Hi there,I'm new to the society, been on the perimiter looking in. and have decided to jump in
I've been doing pig roasts for 9 years now, and have now decided to increase my repetoire.
I am in the process of converting a 240 gal water bowser into a trailered pit smoker bbq to do texas briskets and butts,
I wondered if anyone else had tried this?

While you are waiting for an answer have you checked out youtube?
Where are you based and what rig do you use for roasting piggies????

High there, I got my ideas from youtube, brilliant research tool. I'm based in east sussex, and have a couple of gas machines in do the hogs in, I know ita not the real deal, but the new machine should accomadated 2 x 70kg pigs

Hi Neil

Welcome to the forum. You have to put pictures up of the smoker when parts of it are done. I have to say it is one of my dreams to do this but need to get the cash together first. I have to say envious. Good luck and talk again soon.

Hi Gav,
Tried to post picture of bowser before we start, but i have to resize it first . The bowser cost £150 , I'm not sure of the final cost tho, no more than £1000, fire box being fabricated at the moment

Sounds great Neil. I have to say you got a good price there for that. I have to say it would be good to see the finished product.
