Default Is it possible to make Jerky in a weber 22 1/2 charcoal grill.

Thanks- it's just my old variation of what later became the
"R2D2" Brinkman smoker. The fellow said that he just got
his new Weber,
so I figured he might not want to invest in the price or
storage space for a second cooker right away. I hope he
gives it a try and reports back. As I recall, it took all
of a half hour to build mine, after going to a lumber yard
to get the 2' coil of flashing.

I now live in a "modern" community in Las Vegas, and that
means a tiny back yard with no real place to store stuff.
If I ever were to make another one of those, I think I'd
also see about whipping up something to "swirl" the heat and
smoke. In fact, I'd like something like that for my present
Sam's Club 3-burner gas grill with a wood chip drawer.

What I'm thinking about is an old fan motor with extended
shaft that would sit in the rotisserie slot. A very tiny
blade would be inside the hood area. With the hood closed
and fan in place and set on the slowest speed, it would
circulate the smoke inside the hood- like in a convection
oven. Any thoughts on that?
