[@NoxapaterBBQ]

Best one on KZbin! Should have a billion views.

[@BigSerg80]

No better feeling than cooking on something you built. Awesome smoker 👏👏👏

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

That's the truth! haha thank you

[@royj3330]

Awesome awesome awesome!!!!!! Thanks for letting us follow!!! Great job fellas!!!

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

You bet! Thanks!

[@mkestamper]

My hats off to you guys! That is one kick butt smoker. Boston butt that is!! You guys did a excellent job. I admire your accomplishments. Not easy fabricating a 100 gallon smoker, much less a 1000 gallon one. Happy BBQing

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Haha! That's great, thank you! We appreciate it, same to you

[@richardhuff8201]

All I can say is freaking awesome!! Loved watching your build and hope to see some cooks on that beast!!

[@gregorymcqueen1208]

Great video, you guys put in a lot of hard work and it was WellCare thought out. Keep it up!

[@dotpasteur887]

Awesome job!!! Thanks for letting us watch the build

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Thank you!

[@gregorymcqueen1208]

Great job, well done and thought out. Keep up the good work!

[@timtalks8292]

So awesome man . Loved the whole thing enjoy the memories and the biggest smoker I’ve ever seen!!!!!

[@bigjdogg1000]

Well done indeed!!! I love what y’all did and the detailed videos that were made on what it took to make such a beast!! I would like to throw out a few suggestions, 1) if you put a damp cloth or not damp under your cutting board it helps it stay in place. 2) I saw another pit master do this but he used a pump up sprayer to spray the meat which looks like a huge time saver and easier method to keep things moist. 3) you can if you choose to weld on nuts to the outside of your tank that the thermometers can screw into, making it easier to remove and install Other than that y’all did awesome work, looking forward to future videos, thanks!!

[@ZacharyBraxton-m1f]

I like the work ethic. Good work guys. I enjoyed watching. Till next time.

[@gregorymcqueen1208]

That pit is huge, you guys could put a whole cow inside of it. I love it!

[@josephkee1298]

Your videos where fine enjoyed them all

[@djvalleyboy8631]

Hey guys thanks for sharing your post I watched all the videos you posted about the smoker build it was very interesting i learned a lot, congratulations on your new smoker awesome job guys from Las Vegas/Cali 👍🏿.

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Thank you! Much appreciated

[@bigjdogg1000]

Oh yeah and door stops, to keep the doors from opening all the way back, making it easier to shut without having to move that heavy beast through such a full range of motion!! Keep up the great work

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

We appreciate it! I put a cloth under the cutting board for our most recent cook...game changer. And yeah we need to do something about those doors, we're getting tired of having to hold them up the whole time!

[@fabmakebuildcook6274]

Awesome to see this thing cook! Great job on an ambitious project. Might be cold running that thing in the winter in Wisconsin but will be totally worth it! Happy smoking.

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Thank you! It was a handful.. Haha definitely not ideal bbq weather, but nothing we can't handle. Same to you!

[@wooles01]

Well done fellows. Thanks for letting us watch you build the smoker. It looks great.

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

[@josephkee1298]

Nice Work Guys 👍👍

[@JimmyLee0757]

That's a BEAST. Awesome build. If there were no kinks to work out it wouldn't be fun

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Agreed!

[@koltentilley5329]

Awesome smoker ya'll. Great job!!!

[@ericwilliams2056]

[@eastside0434]

Your neighbors way down the road can smell the bbq.

[@larrypeacock4021]

So cool i watched every bideo good job guys

[@JohnLopez-jt1cj]

Dam good job guys, big ass smoker, 👍🏼👍🏼

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Thank you!

[@sawboneiomc8809]

Great job guys!

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Thanks!

[@earlcavenaugh6459]

Great job guys. Perhaps you could put a permanent damper on top of your stack that you can control from ground level. Like a plate on top controlled with a rod.

