Picked up an older new in box Smokey joe today with a plan to make a smoker mod out of it

Hey that's cool I'm curious to see it done.
I got a SJS last winter for $10 then Target last year had them on clearance for $7.99

Well the mod got put on hold, I opened the Smokey joe to find it was a miller high life logo, so I couldn't make a smoker out of it, listed it on here and one of the members is trading a colored Smokey joe for it, so when I get it I will resume

that's a nifty looking mod, An...did you document the build or perhaps you have some pictures of the inside you can share?

and does it smoke the same way as a Smokey Mountain? if not, what did you have to change in your 'method'?

The barrel you see in my picture fits the Smokey joe perfect has a rolled lip on top that fits the lid and a stepped base that fits just inside the bowl, it's going to make my center section about a foot taller than a 14.5 WSM, I'm interested to see how it smokes when I get it finished

There's more than enough height to put three cooking grates but I'm curious if it will hold enough temp with the Smokey joe air flow

Super nice job. I love the serious latch. Did you gasket the fire door?

Not yet, but it's going to be made, if it is making problems to keep the temperature for a long time.

Easy holding 200 C, with standard coal. And rotisserie.
