Barrel smoker build

[@BeThouMyVisionRadio]

As a frequent customer of his, I can say that as great as Allen's vids are, they don't do justice to his finished products. The guy is an amazing craftsman, and I ain't blowin' smoke, but am a competitive smoker myself. His work is the real deal and his pricing is lower than anyone's. The only drawback is that a craftsman this good obviously has a waiting list. So put your money down and get on it!

[@Allensweldingwoodworking]

BeThou MyVisionRadio thanks! I appreciate that!

[@kyletracey5819]

Great build !! First thing you need to do is SMOKE THAT ROOSTER ! His days are numbered ! We can hear him squawking, he knows hes going on that smoker ! Was a great vid to watch ! Thanks for taking all the time to vid to share with us all ! You rock ! Keep on smoking. Cheers from CANADA bro

[@workingout36]

From one welder to another you do some awesome work!! You cut with a torch like its a plasma cutter. Im glad I came across your video's!!

[@davidfusco6600]

In all of your videos, the quality of your work is outstanding!

[@bushmancustomsuganda98]

I actually enjoy watching your builds. I've built 23 barrel Grills myself and I'm currently working on my first Smoker... after cutting out the door I kind of wanted to leave it as a sliding door, but it kept scratching on the paint which sucked, so I went with the conventional door but now I'm not feeling it that much anymore lol.. but the build must go on

[@tamarabrown519]

I've seen a lot of barrel grills made......Hands Down yours are the best I've seen AWESOME JOB

[@heatherrigby7371]

Brilliant as always Allen. You make everything look simple even though it is not as everyone who actually uses tools knows. Take care and thanks for the Brilliant content. Thanks again Donnie

[@billsheffield4572]

Pleasure watching you work, you make it all look so easy. If only I could weld I would attempt to make one or something resembling yours but I cannot weld worth a damn.

[@jlpowell8432]

Only thing I would change is exhaust exit at grate level whether a collector or not is a big deal. Damn fine work here! I found a barrel completed with a diamond rack grate and stand just no offset box or stack yet for 150.

[@minerdad02]

Hello once again from Northern Ontario Canada great channel still appreciate your work

[@nevillechapman9761]

This bloke is just so cool. The fella is making stuff, really. Wish I lived next door.

[@Lord_Tazz]

Allen all I can say is ty that is a damn awesome pit and I truly love it and I haven't recieved it yet, I will show a cook on it and tag you so you can see this beast work, again your build's are awesome and it's a honor to have this smoker built by you. I have enjoyed every build you have done and of course this will be my all time favorite thank you again

[@Allensweldingwoodworking]

Miguel Aldiva you are very welcome! thanks!

[@Unplugged_Bits]

Awesome work Allen. Thanks for sharing this creative work.

[@MrSnoopius]

hey bro I just welded a grate for my smoker just by watching your videos... thank you for your examples. great vids man. God bless

[@JimmyLee0757]

Allen I enjoy watching your videos and learning from a master craftsman. When I grow up, I want to be s good as you :D

[@tulrnr]

Nice !! Lower plates are great idea.

[@robinsonalvarezbolanos9506]

thanks for the inspiration I made my smoker from a barrel and a few pieces of scrap metal ... thanks from Timbío Cauca Colombia

[@jimgam730]

Nice build Allen. Those tuning plates in there make like a reverse flow smoker. Where the smoke travels under a solid plate down to the other end of the smoker coming out a vent and the stack is on the firebox end. I like the idea of using those seperated plates like that.

[@Allensweldingwoodworking]

jimgam730 thanks! yes those plates will give you a few heating options, depending on how you move them and if you take any out

[@Torryn592]

Allen's welding/woodworking I would love to get on just like this love everything about it how to I go by ordering one from you.

[@lawrencebecht660]

Great job Allen as always

[@kyletracey5819]

I subscribed and liked. Next is ,,,, hit the share button ! You rocked this build. Very professional looking rig at the end of the day. You need to add a name plate or something on that bad boy. 👍 Thats a big thumbs up good buddy.

