Can put on about 10 full rack's of RIBS 3 or 4 briskets 4 chickens or 2 turkeys at the same time. The box on the right side is for heating bean's or what ever and the box on the lower left is the fire box there is a grill that is about 2x3 ft and the same size flat top grill. We have cooked for about 150 to 200 people at some of our bigger parties.
 
Can you find 200 people in Montana? If you built that, I'm impressed. How many does it sleep and when is the next party? I'm hungry.
 
Damn that is awesome!! It looks like you used a propane tank? I built one out of an old diesel tank and an old woodstove. It allows me to cook on the woodstove and smoke/grill at the same time. I put 11 whole chickens, two hog rear quarters, two racks of ribs and a couple dozen bratwurst on it at the same time, but mine is no where near as pretty as yours. If you built that, you did do a helluva good job!
 
First of all NO I DID NOT BUILD TIHS ONE MY FIL TAKES FULL CREDIT . He just likes to tinker around and build things. He built everything from the ground up. It is a propane tank and I think he added another part of one to make it bigger. AND YES WE CAN FIND 200 life forms in MT not sure if they ALL would qualify as human but there would be 200. YES it was my intent to have a BBQ for TDR/and friends but after thinking about it I wasnt sure it would be a good thing. We would have to separate the Retardiclans from the Dumocraps/ Im sure that the Texans would have to have a place of their own and then some wouldn't park there High dollar trailer next to a POS what ever. I have purchased a beef but dont know if that would be good enough for some as it is Angus and Organic fed. Also there would be a bunch of NASTY TRUCK DRIVER TYPE'S we all know how THEY are you bad mouth ONE and the others are somehow included in the message Plus the Peterbuilt/kenworth/ folks would not park next to a Freightliner because the parts that fall off the Freight shakers could scratch the PACCAR folks( I dont blame them). I JUST DONT KNOW IF IT WOULD BE A GOOD THING THINGS SAID ARE TAKEN TO SERIOUSLY AND WE HAVE NO TIME FOR FIGHTING OVER SOME BS SAID JUST IN FUN , There will also be MANY FORD"S and CHEVY's so more fighting over that. Some of the refinery guy's get a few gallons of home brew in them and the argument is on DONT THINK SO

I dunno. The Ford, Dodge and Chevy folks all intermix and get along fine at the MDTDC dyno events. Maybe Texas'll freeze over and everyone will get along great! :)
 
GLAD YOU SAID THAT! I dont want to start the WAR. But it seems that the folks we party with are the same I really dont care what they buy or for that matter they dont care either. HELL THEY COULD EVEN BE ONE OF THEM THERE LIBOTARIANS !!!!!!!!!!!! Just seems like you have to explain your statement around here and if it's not the same as somebodies WELL THEN YOUR JUST WRONG. Another KID and I were in a place that we had no contorl over and were doing things that we had no idea what we were doing and a Full Bird Col. chewed MY A** for doing something. He said to grow up and do your job. We made a pact that WE would NEVER grow up if it made US A**hole's like him. 5 day's later the other KID was KIA and I have carried on our promise. I will never grow up because it makes people to FRIGGEN SERIOUS, AND I LOVE TO PARTY

That just could happen next summer. We are roundin up a bunch of folks for the house warming party. Lots of room for RV's on 35 acres/ Could even have mule rides on Jacob (some pretty stout cowboy's have tried) but none have stayed on very long. Got the beef growing out back no stay of execution for him goes in next week/ somethin to think about this winter as it is going to snow this week I can feel it in my bones. Need a git- to- gether with some of my fellow Montana TDR mem. for a few beers and talk about CJ's Veg mobile fuel I dont know how Greg and Gary talk like that LOL

Very cool...

That is one nice setup Big’. I’d like to have something on the same line for when our brood with spouse and grand kids (17) come visiting the wife and me after our move. Note... that's 6 kids 4 spouses and 7 grand children.

It feeds a bunch or as my FIL said a HERD. We have a group of folks in our family and a Sunday afternoon get-to-gether looks like a mad dash to the chow hall. Ill have to sit down and think about how many but I know that we have 13 nieces and nephew's and I know that they can down some groceries they all have had the feet under our dinner table at one time or another.
 
My mother's family could use something like that. She had 8 or so siblings and numerous cousins. There's something like 34 cousins in my generation (early 20s to early 60s). And their kids. And the 2nd and 3rd cousins with the -removed generations. There can be 150-200 people to feed, depending on how far they want to travel: they're *everywhere*, including descendants of Civil War draft dodgers still in C-eh-N-eh-D-eh.
 
FIL built us one when we were in So Calif it was smaller but did the same for us. The smoked chicken and turkey is really good. People in So Calif had no idea what it was. (BIG SURPRISE)
