I've seen several "in the garage setup" pictures on the forum. My question is for those that have or know of them.Can someone post some details of the outdoor smoke vent? I have racoons regularly prowl around the setup on the deck and it would be nice to move it into the garden shed.Thanks.

I made a hood outta tin I had laying around.

Put an bathroom exhaust fan on it.

Then hung above the smoker.

And used a dryer vent on the outside.

If you dont want to make something you could buy a range hood and mount in the same way.

Friend took a dryer vent tubing and ran it from the top of the smoker out the top of the garage door when it is open a little ways, there is a crack crated at the top you can put through.
I use basically the same set up as OU, however I bought and old range hood and mounted on a piece of plywood that I cut to fit in my window.
I just take the whole thing out when not in use. I bought a flapper valve(I believe that is the technical name:o) that goes thru the ply.
