Finally got a urge to BBQ and decided to put a couple days into finishing the beast.
the handle below operate the air intake
the levers above operate the exhaust temperature to regulate the temperature across the inside of the unit.
the spinner in front actually levers the inside char coal grate up and down to a little over 2 inches of play.
How well does it work? well the first time out I used the same amount of briquettes as our smaller older BBQ, mind you this is 4x the size and we cooked some hot dogs, turkey burgers, mushrooms and corn on the cob at almost 200, not bad for a light load of briquettes. when I closed up for 15 after all the food was cooked and it slowly rose to 350. (Thanks to: Sam Glanzer for that temperature gauge!)
total expense: around $42. for a one of a kind BBQ
