re: High end offset smoker build

So, after about 4 months, this is what I've got.
Obviously still need to put a couple finishing touches on it (thermometer, damper, lower expanded metal tray, etc) but it's essentially done.
Now, the conundrum of the paint job? Paint the stack? Paint the firebox over? Not sure exactly where to go.

I would spray it with PAM or some other oil and season it every cook. It is easy and will be black soon enough.
I'm extremely jealous as I want a larger one but have no time to use it much less build one.
Is it a single rack or do you have an upper one as well?

I wish I had frickin' skills.

Looks good man!
As for a finish, boiled linseed oil is the way to go. Use flack seed or grape seed to season the inside. But on the outside, bake on boiled linseed oil. Heat it up with a rose bud or a weed burner and wipe it on when it's at about smoke temps. It will actuwly harden on there and give a good weather proof finish. It's easy to touch up down the road vs trying to keep high heat paint looking good