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Thanks! That's exactly what we plan on doing, hopefully it'll make things a little easier

[@starofgracebbq]

Guys, this was great. I’m in Richmond VA and was excited to see you go through the steps and document what you did. I had recently purchased a old 20’ RV trailer that needs bracing help like yours did along with a couple other things. You have given me a lot to work from and a lot to learn from. Guys, I know your barbaque is going to be great and I can’t wait to see where this build will take you and what you do with it. Can’t wait to see more from you 2 in general. Maybe a video letting us know who you are and what your inspiration was/is.8 Do you have an Instagram account? Love to follow your cooks and accomplishments? Are you going to do a video of any upgrades, pros and cons of your build. Do you have anything you wish you did differently? Thank you again for all your documenting and giveing me the inspiration to do what you did!

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Thank you! That's great, glad we could be of some help. We have some stuff in the works, we plan on posting videos of what we do with the smoker going forward. And we may be able to do something like that. We're still working on our social medias but they are on the way. We'll definitely document changes and additions we make to the smoker. Probably talk about things we like and don't like, few things we would've done differently (like our draft/ash problem). Thanks for the support, and good luck on your build!

[@crjudd]

Nice build, get on Amazon and buy Lavalock black food safe BBQ adhesive. You can put it around the seal of the doors to hold more heat in. Happy smoking, guys!

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Good suggestion, I'm not a fan of all that smoke coming out of the closed doors. Thanks!

[@Thechubbypig918]

Awesome job on the smoker. Don’t spritz the brisket, it hinders the bark from forming.

[@KGPBDKNIGHT]

great build. you could close the thermometer holes again and drill some new ones with thread in it to fit the thermometers

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Thanks! We made them work after we found out the washer on the back was removable. Otherwise that was probably going to be our next move

[@KGPBDKNIGHT]

@@TooMuchBBQLLC regarding fire management you could do something like in this video with a "damper" then it will be easier to manage kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmXInHuhicp4nJY

[@221aaronboss]

I'd suggest watching texicana bbq video on fire management. I know it was super cold but it sorta looked like you were burning a "fast" fire

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Just watched it, thanks for the suggestion. We were definitely getting some of curling flat that he mentioned, we'll keep that in mind.

[@221aaronboss]

@@TooMuchBBQLLC no problem. It's all just continous learning. I appreciate yalls content as I am also building a bigger off. Half the size of yalls but definitely helpful for me

[@DC4LIFE1995]

I stumbled upon your smoker build this morning and must say that I enjoyed watching the progress from video to video. Hope to see more smoking videos in the future.

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Glad to hear it!

[@cheftrilby1]

Too cool guys!! Have any blueprints??

[@LR-me3kc]

This things looks awesome. Super excited for you guys. I’m gonna be sure to follow your ig/fb if you got em. How much of a difference would you guys say your burning compared to what your regularly used to, which I don’t think I heard you mention size

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Thank you! We're still working on getting social media stuff up and running. Before this we used a few different things, mainly an old Oklahoma Joe offset smoker. Comparison wise I couldn't even tell you. We probably run through about 1/3 of a truckload of wood for a 12 to 13 hour cook. Which is way more than what we're used to.

[@kingsofsmokebbq1780]

I just bought a 1000 gallon tank would you give me some insight on things to buy as far as metal

[@elijahthorn6318]

Thank you

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

No problem, thanks for the support

[@harrybarker1408]

lookin good!!!!

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Thank you!

[@hunkenpunken]

Why place the smoker central on the trailer? Are you building a deck in front of it?

[@piratelute8934]

I heard primitive pits was going to go after anyone copying his folding stack, he owns the IP on that

[@davidpearson1641]

Need to add a rest for smoke stack to lay on when folded over for pulling the smoker

[@robertmelascaglia7995]

Thread the hole so you can screw the temp gauge in the steel.

[@SOLDOZER]

No...

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

We were able to make it work after we took off the washer on the back. Didn't know it was removable at first

[@IzzyEatz]

Where did you find the tank????? 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

We got both of them from a friend who buys and sells used propane tanks. Neither of them held propane anymore

[@piratelute8934]

Need a pump up sprayer

[@sawboneiomc8809]

I’m 4 minutes in....LIGHT THE DAM THING!!....I’m impatient

[@jordanbabcock9349]

Some ribs and a pork butt? Wtf is the point of having this massive smoker?!

[@sg6068]

Great build, and it only took 2 years to not finish
