Brinkmann smoker mods
Posted: 06 May 2013, 18:16Well it's took longer than it should of but I've finished modding my cheap little brinkmann.
Bought it ages ago for £40 found a web site that showed all the mods needed to actually make it work and hey presto here is its journey.
So here it as standard
Fitted some bolts and used some weber grates to raise it up so the ash wouldn't block the vents
Fitted some legs to raise it up for better airflow
Fitted proper adjustable vents as it didn't have any intakes
Fitted a bracket for a middle shelf
Also an adjustable vent for the lid
The lid fitted terrible with a huge gap all round so used a stove rope to seal the gap
Then fired it up for a test burn, still a few gaps and leaks but pretty good considering
Can't wait to start cooking on it
