A year or so ago, my friend Denton's Dad was talking to me about rebuilding his trailer smoker. His name is Robert by the way. Well, Robert and I talked about rebuilding the rust damage to his smoker a year or so ago and never really got around to it. But, being out of a job, and him being in a position to do it, we finally got around to rebuilding said smoker.
This might sound a bit biased, but Robert has smoked some of the finest ribs I have ever tasted. So I was honored to get the right to rebuild his smoker. When I arrived to pickup the smoker for the work, I got a glimse of what 30 years of smoking ribs and brisket can do to steel, especially with questionable fabrication.
