This is my answer to adding humidity while getting my internal temperature to safe levels:!
Jonesy Simple, and gets the job done no better solution than that.

Years back, my first smoker was an old cemented in outhouse that came with the house I bought. Bought a barrel stove kit and piped it in. Wasn’t the best setup, but got me started.
Gravity Storm Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder… Looks good to me. My first smoker was a cardboard box. Later upgraded to recycled corrugated tin roofing. Cheers

daryl Many years ago I built a small open top fire pit directly on my concrete patio floor
During our third fire a 1/2 inch deep and 8 inch diameter patch blew out, thank goodness we weren’t huddled around it at the time!
I knew better than to weld directly on concrete but didn’t think a small fire would be a problem -
daryl the same thing would happen if you built a firepit / place with regular bricks… They would crack or explode. With concrete its expansion that is trapped… Things that go boom when you don’t want them to go boom. (old Artillery saying, sub bang for Infantry)

A cold smoker you just want to keep the smoke in, and let the heat out! All good ideas and designs!
BigJake44 Ya, I’m a little embarrassed … No glass window door or Bluetooth

Who has built their own smokehouse? This is one my grandson and I built last summer. I have mostly done Canadian bacon, belly bacon, and country hams. It is a great cold smoker, but will get hot enough for the Canadian bacon.

daryl Here is the one my father in law and I built last year
Brian Schneider that thing looks awesome

Wow, that is amazing. I have always wanted to do one very similar to that. What lumber did you use? It looks a little like Cedar in the photo, but hard to say for certain sometimes. I like the idea of the roof extension for keeping the wood a little out of the weather. Very Nice!

daryl Our hunting group is still using the one our fathers built about 50 years ago, still going strong.

Our chicken house is the old smoke house from a little over 100 years ago. I sometimes wonder if I should clean it up & convert it back to the smoke house. It would be an awfully big smoke house though as they were doing some serious, long hanging, meat smoking back then.

calldoctoday I’m not sure what kind of wood the siding is. It was repurposed from an old chicken coop
