I am from upstate NY. I am a welder by trade. I have always wanted to BBQ. Recently my son saw an offset smoker and thought it would be great for he and myself to build one together as a father and son project. I am thrilled. We have done researched on the internet and came across this forum. We would like to build a reverse flow smoker, but not sure if we should buy plans already designed or just go for it and hope for the best?
