If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.

I lit about 10 pounds of kingsford in it and it smells bad like chemicals , I'm going to strip the inside of the pit again and try to get whatever is on the inside off of it ...

You may need to season it like you do a smoker.  Put some wet hickory wood on the fire and close the lid to smoke the insides.

It needed new grates !!! Going to burn it every night starting tomorrow until Saturday ...

bigstyx

Was that your chemical smell, the old grates?

jdelo77

The old grates were just rusty and in rough shape but , no it was likely the paint that I got on the inside of the lid , there were a few spots that I got paint on the inside , I've stripped most of the inside down to bare metal ...

Added a firebox , it really helps control temps a lot better ..

jdel, how did your truck's tailgate hold up to the heat?? Looks like a sweet set-up.

I shortened the smoke stack from 12 inches to a different 8 inch stack , it never got above 350 and just for safe measure I threw an old wool blanket over the tailgate but it never got hot ...

It cooked 36 burgers ( 3/4 pound each ) with ease ! It's nice to not have to cook things in batches !!
