My Budweiser BBQ Grill

admin

My 2nd Project. Decided to make a BBQ grill since summers almost here. So after a few ideas from this website and thesmokering.com I decided to make a unique bbq grill. I found both tanks at the recycling center and picked up for bout 15$ together. I spent about another 100$ on square tubing and expanded metal. I am very happy the way it came out. I really wanted to write "Bud" in white lettering on the bowtie but Im gonna hold off on the mean time. I also got another idea about a warming plate from a bbq smoker I had seen here in town. The plate is located on top of the firebox and big enough for a tortilla or even a pot of beans! Let me know what you think. I got more pics coming Attached Images

Reply:One thing I forgot to mention. Plenty of mesquite where I live so the cooking grill has to come off when you put all the mesquite in it. So I made the holder till the mesquite goes down. Attached Images

Reply:Me gusta lo.   Nice clean work and a good size for the family too. I have tried mesquite and the steaks are a little bitter for me if that is all I use... U have fruit trees near u maybe? might try a little apple or peach in there too it'll be sweeter tasting.The flag could read "Corona" tambien si quieres.Lincoln Power MIG 215Lincoln WeldPak 3200HDLincon ProCut 25Lincoln WeldanPower 225 AC/DCIf all else fails... buy more tools

Reply:awesome looking smoker! I have been looking for some tanks to make one of my own, but here in socal the tanks have been few and far between.  I have a cord of oak sitting in the back yard just waiting for a smoker to make some sweet love in!What was the size tanks you ended up using?
