1000 Gallon Offset Smoker Build Part 8 - Building an insulated firebox

We start putting together the insulated firebox.

I think I would have just squared off the end of the tank and the firebox and welded them together offset.

I'd like to see how you do the layout for mating the firebox to the cook chamber.

[@CodeyMikes]

Nice build!

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Thank you! We most definitely got some inspiration from you guys

[@CodeyMikes]

@@TooMuchBBQLLC thank you! it’s bad ass man can’t wait to see how it looks. Always have wanted to try the inner like that. I just couldn’t picture the throat part. But it looks like y’all got it.

How much to have one built?

[@RichWyatt1]

Would you please tell me where you got your insulation thanks

[@jeffbrush5089]

Why don't you buy a sand blaster

Hey brother it's your barbecue but I just got a question why didn't you just make the Box on the outside it would have been easier

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

Thats a great question honestly. We thought about that for awhile but the main issue would've been size. Both the inner and outer box would be too big. We didn't need any more weight on the back end of the trailer. And we would've paid a lot more for the material. Plus we just kind of like how the round firebox looks.

@@TooMuchBBQLLC fair enough. looks good though nice build

What kind of paint stripper did you use?

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

It was called Ready Strip advanced...definitely a little messy. Here's a link. www.amazon.com/Back-Nature-658G1A-Advanced-Varnish/dp/B07JZG7J19/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1SENZOUQYNYLY&dchild=1&keywords=ready+strip+paint+remover&qid=1618610478&sprefix=ready+strip+pai%2Caps%2C192&sr=8-3

What did you all use to insulate the firebox.

[@TooMuchBBQLLC]

We used some high temp ceramic fiber insulation that we bought on amazon. Rated up to 2400 degrees F. Seems like its usually used in wood stoves and things.
