A barbecue-smokehouse made from a gas cylinder is budget-friendly, and given that the walls are quite thick, such a smokehouse will last a long time (it is imperative to paint the finished product with heat-resistant paint for sauna stoves or barbecues)
The design of this smokehouse is a system of cylinders connected in stages, the very first “small” cylinder is designed for loading sawdust and generating hot smoke, the second large cylinder plays the role of a smokehouse or a barbecue depending on what you are going to cook, and the third cylinder is a purely smoking chamber located vertically.
Since buying a 2.5 mm sheet will cost more than buying a facebook data 50 l tank for storing propane-butane mixture, and the labor intensity of the work in the latter case will be significantly reduced, most often a barbecue smokehouse is built from a gas cylinder with your own hands. Drawings, photos and videos will make it easier for a home craftsman to make a multifunctional brazier.

The main difficulty of combined fireplaces is the different conditions for cooking products. Therefore, a barbecue with a smokehouse made of a gas cylinder should be designed taking this nuance into account.
Smoking technology
There are several options for smoking products:
cold – the smoke is first cooled inside a long pipe, enters the chamber with fish/meat within 1–3 days, ensuring the preservation of the delicacy for 2–6 months;
hot – the smoke generator is located directly next to the chamber with products, the smoking process is sharply reduced, but delicacies are stored for a couple of months, no more;
semi-cold – the process takes 24 – 36 hours, the length of the pipe between the smoke generator and the medium-sized food chamber is 1.5 – 2 m.
