding all day yesterday - and DARN IT - it's pouring today.

      I like the no weld design...

      however...

      While I am a fan of the OKJs I feel like if you buy them at full retail, start modding them to seal them up, and then start modding them for air flow, and then start doing stuff like this that you are knocking on the door of the cost of a small EOS. These are best value at the end of the year when they are on clearance....

      Not going to lie though I would love to try the reverse flow Longhorns they have now that can also be regular offset... Also would like to see how their vertical offset does.

      Nice! I have a COS that I have modified to seal up the leaks, put a damper all the way across the bottom with cutouts for smoke to roll and made a free standing second rack for more cooking area. I can put wood/charcoal in the bottom for indirect cooking and/or use the offset fire box. I'll post pics one of these days. I also added two thermometers, one at each end, to monitor heat. COS was about $100, mods about $60.

      Nice! You might also consider making the top rail of each side support a U-channel so the the top rack can slide in and out without fear of it tipping.

      That rack idea is fantastic! I welded angles for an upper in my longhorn but since the bottom doesn't slide out it makes it inconvenient reaching the bottom back meats.

              If you have a Weber Kettle, you need the Slow 'N' Sear

              slow n sear
              The Slow 'N' Sear turns your grill into a first class smoker and also creates an extremely hot sear zone you can use to create steakhouse steaks.

              The Good-One Is A Superb Grill And A Superb Smoker All In One

              the good one grill
              The Good-One Open Range is dramatically different from a traditional offset smoker. By placing the heat source behind and under the smokebox instead of off to the side, Open Range produces even temperature from left to right, something almost impossible to achieve with a standard barrel shaped offset.

              Griddle And Deep Fryer In One

              Pit Barrel Cooker Smoker
              The flat top does the burgers and the fryer does the fries. Use the griddle for bacon, eggs, and home fries. Or pancakes, fajitas, grilled cheese, you name it. Why stink up the house deep frying and spatter all over? Do your fried chicken and calamari outside. Blackstone's Rangetop Combo With Deep Fryer does it all!

              The Pit Barrel Cooker May Be Too Easy

              Pit Barrel Cooker Smoker
              The PBC has a rabid cult following for good reason. It is absolutely positively without a doubt the best bargain on a smoker in the world. Period. This baby will cook circles around the cheap offset sideways barrel smokers because temperature control is so much easier.

              The Thermoworks Thermapen MK4 is considered by the pros, and our team, to be the single best instant read thermometer. The MK4 includes features that are common on high-end instruments: automatic backlight and rotating display. Don't accept cheap substitutes.

              Grilla Pellet Smoker proves good things come in small packages

              We always liked Grilla. The small 31.5" x 29.5" footprint makes it ideal for use where BBQ space is limited, as on a condo patio.
