Since we are so close to the holiday season, let\u2019s start preparations for the food debauchery by building a brick smokehouse which, accompanied by a mug of red wine and a glass of plum brandy, keep away winter cold weather. For those raised in the countryside or who at least spent vacations there, the smokehouse, regardless how complex or rudimentary the structure was, is a must have of the winter culinary ritual. And to get to the point, building your own brick smokehouse is an easy task with fruitful results over the next months.<\/p>\n
The project we looked at is a smokehouse entirely built using cinder blocks and was found on a forum dedicated to smoked meat enthusiasts. There is something like that since the number of those addicted to these fall and winter season dishes is so high. The construction bears the signature of Nick, a handyman in Texas.<\/p>\n
He used cinder blocks to raise those four walls of the smokehouse straight on the ground, with no foundation underneath. As we can see in the images, he also chose not to use any mortar to glue to blocks together. This must basically be a seasonal smokehouse which, after the job is completed, is dismantled and sheltered in a garage of shed. A choice which must have something to do with a small space around the house.<\/p>\n
