    Was at a house party and this was the owners grill. I laughed at how it looked but now im thinking about making my own as it was some of the best bbq i had in a while. This simple DIY grill is amazing.

    I made one of these but with much larger plant pots. I have a second grate below the main one so I can put a metal bowl just above the coals. This give me a radiant heat deflector and it can hold water to control the heat when required. I have put handles on the either side of the top pot (they are some form of synthetic from an old electric pizza oven). The two handles allows for easier lifting. There is a small hole drilled in the side of the top pot to allow a thermometer to sit in giving me continuous readings. It works great and using preheated coals with some unheated coals, the heat can remain steady at 110 C (230F) for 5 hours or more (with water keeping the temp steady). You control the heat by the corks at the top and it is very effective. I didn't do this for cost, I did it as a project and it was a lot of fun and I was smoking in a couple of hours. The ceramic hold heat nicely and it's a great conversation piece.

    Thank you for sharing. I’ve noticed a lot of comments with negativity which in my opinion is unnecessary. This is just a video showing another form of creativity that someone was willing to share. If it works for you than great however if it doesn’t that’s fine as well. Ask questions, provide suggestions and positive feedback. Constructive criticism is one thing but complaining is another. If you don’t like it don’t waste your time, and keep it moving. The world needs to be a better place not a negative space. Life is too short. Have a wonderful day to all!!!!!

    I would suggest a domed pot for the top, it seems distribute the heat/smoke much better. This design came from Alton Brown over 15 years ago, and has worked great. I use grilling gloves to lift the top off, but I'll dry the U-bold handle. Thanks for the video.
    As Mr. Brown suggested we use a hot plate with soaked chips in a pan.
    I will go out and get the BBQ gasket material you suggest. - Thanks for the Video

    Make sure you don't get a zinc plated u-bolt. Zinc is pretty bad to eat/breathe in, and the top is definitely getting hot enough to get it airborne. So stainless steel hardware all around is required. I would also wrap something around the handle, it might get hot, but also that thin metal surface isn't fun to try and pick up that heavy Terra cottar. But maybe not...
    Things I would improve on: The top hole can be plugged with some fire-brick cement and have a permanent thermometer in it. Just to give you an idea what the top of your cooker is idling at. A rough indication as to what is going on inside, and one you never have to remember to put in place.
    I would spray the inside of the pot with the high-temperature BBQ paint, just so that it won't absorb as much grease and turn the pots weird colors and smells. Plus, it would be a lot easier to clean since the surface would be smooth. I might do the outside as well, for that same reason.
    One of the holes in the side would be big enough for me to get my temp probe into, so I know what the temperature of what I am grilling is at. Sure, it is going to take 8 hours... but I don't want to spend three times as much time opening it up to check the meat when all I need to do is dump in a handful more charcoal.
