Well Done Dale! Mine came with Thermometers! Stay warm my friend!
Thank you sir, I have a bunch of plans for this little rascal, gonna be a fun build, I figure I am a month out on getting her lit,but it is really cold now anyhow so it is the perfect time to mess with it. I was able to get the old smoker rolling smoke yesterday before I had to go to work and smoked some chicken breast, legs, thighs wings etc, turned out awesome. We will all have to meet up sometime and eat here at the house sometime. I think you would enjoy it as well. Thanks my friend and have a blessed week,
Can’t believe old country hasn’t been sued out of business, what junk. Good vid, thx
Yeah. They don’t take what I would call
Pride in thier builds. Thank you for the kind words and I hope you have a blessed week. Sorry for the delay. Not sure how this comment got skipped ?
@@HeartlandMakesAndOutdoors no problem, thanks for the reply, you are doing it right with the replies :)!
Great video can't wait for the next one..!!!!!
Thank you sir, and thank you for the sub as well. We will be doing several mods to this smoker so it will be fun to watch the progress of it. Thanks again and I hope you have a blessed and happy new year my friend.

Thanks for sharing. The smoker aka 'meat eater' is looking good can't agree more with the River Country Thermometer's I use the same ones 3" w/ adjustable calibration.
Enjoy & Happy Smokin' 👍🏻
im not sure why, i thought i replied to you sir, so sorry for the 2 year delay, yes sir, they work great. thanks for taking the time to watch and comment and i hope you have a blessed and happy new year.

Nice video. Was in the market for a couple of new thermometers for my old country Pecos & watching this video I went & ordered 2 of the regular river country river country therms.
+miggy lopez keep me posted and let me know what you think. For the money I find them very nice.
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment and I hope you have a blessed week.
An Irwin unibit would probably work for the other hole, but they are spendy. Ummm, I guess there are some cheaper ones out there too, but Irwin is the ones I have. If I was closer I have one you could borrow. Great job!
+rlove2bike hehehe. I just got one in from Amazon yesterday. Yes sir. It would end up driving me nuts that it is crooked. Hehhee. Thank you sir for the offer as well as taking the time to watch and comment. I hope you have a blessed weekend my friend.
Wish I would have seen this before spending big $$$ for the TruTel thermometers! Good luck with the smoker
Oh man, I am sorry, well the good news is, you have one of the best they make and it should last a life time, they make really good equipment, Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment and i Hope you have a blessed weekend my friend
Dale
Tel tru is the best on the market hands down. Not a waste of money.
I am getting a vertical gas smoker and want to ditch the thermo so just ordered this one to replace with. Was gona buy a look alike brand for 1/2 the price but being able to calibrate this is huge. Cant wait to get my new smoker and thermometer.
Currently using a charbroil offset charcoal smoker I've had for a out 7 years. I want a set it and forget it smoker on the days I cant baby sit my offset.
Oh good deal, congrats on your new smoker, I think that would be ideal for those days we don't have the time to baby sit, but still want great food. I love the idea and would love to hear some feedback on your new unit after you have had it for a while. I do love this little thermometer, it is still working strong we have them on three smokers, the two I have and the one I rebuilt for my brother, I put them on his as well.
Thanks again for taking the time to watch and comment and I hope you have a blessed week my friend.

Hey them glasses make you look smart like Tankerman ! Great video, I do like your smoker, can you please smoke me some brisket and haunt it down here to me ? I would like it for tomorrow nights supper ! Thanks again !
WOODZMAN ADVENTURES hahaha!!!! How about we let you know what time the brisket will be ready and we will meet here😬 It should be fun... Dale is a great cook. And we are Very Good Eaters!! Hahaha!!😁 Have a wonderful day
Heartland Outdoor Living I thought it was Tankerman with those specs😃 get a floppy crusher hat and y'all will be twins..😮✌
hehehe, It was my safety glasses, after getting a hunk of metal in my eye one time, I always use them when drinking or messing around with steel hehehe. But I do need a floppy hat.
You going to post more on this smoker? Got one for xmas, be interested in seeing the mods and cooking setup
Eddie Patton Yes sir we will be doing several mods to this smoker. I would love to encourage you to subscribe so you don't miss out on any of the fun. And if you a specific mod you would like to see please let us know. Congrats on your new smoker!! Happy New Year!!
I went ahead and added a Old Country Angus Smoker Mods, to the playlist, I have some more done on this smoker, just need to get some more time to get some edits done, but they will be coming out soon. Doing a Heat Plate Griddle mod to it, heat management plates, and other mods as well, should be fun and make for some really cool mods. Thanks again and have a blessed week my friend and Happy new Year.
Was this lid 1/4” steel? That drill went through pretty smooth. Thanks for the video.
It’s 3/16. So close to 1/4”. It did drill pretty easy. I was impressed.
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. Greatly appreciated. Thanks again and have a blessed week.
Dale.
Great videos! I have the Wrangler, but could still use some of the mods you are doing. How long does the glow in the dark thermometer actually glow? A brisket goes for a long time... Waiting on more videos, thanks.
I am not sure how long it glows, heheh, That is an excellent question, I will see what I can find out and get back with you my friend. Yes sir, I am running so far behind on this channel since we started it, been in burn ban etc, but we should have some more videos rolling out soon. Thank you so much and I hope you have a blessed week my friend.
You too my friend! Thanks!
I know this is a old video but how has your smoker been?, considering buying one but cant find any current videos on it.
Oh man, have I got a surprise for you. I just recently uploaded a video with a couple of tips on maintenance on the smoker mixed into the video. The video is called Smoking venison the right way or something like that, just look for recent videos I have posted. But in short, this smoker is still working like a champ,. I have moved from Oklahoma to East Texas and it was one of the first items I packed up and brought here. I still use it average once a month and pending the weather, more than that. I love th smoker and for the money, it is hard to beat especially if you do a couple of the mods I have suggested. Go to a store that has more than one and look them all over prior to your purchase and pick out the best made on, you will see some of the flaws because they dont have a true quality control. If you are at an academy store, if they have one on the showroom floor, asked to see if they have any in the back. I found mine in the back and it was mint compared to a couple with miss welds and bends. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment and I hope to hear back from you.
Have a blessed week.

