- Paul and Bob build a BBQ smoker for the upcoming Labor day weekend! We were excited to have David Dan from David Dan BBQ in Texas on our podcast a few weeks ago, where he gave us advice on the build and also some recipes to try. Bob had a decommissioned air compressor tank and the guys found other pieces from just around the job for this build. They had a lot of fun welding this up! We are excited to say that there is a blog with all of the details and how to build this yourself as well as some great recipes to try. The blog is live on our site here: www.weld.com/blog

Thanks for the project video, seems doable with a minimum of tools and maximum delicious results.
Exactly what we were aiming for! Don't forget to check out the blog for some recipes for a bbq smoker as well.
@@Welddotcom heading over now, thanks for the reminder.
Delicious results indeed 👍
Great Craftsmanship fellas, my question is? Did you install any kind of grate/rack in the firebox, i.d.k. either way just asking, and approx.thickness of the diamond plate carbon steel thanks. Tony S. 27 YEAR BOILERMAKER/COMBO PIPE WELDER . Love the work, you guys remind me of my 10 year welding partner. Great times. Starting my build soon.🇺🇸👍🏻
@@KEN-Woodworking yes sir, sorry I failed to mention we used some 2"x2" square tube tacked to the bottom of the fire box and set a piece of removable ¾" expanded metal on top of that for air flow under the fire.
This is the type of video the average guy wants to view. A project that he can make in his garage and use on a regular basis at home. Nice build. Keep doing project videos we can learn from.
Exactly! The tip with the aluminium angle bar is gold, I always have problems cutting straight
I like the complex/harder stuff they put are useful cuz everything else should come easy after that’s learned. which is exactly why they can this is so quickly cuz they got the hard skills on lock
👍👍👍
I’m not sure who needs to hear this but keep your head up fam. Things will get better for you and your family. I used to have 5 brain tumors but now I only have 2 left to go. In the past I lost my hearing, had thoughts of suicide at one point, and I even have seizures sometimes but everything I went through wasn’t strong enough to kill me and if you’re reading this that means that you’re still here for a reason. It’s not about what we go through but it’s about how we get through it. Peace and love 💜
👍👍✌
After everyone blew these folks up about using the " high dollar " tools on the garden hose spool video. They dropped back and used " homeowner " grade tools.These guys really try hard...I wish em luck! They have some pretty awesome skills, and like everyone one else they have bills to pay. Plugging a sponsor? Go for it! I would too.
@@ypaulbrown yes sir...this channel has been through some changes in staff. All of em have been top notch...the crew they have now...seem to be top notch also.
Thank you! We are trying! Appreciate the support!
Thanks for the feedback!
@@bobhigginbotham9035 yes sir! Great channel.
I was one of those people 100%love to see this
Nice - I am going to have my high school welding students put something like this together.
That's awesome, please share with us when it's finished!
Excellent!
The Dynamic Duo or better known as the BBQ Guys......Outstanding Paul and Bob!!!!
👍👍👍✌
Plz do more weld project videos👍👍
Working on it! Have any ideas you want to see?
Just in time for Labor Day......thanks Weld.com, Paul and Bob.....Cheers
Thank you Paul!
Have a great holiday weekend!
Cool thing you are using that Lincoln welder! Most of us use those! Excellent project.
Yes sir, I brought this machine from my shop. We use it on a regular basis. Perfect for projects like this.
That’s what I’m talking about!
Good stuff gents, looks like a fun one!!
👍👍👍✌
Nice build!
Superb
Came for the welding, stayed for the Thrasher sticker on the welding helmet
Can't wait for someone to try making one of these with like a 75lb propane tank and not think to purge it first lol
Would definitely NOT DO THAT!
I’ve always cut the top side of the door first then weld the hinges on before cutting the rest of the door which keeps everything perfectly lined up, nice build though
Yep! You can certainly do it that way! What's your favorite thing to cook?
@@Welddotcom depends, sometimes brisket, saint Louis style ribs, baby back ribs, and more recently Dino style beef ribs and skirt steak, love it all , mainly BEEF
Nice work guys!!!
@Paul Sableski thank you guys!!!
I've got a 100 gallon propane tank cleaned and waiting for me to get started. This video inspires me to finish mine.
Good job man 👍
Just saw the Same three Cooking guy grill, new fan here, you guys rock!
Thank you! 👍👍
Thermometer should be at grill height. There can be a big difference from where it was placed to the food on the grill. Add one. Smoke stack should not control the heat. Heat should be controlled by an operable vent in the fire box, stack should be wide open to prevent that over-smoked taste, yeah, it does happen. Nothing that can't be fixed. Nice project with basic tools.
Excellent feedback! Thank you. We are going to mod some things to maximize our smoking potential 👍👍
THANKS FOR THIS ONE GUYS . IVE GOT MOST PARTS THAT ARE NEEDED WILL GIVE IT A GO . CHEERS . :)
Made me hungry Bub!
Time for some BBQ!
I really like it! I may love it but I have to sample some of that BBQ.😁😁 Great job and I dig the weld.com logo! You should make a FrankenBob head smoker next time! 😁
That would be rad! I may have to put it in the weld.com member forum request!
I'm ready, let's eat !!
Awesome!!!
NICE JOB. Well done fellows.
Awesome video
I love your videos, but one suggestion on the projects: A detailed plan/diagram before you start so we can all picture what the final product is supposed to look like.
How big is the tank? I make a proof of concept smoker for my friend out of an old propane BBQ, this looks like a nice upgrade without costing too much
It was a 20 gallon tank - you can find a list of all materials here: www.weld.com/blog
Nice!!! I'm going to have my daughter build me this... Would be a good first project for her.
Thats a reeeeal nice smoker!
just need to find a compressor for myself :)
Where's Chef Cricket!!!
😂 yea! Where is he?
I’m very glad to see your beautiful show and I planning to make one for my family too and hope I can.
A question, what is the best pants for protecting the iron treaty
Amazing build! I am building my first offset on my channel right now. A little bigger then yours but still. 😁
Nice! What's the first thing you are cooking?
@@Welddotcom i am thinking ribs. But after that hoping to try out a lot of different meats. Brand new thing for me this offset-smoker thing. :)
Check out our blog for some recipes! www.weld.com/blog
@@Welddotcom will do!
What kind of blade do you use to cut the steel for this project, and what rpm does the cut off sae run at?
We used weiler abrasives cuttings wheels on a standard 7.5 amp angle grinder. I'm not sure of the rpm though.
The blade on the chop saw not the angle grinder.
@@leeirvin5983 sorry, I forgot about the chop saw. I will get that info to you soon.
I'm really confused, what happened to mancub and redbeard?
Great video.
I'd give you 5 thumbs up but youtube only allows one👍🏽
👍🏼👍🏼thank you!
That's a great size for a nice back yard smoker! What are the rough dimensions (length and width) of the tank you used?
We have all of the details on our blog! www.weld.com/blog
I know soldering wire is lead, but is welding wire safe for cooking? I can really find an answer
what material did u use for the smoker?
Who has this kinda stuff in his garage?
Me lol, I'm sitting on three compressor tanks , three 5gal propane tanks, two 30gal tanks, and two stainless beer kegs 😂 plus a large pile of scrap metal, drill pipe and sucker rod
💝💝💝💝💝👍👍✌
I’m sorry but anyone that runs that much stick out and drags with short arc is not a good welder
What in the methanfetamine is going on here
Who taught you two how to build a smoker? You have tons of mistakes. Best of luck....
