    Tip: For seasoning your firebox, Instead of using the expensive cooking spray, you might want to just put oil in a trigger sprayer. I like your idea using the sprayer for the water/vinegar.
    I built an 80 gallon offset smoker from a big commercial air compressor tank about 10 years ago, and just stumbled across your video. Excellent!!! All of your tips are spot on!!

I think it should work better than pit barrel because they have a chimney and a bottom vent. I was looking at the kingsford xl rancher offset 36inch. It looks like 3/16 inch. I would love to see you cook a brisket on your barrel smoker so you could show us barrel smokers how to do it successfully.👍
