Barrel Barbecue

Regional and Traditional Cooking Techniques

A barrel barbecue is a type of barbecue stove built from a fifty five gallon drum, with vents cut into the top and bottom to control airflow and a lid to retain heat. Its design includes horseshoe-shaped legs for stability, and because the length of the barrel itself acts as a chimney and provides a natural draft, no separate chimney is required.