[@alsairafi91]

The best haphazard smoker build I have seen recently

Nice nice work bud I got 3 barrels I need to put to use

[@ghassanghawanni]

[@stevesyncox9893]

The chickens sound like they are laughing when you talk about the blown up barrel.....🤣

[@rvalcourtpersonaca]

Great build Allen! Nice to see you're wearing at least one glove while welding.

[@Allensweldingwoodworking]

Richard Valcourt thanks! yes the gloves come and go, I don't have them on as much as I should

[@tufff3503]

Like always best BBQ smoker keep up the good work Allen

[@luispalomo6587]

Damn... Thats one nice barrel smoker...

[@billp3914]

Picasso I’m that’s beautiful Reminds me of my uncle He could build anything as a welder his whole life

[@kennymysak2079]

it turned out great. keep up the great videos

[@stovar1182]

Damn, that came out nice 👍🏽

[@avihaimel]

Hi, grate videos!. is there a video explaining the basic design rules of a BBQ smoker, I was thinking of building a small one.. after watching a few of your videos I can understand the basic design, but I'm sure there are a few do's & dont's I should follow.

[@georgerushing253]

Always enjoyed your projects. I just uploaded a couple of videos documenting my smoker build.

[@4seasonsbbq]

Once again Allen a great looking build, you do fantastic work. What does a pit like this cost? I live in Iowa and as far as i know nobody does this kind of stuff around here.

[@stephenspain6186]

Awesome work. I was wondering where do you get your latches for the doors

[@bohaggin5913]

Looking good! looks like you changed argon bottles during this one too. from Orange to grey

[@Allensweldingwoodworking]

Bo Haggin yes I did, had to get all my bottles changed this week

[@eastside0434]

This guy needs a go fund me page set up so he can get a real nice shop for the quality work he turns out on a regular basis.

[@josephscott5359]

Wow dude you're freaking awesome just finding your page the other day so this is the second one I seen you make I'm a fan if you're still doing this I'd love to buy one and support you and how did the shipping work do you use a freight company or does buyer arrange shipping?

[@stefandanifeld427]

The perfect barrel smoker!

[@Sc1Z]

some artists use a brush, some use a welder :D

[@jmvmike]

I’m in the process of building my own smoker and I really appreciate you posting these videos and you are giving me some great ideas. What kind of paint do you recommend using on a grill! Thanks and Merry Christmas to you and yours!

[@Allensweldingwoodworking]

Rust-o-leum high temp bbq paint, you can get quarts at home depot

[@jmvmike]

Allen's welding/woodworking Thank you

[@williebgoodtoot]

My dream smoker. I wish I could afford one but living on a budget now. Great job though. I could showcase it for you in Northwestern Pennsylvania.

[@vatoslocos2167]

Love your craft Sir.

[@beenay18]

Why is the vent put at the top of smoker? If it is put at the bottom of smoker the cooler smoke at the bottom would escape and the hotter smoke at the top will stay. Wouldnt it be energy efficient that way?

[@willisbond4806]

Love that design!!

[@wildrootsfarm1975]

Well done. Great work.

[@bo6855]

Nice video and good work.. what’s the measurement for the firebox(burn box)

[@Allensweldingwoodworking]

You could make it any size you want

[@greghay7966]

I admire your video. So awesome. I have a question what is the type of expanded sheet metal that you use for all your grills?

[@robertvanevery1609]

That's badass Man. I'm looking into building my own

[@purpguy69]

Looks great dude! 👍👍👍👍

[@alfredvega8633]

Wedges. Stick em in as you cut. Keeps the wood off blade and better saw dust removal

[@alexanderbridgesjr.7416]

What the cost to build one like and ship.

[@jjasonn1000]

GREAT WORK MAN ,KEEP IT UP

[@hookemups6710]

loved it.. sometimes life gets in the way....

[@Domster19888]

Can you ship to Canada? lol great work!

[@jeremygourde9880]

Cool build as usual

[@showme....6043]

What size angle do you use for the frame for barrels? Thank you

[@pajarroto]

Hi!! nice work, I just went through your video as I have a barrel too. I imagine that since you made the video you had time enough to test it. I wonder how that thin barrel works out in terms of fuel consumption? does it need lots of wood to keep temperature?

