6x6 Rocket Stove BBQ pit modification food test.

[@curtis9202]

Hi Bob, I still not understand why do you have two chimneys. The left one is for smoke control? If so, then why is it on the left side? If it would be on the right side, it would make the smoke travel trough the whole pit length wise... It's awesome work! God Bless you Bob, and thanks for the tips... I plan to do mine, but it will take some time....

Bob - thanks so much for making these rocket grill videos and God bless you too! How often do you have to add wood to hold the temp at 250 degrees? Could you use this rocket contraption to cook low and slow?

[@bobgarcia142]

Hi and thanks for the compliment. Yes the rocket stove can hold a temperature at 250f only if you can add a damper to control the temperature. Or you can add a little at a time of wood 🪵. And it also depends how large is the pit you’re using. It really works great and burns low and slow 🔥. Wants you reach the right temperature it becomes smokeless. It make the fryer very rotisserie. Be blessed and thanks for the comments.

@@bobgarcia142 great to see you trailblazing this idea! I will send you photo when I am done building mine. What gauge thickness did you use for the steel tubing? I am thinking about 3/16

[@bobgarcia142]

@@nordicwilly6650 Hi Nordic Willy you can use just about any thickness of metal. But preferably use 1/4 “ cause these rocket stoves get very hot where you can actually see the metal turn red. I have never used 3/16 medal. But let me know how it turns out. Be blessed.

I am making a similar style BBQ. My question is: Do you get much smoke to the BBQ or not. I would like to make the grill capable of having a range from a low smoke to a sear. Do you think this is possible?

great setup!

What if I put pine chunks in the rocket stove? Will this afect in the flavor?

[@bobgarcia142]

Augusto Torres yes Mr Torres the only wood that will work for Bbq 🍗 is wood from any fruit tree for best results. Like mesquite, oak trees , hickory, pecan will work the best. Thanks for your comment but no pine 🌲

[@mojox666]

I know maybe this is not the place to ask this, but, I'm planing to build something similar, but I'd like to make it taller, like a vertical smoker but rocket stove powered. Do you think it's possible or not?

[@bobgarcia142]

Yes it could be done it may take a little experimental testing but I believe if you really put your mind to it you will have fantastic results.

[@TheArtpimp36]

I am also using 5×5 square tubing instead of 4×4 square tubing like everyone else has been using. I hope it works.

[@curtis9202]

Have you done it with 5x5 tube?

[@matthewjackson9615]

Temperature got too damn hot, but other than that is seems to work pretty decent.

The result seems not interesting.
