Beavis69 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Evening. Just finished reading Aaron Franklin’s book, so all motivated to build my own offset smoker. Has anyone built one from a 47kg cylinder? Diameter is 38cm, which seems enough room for a brisket or rack of ribs. Had a look on YouTube, but those builds seem to be bigger tanks. Would be good to get opinions based on an actual build. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoogl Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 I honestly have no idea. Just curious what will you be using as a fire box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Monkey Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 I have made several “Fun” bbqs from gas cylinders, but never a offset. Are you looking to do a reverse flow? As I think you might be tight for space. Are you looking to use a smaller cylinder for the fire box? You will need to use a calculator suggest as Feldons to get the correct size fire box to main chamber size, stack size etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beavis69 Posted January 24, 2020 Author Share Posted January 24, 2020 After reading Franklin’s book, just a straight offset. Going to use a 13kg cylinder as a firebox., as that should be the right size. Just need to confirm the stack size. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
