I absolutely love cooking on the grill during the summer. Nothing beats hanging out in the backyard, throwing some hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill, and enjoying a delicious outdoor summer meal with friends and family.


If I could, I would probably grill every day. Well, actually, I would’ve until I saw this. When I spotted this amazing barbecue DIY project on how to build a smokehouse from Smoking Meat Forum user Nick from Texas, I was absolutely floored. Not only has this man transformed his yard, but he has made summer get-togethers even more delicious! Now he can smoke his very own meat to achieve that rich, smokey flavor in every bite. Nick will definitely be throwing the neighborhood’s most talked about barbecues this summer.


This awesome DIY smokehouse is an incredible addition to any meat-lover’s backyard. I’m jealous that I never had one of these in mine. Please SHARE if you also think that backyard DIY projects like this are a great idea.
