I need a bigger smoker!

[tamidw]

Making 4 pork butts for Father’s Day lunch tomorrow at our Elks Lodge. They’re too big or my pellet smoker is too small! I went out and told my husband I needed a bigger smoker. I left all 4 on until they got enough smoke, then pulled one and put it in oven so they had room around them. 🤣 I know there’s some room there in front but front to back wasn’t too much.

I think it’s a great excuse to get a bigger one.

Seems reasonable.

[HawkerXP]

Sounds good to me!

You definetely need a bigger smoker. But a workaround might be to cut the one in front in half.

[tamidw]

Thought of that, but decided to utilize the oven too. This way juice collection was easier.

And how did he respond to your request for a bigger smoker?

[tamidw]

I caught him off guard and we had friends over. He said yes. Haha! 🤣

[captainlee]

When does it arrive?

[Draznnl]

I agree. A bigger smoker is definitely in order. But, to expand on RonB ‘s workaround, cutting two in half will let you put one and a half in front and two and a half in back, allowing that much more air flow around everything and leaving you with that much more bark.

I fully support this, and any other expenditure.

I'm all in lets get a bigger smoker!

Do you have room vertically?

On my old Traeger, when I ran out of room, I built a rack out of a wire cooling rack and some 4" bolts and washers and nuts to make legs. Gave me a whole other rack to fit more on above. It was awesome!

Then you could spend your money on another type of smoker... Kamodo/egg style, vertical propane, or a small offset... I see you've already got the griddle aspect covered.

[tamidw]

Not really a huge amount. I’ve thought about trying to add a shelf to stack food though.

[DaveD]

Yes. Yes you do.

[Steve B]

This should fit the bill.

Well, I was gonna help shop…but you got it covered!

[tamidw]

Hmm, that might be a little too big. 🤔

[JLR]

Since you smoke for others, getting a bigger smoker would definitely be an selfless act of love!

[dubob]

This should fit the bill.

Steve, did you leave the price tag of $4,595.00 out on purpose? Hubby might back away on that count.

[Steve B]

It’s a small price to pay for the love of your life. 😁

[dubob]

Well - yah - there is that. 😁

Outstanding observation,,,
