They formerly held: Vegetable Oil, Vegetable Oil, and "Donut Jam (Raspberry)".
Behold my sweet flavor.

flaggerx's sawzall, and a decision on if I want to coat the barrels with high temp. paint or not. I'm getting mixed opinions.
I also talked with a guy up in Independence who just built one of these about 6 months ago, and he -strenuously- recommended a book I couldn't find at Borders, but picked up at Amazon, so I may hold off on too much construction until it gets here...
Amusing moment: As I was unloading the drums from my car (and Alex's, since I was only able to get two into mine and he was good enough to come help with the third), the neighbors immediately asked "Oh, are you gonna build a BBQ smoker?!?!"
Yeah, I think we're gonna get -real- popular after I start firing this guy up.
