RedRum Posted August 7, 2024 Report Share Posted August 7, 2024 I’m thinking about cutting open the top of 55 barrel and welding in parts of bayou classic and running the fuel line and burner in from a hole in side of barrel. Anyone have such experience? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutch oven iron pot I believe is what it is. I could use 1/2 the barrel but the stand up height of the full barrel is pretty attractive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably open up the top so that I can set my burner top into the hole and run a propane line into it. The edges will double as a surface area for molds as well.
