A hole for the chimney. It is made at the top of the facebook data on the side of the neck.
Smoke generator input. If hot smoking is selected, the pipe is cut into the oval opening from below the brazier and goes horizontally. If cold, the pipe is of a smaller diameter and length. The opening for the cut-in is round.
Lid. The length is equal to the dimensions of the cylinder. The width is 1/3 of the container diameter. It is attached with hinges and welded.
Slots for skewers. They are made on both sides of the grill, opposite each other.
To get a smoke generator, you need:
Cut the container to a height of 50 cm.
Weld the bottom.
Make an opening at the top to connect to the barbecue.
Cut out the lid.
Place a sawdust grate inside.
Creating such an installation will require replacing the standard side openings of the grill with a hatch at the bottom of the body, and the remaining piece of the cylinder will become a damper.
Thematic material:
DIY Concrete Barbecue
Do-it-yourself stone barbecue
To avoid deformation and strengthen the structure from the inside, metal corners are welded along the edges.