When are you going to publish the video with the mods to the Angus smoker?
They should start publishing soon, I am hoping for this friday or the next, I am juggling too many hours at work but it wont be long. Thank you so much for your support and I hope to have some up soon. Thanks again my friend and have a blessed week.
Just letting you know we have some more mods done, we have actually got it all done and started uploading the mods now, so thanks for not giving up on us, been a burn ban job change and all kids of stuff, but videos coming back out again. thanks again and have a blessed week.
Is the diameter on all temp gauges all the same? Thank you..
They are a standard size, that is not to say some odd things couldn't happen, but you should be fine with going with one you can buy online or locally and it should fit. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment and I hope you have a blessed and happy new year.
Dale
how do you know how big to make the hole for the gauge?
I measured mine, I think most of them are standard sizes though. So you can double check by measuring the one you have.
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment and I hope you have a blessed week.
What type of drill bit did you use to drill the hole in the smoker?
I ended up order this set from Amazon, It is a pretty affordable step bit.

Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment and I hope you have a blessed week my friend.
What brand hole saw was that
It was just a cheap one I got off amazon. Sorry for the delay we have been on vacation in a no cell area. Back now. Have a blessed week my friend.
A low quality smoker with a high price tag.
It's definitely not a smoker for every one. I was looking at Lone Star, and Yoder when I finally went with this one,. It will fit my needs. The True Oklahoma Joes, prior to whomever bought them out, was a company in Oklahoma, they made really good smokers, I have done a video on that one as well. It's a re-work on it, because it was so old. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment and know it is appreciated. If you have time come back and let us know which one you got, I am always interested in what others are using to make some goof fun home smoked meals, and with you comment, especially on a budget. Keep us posted and have a blessed week.
Dale
I have had so many issues getting with this smoker getting up to heat. It holds fine but can be a challenge to get hot enough? Have you had issues with airflow or otherwise?
I have been using stick burners since I was a kid. So I have not had any issues with this one. I have added additional steel to the fire box as well as the main chamber. It I fill the bottom of the main chamber with water it does even better and is with in about 10 degrees from side to side. But that is added work. On long cooks I do that. Let me know if I can help in any way. I hope you have a blessed weekend.
Dale.
Just bought same temperature gauge what size hole bit did you use?
Oh man. I honestly don’t recall. I will see if I can find out though. I just matched it up with the screw in threads.
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. Sorry for the delay in reply been out of pocket for a few days now. Thanks again and have a blessed week.
Dale.
I'd like to see you actually smoke something on it if possible. I'm interested in buying one but am still skeptical.
I am running behind, and we have been in a burn ban, Sorry for the delay, I have also been out of town for a week on a Dual Sport Motorcycle trip and was in an area with out service, I can tell you from I know about it so far, I think it is gonna be a champ at smoking, Hopeful sometime this month we weill get it brunt in and start some smoking. with the winder burn bans, I have not been able to finish the mods or get the burn in done, they lifted the burn ban, so hopefully I can get at the very least the burn in done sometime in the next week and get it out of my garage into it new happy place hehehe.
Thanks again and have a blessed week.
Very nice smoker. I like that the temp gauge glows in the dark. I think will order one and replace the one on mine.
+The Open Air Garage thank you. Hanks for taking the time to watch and comment. I am pretty pleased with these. I am putting a set on the old smoker we are rebuilding as well. Thank you so much and I hope you have a blessed week my friend.
great video, really wanting to get this smoker. what other mods are you going to do? have you cooked on it yet?
I have not cooked on it yet, we have been in a burn ban most of the winter. I have also been busy with life. But yes we plan to add a shelf and do some other internal mods to make it an even better smoker. I hope to start working on it again this next month, so if you have time be sure to check back with us as spring starts, we will be doing more mods to it, burning it in and getting it ready to start smoking etc. Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment and I hope you have a blessed week my friend.
Great video! I’m adding those to my offset.
Oh thank you very much, I appreciate the kind words. Thank you and I hope you have a blessed week.
