The success of my #2 and this forum prompted me to do some building.

Nice!  Are the two parts attached?  I see you have the Briner Jr handy, and ready for action! 8)

They are not attached.  Both cabinets have wheels for mobility.  I want to build a third cabinet to house a small refrigerator.  I am not sure how I will put them together on that small gazebo.  I have to leave space for my wife's swing.

I would like to see other members' pictures of their smoker setups or ideas for backyard kitchens.

I have nothing worth taking a picture of other the the meat coming out of my #3. My smoker just sits on the deck. Nice job on the cabinets.

Jackie,

Another member, Grandpa Doodle built a cart.  See it here.  2/3 the way down he has a link containing a list of materials.

I've been thinking about an outdoor kitchen for a while now but living up here in the arctic ( minnesota ) it would be to cold and to hard on any equpiment in the winter although my #2 does perform well in temps as low as -30 it's just no fun running in and out in those conditions, so I've been contemplating maybe an 8 by 10 utility shed, finishing it in side throwing a few goodies in like a range hood fridge etc. just need to get the better half to see the wisdom behind this!!

Jim, if you build the shed, run a metal tube out through the roof or near the top of an exterior wall to act as a chimney to vent the smoke outside.  It would then simply rest over the hole on top of the smoker. Also be sure to place a cover on the vent to keep any rain water from getting in, but allows smoke to get out.

Just use your ice fishing shanty. All you guys in the Great White North have one of those, don't you?  The second picture's just for fun, to remind us what you go through up there!  (my wife's from MN)  ;D ;D
