Check out the new pit my son and I built.
With the construction industry being slow as it is the company I work for has a few old tool boxes setting around the yard.
So why not use one as a BBQ pit.
It measure 5 feet wide 4 foot tall and 30 inches deep.
There is 22 square feet of cooking surface inside between two shelves.
It has a 2 cubic foot fire box that can move the full length of the pit to place the fire any place it is needed.
It has a complete frame inside of it so if needed I can insulate and put another wall inside.

For cooking, lower and slower. For spices, mo' hotter, mo' better. Habaneros rule!

that thing is cool, we had 3 butts, 2 chickens, 6 racks of spares and a brisket in it the other day.   the sucker eats a lot of wood though.

Eats a lot of fuel 'cause it's just thin gauge steel and it bleeds thru the sides. I'd definitly try and insulate it with another sheet of steel on the inside of course. Use mineral wool (rock wool) when insulating it as it allows higher protectiuon against the heat than std fiberglass.

Salad!?! Salad ain't food, it's what we FEED food!

Make friends with a tin bender and insulate it with mineral wool and cover that with the sheet metal on the inside. That would made a good smoker great. ;D ;D
Like I said before, it's the best lookin' gang box I've seen.