[@johnfogle2690]

Could you used a ark welder in stead a wire feed welder

[@uriel-heavensguardian8949]

Awesome video!!!!!!

[@chrisistre9303]

another great pit love to watch you at work. you make it look easy !

[@Allensweldingwoodworking]

Chris Istre thanks!

[@dnardmackey1038]

Allen need to know where to find the expansion metal to build my meat rack and also to do the burn box I've checked at Lowe's and a lot of other stores and really can't find it I need your help please

[@timlewis6777]

What did u use for flat metal around the door

[@travisshrewsbury7169]

looks great man

[@jfennell32]

Awesome. I would like one

[@marcoacevedo6240]

Hi Allen bad azz smoker what size plate would you recommend for a fire box ,going to try to make one. Thanks

[@antigosevalorizados5774]

Parabéns, belo projeto.

[@sanchomorris8041]

How much and do you ship to Illinois? Very nice work!

[@nu-waveutilitytrailers3308]

This is American Ingenuity at its finest

[@janicechatmon4967]

Hi Allen! My husband wants on of your Grills, Is there a website that he can go to for purchasing one?

[@michaelwoods7854]

Do you use stainless steel mesh for your grill racks or just standard galvanised mesh

[@tevinscaggsable]

Hi Allen I have a few questions I made a pit from 16 gauge really thin stuff do I season it b4 paint and after paint should I start a fire in my cooking chamber when I do it

[@OrionsAnvil]

Hey just found your channel and really appreciate your how too vids, great stuff. I have an old barrel grill that I've had for years and want to add an offset firebox. Its about 30" wide by 20" diameter. What size firebox do you recommend foe something that size?

[@stevesyncox9893]

A 30 pound propane tank is the right size. Use all precautions to cut, fill with water.

[@mothernature12]

Sir, your a Genius.

[@LR-gy9zf]

Looks great! what do you sell one of those for?

[@frankinpattaya]

Allen what’s your view on a reverse flow or the standard models you build, what is the better one in your idea. Regards Frank ps, how’s the cooking channel going ?

[@breevesnbd]

Great work Allen. What angle did you cut top of the legs to sit the barrel on?

[@coolguybrar]

can we bbq directly on charcoal in this barrel?

[@lennystephen9553]

nice work do u ship to phila pa

[@guerd87]

How do these compare with the plate versions? Obviously quicker to build but is it worth the extra work to go with 3/16 or similar size plate?

[@gregorywomack6142]

another great creation, how much for a job like this one?

[@Allensweldingwoodworking]

Gregory Womack one like that is $400, price would be less with a smaller fire box and one rack

[@lennystephen9553]

Allen's welding/woodworking nice work do you ship to phila pa

[@Setitoffful]

No offense sir, but I wouldn't sell it for $400.....$600.00 minimum.... you are to talented to work at that rate.

[@berniemac8413]

DooNoVann T I hope he’s increased his prices.. he does GREAT work!

[@newtuthis1]

Want one of these just like this build what’s a rough price to Wilson NC

[@deadwait6201]

That's really nice. What kinda metal did you use for the fire box.

[@tonygresham2634]

How much?

[@metalrott324]

how much is something like that?

[@zulu4echo483]

Are you able to ship to West Texas?

[@keith7023]

What size wire do you use to weld these barrels

[@mickholgate3347]

awesome stuff Allen, what would something like this one be worth to buy?

[@Allensweldingwoodworking]

Mick Holgate thanks! this one as it is would be $400, price would vary depending on how you would want it

[@Eddi369]

hey nice video man!

[@roberthanna4917]

great job

[@roderickwalker7168]

ALLEN YOU ARE A GREAT WELDER. ARE YOU SELF TAUGHT OR DID YOU GO TO WELDING SCHOOL?

[@michaeldiaz4031]

Great work. How can I get in contact with you for business inquiries?

[@robertverduzco4351]

What's one like this cost

[@nelsonmyers2650]

Awesome thank you

[@showme....6043]

I have a 125 Titanium Welder. 110V. Do you think I will be able to work on barrels with it?

[@Allensweldingwoodworking]

Yea should be able too

[@showme....6043]

Thank you for responding and I love watching your videos. Keep up the awesome job.

[@tommyroberts867]
