so i have a cheap offset smoker (with mods, pic provided) i have been using, but unless its hot out there is a lot of heat loss. had a bunch of bricks laying around so i thought i would make my own.

this is just a mock up of it. will have to mortar it obviously, and then maybe line the fire box with 1/4 steel. you will notice, i have offset some bricks for rack placement. and i will need to figure a way to have access to lower racks when full. total capacity i would say around 10 chickens or more will fit on this mock up. i do have more bricks, but it was getting quite tall at this point.
