The Smoker King » Build a Custom Smoker

I do not recommend nor am I advising anyone to use a 250 gallon propane tank to build a custom barbecue smoker. If you cut the tank and make a spark, there is a good posibility that it could blow up and kill you. An empty water tank makes a good barbecue smoker too, and it probably will not blow up. Here are a few pictures of the smoker I recently built. This is the first real barbeque smoker that I have built next to a double barrel smoker using two 55 gallon drums I built in college. I do not have detailed smoker plans for this project, but if anyone wants more instruction than is provided on this page, feel free to email me at: aaron@thesmokerking.com Building The Smoker After filling the propane tank completely with water and soap and letting it sit for two weeks, I built up the nerve to cut the propane tank with a torch.

But hey, there’s something to be said for the power of their palates, their ability to pick up cues and vocalize what they’re tasting from the muddle of flavors in the mouth. (Even if, as I sometimes suspect, they just think they can.) I’m not talking about “super tasters” — those few who physically have more taste buds than the rest of us — but the eaters and cooks who always seem to know just what it is they’re eating. How do they do it? And more importantly, other than spending $60,000 on a culinary degree, could I train myself to do it, too? Breathe, Damn It! Our tongues are equipped to experience only salty, bitter, sour and sweet flavors, plus umami, a newish term we borrowed from the Japanese to define a savory tasting sensation.
