Build your own brick BBQ!There are few skills and tools, and this is something anyone can do!This is my fourth brick barbecue.It's fun to build and cook them.This time I want a big fire pit with a smoker on the right.I think this is the last lol, the barbecue side is about 45 inch long and about 30 inch deep.Smokers 30' deep, 28 wide and 30 high.See why we want to pour some concrete for a new terrace/walk, why not build a new BBQ with brick.We started working, including some steel bars for the barbecue.Even though I measured the position of the steel bar over and over again, I'm still a little nervous now, too late!The position of the steel bar is displayed again.I want to make sure that I have been re-executed in some areas.Using the 4 "partition block, I set up the first class as much as possible to try to keep straight, vertical, and horizontal.The 2nd course is almost over and my son wants to contribute to the project and we made a form for lentils.I built lentils with two 1 1/2 "horns, supporting fire-proof bricks.We then made plywood, hung the length of the 1/2 "steel bar and tied it to the vertical steel bar.We then pour it with hydraulic cement until the cavity of the first and second courses is filled and the shape is filled to make sure all the bubbles come out.Lentel looks good and we end up with a rock solid structure that includes the first and second blocks.Note: all steel bars are filled with hydraulic cement every second.The fourth class is mostly set up and still tries to stay horizontal and vertical.The next 2 classes have been set up to complete this section for smokers.Similarly, every 2 blocks are laid, the hydraulic cement pouring cavity is used in all steel bar positions.I will wait to install the second lentel until I put all the refractory bricks in it.I went to my local construction supplier and purchased standard size firebrick and used it for the floor of firepit.Then I bought 1 1/4 thick refractory brick for the wall of the fire pit.This is a view that shows the opening to the smoker.You can also see that I also installed a solid 1/2 rod through the block.I then welded a solid steel plate to the bar as a damper for the opening of the smoker.Note: I used 3 lbs of clay in a 80 lb pre-mix mortar pack to set up fire-proof bricks.I dried the mix clay and premix in a mixing bucket and then dumped them all in a clean plastic trash can with a nice fitted lid.Same as other lentel, use the to pieces at the 1/4 "corner, with firebrick on the bottom and barbed wire and steel bars hanging.The day felt really good and I managed to put a lot of red bricks I bought from my local construction supplier.The days are quite hot, the old man shows with more bricks at this stage of the game that his age is not bad for an old fart, in order to support the fire pit opening, I tried more angles, another rather hot day, and I set up some more bricks.I made a concrete cover with a thick cover and an opening to the chimney.I reinforced it with barbed wire and 1/2 steel bars, and then with the help of my son and one of his friends, we installed the lid and put it in place, there is a slight drain at the back.Note: I made a wooden box 2 inch deep and tied the barbed wire and steel bars together to make sure it was supported in the center of the table.I then mixed three bags of 50-pound hydraulic cement and poured it out.After ironing the form, I covered it with plastic and had it cured for 3 days before taking anything out.I got a return on the local metal supply.They have everything I want, and more, after making the frame, I cut the grill and the smoker's door into size.The top of the grill and chimney cover was cut to the right size by kind people from my local metal supply company.I also found someone to bend the chimney cover from my metal holder.My friend next door has some beautiful 8-inch tiles that are exactly the right color, why not use them to finish the top of the smoker?Made a very nice surface to put the plate :) I bought my stainless steel spring handle and my Weldon hinges on-line.Everything else comes from the hardware store.They are cheap and I can do a bit of recycling, two scissor hands and a clean 55 gal drum.Some flat thin metal is welded to the top and bottom of the jack for more stability.The drum is cut into large and small, with a saw for the fire basket.I raise and lower my fire basket as needed.Really useful.A square tube of 3/4 and some expanded metal.1/8 "steel rod for small handle.I made the frame at the top, including the hanger for my shelf.I want two levels and I want them to slide back and the fourth one to slide back as well.I can choose a different fire or at which level.Knowing that I want to do anything the most (even hot dogs without having to make a fire), I found a guy online who described in detail how to build a pipe burner.Back to the metal supply, I bought about 1/4 black pipe lollipops. Here is a link to show how to make a pipe burner.Visited a local home appliance store and I picked up two shelves for free!Go a little further, walk to another old joint and buy two more racks for $5, lolI weld them together, each with a big shelf.I also have to weld some small flat metal to meet my need for width.The springs for the back handle of the smoker and grill door come from the seat of the riding mower (riding mower is now a racing mower that is of no use lol) I use these to keep the tension on the handle, to make them work properly.Some flat steel is bent into a latch on the inside of the door frame to keep the door closed.A large, easy-to-read thermometer was completed.A photo and some rough drawings to help illustrate how I set up the intake damper.The exhaust air door is just a flat piece of steel that slides through the chimney to adjust the heat flow.So far, my fire has been very small in other names.Smokers only had some slight barbecues and short tests.Make sure it dries slowly.On the way out, a cheap gas grill lol needs a gas cylinder. let's take a look at it first. what a great outdoor barbecue summer!Smokers keep a good temperature after preheating, which doesn't take a long time!I smoked a couple of pig shoulders and ribs including beef ribs and beef bris and more birds in the yard and I remember lolThe fire pit was great too!Appetizers such as shrimp wrapped in bacon, roasted jalapeno, roasted fruits, vegetables, corn, taters.Everything is great!I will put two beautiful turkeys for smokers on Thanksgiving Day.The big one is 17 pounds, and the big one is 12 pounds.Looks like I'm getting up early!Well, well, I can almost taste it now!Happy Thanksgiving everyone!PS more photos here!
