Thinking of making a smoker this summer (well, thinking even harder this year than in the past)...anyone have any ingenious smoker ideas they've come up with? Got pics?
Here's a link to one of the more trashy, but ingenious ones I've found... http://www.ibiblio.org/lineback/bbq/troy.htm

Now that's funny!!!
I don't have any pictures of mine, but it's 4'x 4'x 10'. It is double walled and insulated. Right now I have enough racks to do about 20 fish at a time. If I wanted to build the racks, I could put around 50 fish in it. I use a propane burner with a big pan for the chunks of wood. It is easy to controll the temp. With this setup I can get a good smoke on the fish for a better part of a day and then get the temp up to finish it off.

The culinary school I went to had the "Frankeinsmoker", which was one of those trick wood pellet/puck burners hooked-up to an old refridgerator. Worked like a dream.

just make sure the fridge is all metal if you go that route. Had an old philco once that looked like a giant R2D2 but I never converted it. Its currently keeping beer cold at my sisters' house...and its older than I am.
