In case you weren't sure exactly how nuts I am

Last night Chicago got six inches of snow.

Here's my project for today -- two briskets on the Weber Smokey Mountain. Temps are holding well between 225 and 250F.

Unfortunately they're for parties next week. So no BBQ tonight.

Wow,

I was reading this thread backwards since I was logged in and saw the R2D2 smoker and thought that Zippy had made it.

Duh.

Of course, that would have been both nuts and cool at the same time.

How many of you, reading this right now, are hatching a plan to build an R2D2 smoker?

Are you familiar with this brilliant piece of consumer insanity?
