Brother Allan I get so from watching your videos I am retired and like to build bar be Que pits,and smokers. I have learned a lot from just watching you. At the present I am working on 15 gallon barrel pit. I like how you use the angle iron for the lids, and the side vent.
I really like your channel. Its like a library of information, there's a whole lot of good ideas and examples of how to do just about anything that pertains to building some bbq pits. I guess I'm going to build a 55 gal drum pit. I really don't like the idea of how thin they are but its like the cheapest most available thing to use.
I had a hell of a time getting those L bars to fit doing 45 degree angles like that. So I just cut a square out of both sides of 2 bars so they just fit together like puzzle pieces and welded that. Great video!
Picked up two 55 gallon drums this morning. Orange juice barrels without the liners!!! Have to wait until the fire danger drops around my area and then I'll be welding up my big ass BBQ while watching this video.
thanks for the ideas. I have done a vertical grill where I just use the big round weber grate and it fits perfect. Looking to build a horizontal with an extra barrel I have
Great job! Cleanest one I have seen yet. I have a rusted one with the bottom warped and blown out in the back yard, should I just attach a half barrel to the bottom of it or maybe a sheet of stainless metal..
I really love your work. Super heavy duty. I've done that before but your work is pretty much nicer than mine. This video will help me to do my job easier. 👍
I know this video is 4 years old, but I’d really like to know how you weld your grates with no clamps and no warp it. I did that once and warped the hell out of it. Since then, I’ve been clamping down and letting it cook clamps so it doesn’t warp.
Very nice! My only concern is if the table on the front of the grill will make it difficult to reach the meat on the back of the grill. Is the front table/shelf removable?
awesome job buddy like the idea for actually putting angles on the lip of the grate frame instead of just tacking it to the drum looks good love to have one anywhere around alabama?
MAN! You are an awsome welder, the BBQ's I"ve been watching you put together there, and the precision that I see you cutting and welding with is incredible. My only wish is that I'm not closer to you. I would love to have you build a bbq / smoker for our VFW but I'm a little to far away for something like that.
I have a question I see you tack the front and back of the frame but what about the ends where the lip of the barrel is also ideas on the stand measurements
Al where do you live man where you get so much rain man it seems as though you are always flooded out there ,just wandering by the way your a freakin genius.
i love your channel i get so many ideas from you as i make woodstoves from old expired propane tanks and now 55 gallon barrel stove and ovens but my question is where do i find one of those magnetic 3 inch wide tape measure i cant find any in canada?
What length and measurement of angle irons were you using when you connecting the two pieces together I am making a grill and just like this same size of drum.
thanks for the amazing video man, as a south african braaing is hella important so wanna build this exact braai stand. Just a question, what paint do you use on the actual drum and frame. And what wood...please respond would be a great help thanks
Question for you when you weld the 55 gallon drums do you use only the mig weld or are you flux core welding them. I know nothing about welding and want to know how to take a 55 gallon drum and weld a cooking to it and what kinda welding do I need as well as gage of steel if you are willing to answer this I would greatly appreciate it.
Allen I got a ? 4 you. I'm wanting to make a drum grill butt want two make the 🔥 box on the bottom and center of drum. Then on the inside put a diffuser plate. This this a good idea or not. I like wood and charcoal but like to use it in a fast Manor for quick Cooks thank you for your time and all of your great videos.

This is the best video I have seen. You actually show the steps in making the smoker.
So glad I ran across your sire on you tube! Another well built grill!

Great videos thank u. Have u ever built a whole hog pit?
you got some good ideas. when it comes to hinges I like to use bullet hinges. it looks better I think anyways.
Man that came out beautiful. Simple but everything came out precise
Picked up two 55 gallon drums this morning. Orange juice barrels without the liners!!! Have to wait until the fire danger drops around my area and then I'll be welding up my big ass BBQ while watching this video.
Great video! What hinges did you use, and what size angle iron did you use to frame the drum? TIA

Great video and awesome build! What paint product do you use?
Is that a new drum?
Simpler than the rest and just as good looking than the rest. That's big enough just for me👍
I know this video is 4 years old, but I’d really like to know how you weld your grates with no clamps and no warp it. I did that once and warped the hell out of it. Since then, I’ve been clamping down and letting it cook clamps so it doesn’t warp.

awesome job buddy like the idea for actually putting angles on the lip of the grate frame instead of just tacking it to the drum looks good love to have one anywhere around alabama?
That's so much nicer than the last half cut drum I did. I've got to step up my game.
lol..I'm sure you can do it just as good as I did
Allen's welding/woodworking can i see the inside for the cooking surface?
How can I buy one of your grills. Really like the hard work you put into your grills.
Very nice grill. What did you do with the bung hole?
MAN! You are an awsome welder, the BBQ's I"ve been watching you put together there, and the precision that I see you cutting and welding with is incredible. My only wish is that I'm not closer to you. I would love to have you build a bbq / smoker for our VFW but I'm a little to far away for something like that.
Great job ..... How much for something like this & where is your location ? 👍
This is the pit we started on way back in the day..
Where can I order one- great idea
Nicely done sir! I love your work
I have a question I see you tack the front and back of the frame but what about the ends where the lip of the barrel is also ideas on the stand measurements

Beatiful job on the barrel grill
You put a lot of pride on your work God bless you. Body i like your video

Do you paint the inside???
How do you stop water from getting into those kind
Great job man keep up the good work

Do you make rotisserie cookers too ?
I may be overstepping but can you please do a no weld version?
Hey sir i love your videos, just a dummy asking how do you empty the cole when you finish bbqin?
How long did this take you? What would you charge someone for something like this?
Hey allen, how do you clean out a 55gallon barrel that had motor oil in it? I've soaked it in water, dumped it, did that 4 times diff days..
What was in the barrel that made it explode?....I have an oil 55 gallon oil barrel Im looking at doing something like this with.
It was “ID red” an alcohol based degreaser, I just forgot to clean it out
What would you sell one of these for? Nice build!
I sold it for $140
i love your channel i get so many ideas from you as i make woodstoves from old expired propane tanks and now 55 gallon barrel stove and ovens but my question is where do i find one of those magnetic 3 inch wide tape measure i cant find any in canada?
Good work,how much??$
That's what u call taking pride in what u do
Shopping in texarkana harbor freight right?
R u using stainless for the grill
What degree is cut on square tubing legs
Hey man how do you do it so it won't have a gap between the top and the bottom?? Every single one that I build always has a gap!
Javier Delafuente he uses angle on both the top and the bottom
Is there a type of barrel that needs to be used? Such as food grade or unlined? Thanks
Food grade would be best but really just barrels that didnt have oil in them, you can burn everything out while you're building it
Food grade has a lining. Is that okay to cook with?
you do some great work
Can I place an order?
Awesome barrel grill 😘👍
Allen, do you make these for sale at all? Always wanted one, but don't have the tools to do one myself.
You did your thang,looks good
What type of welder is that? Im new to welding and want to buy one for my house
Lincoln 180
Awesome job on that BBQ man 👍✌
