I've seen some pretty awesome cabinets in these forums that Smokette and Smokin' Tex owners have built themselves to elevate their smokers to a more convenient, higher level and to hold their smoking supplies. For example, see this cool homemade cabinet.
I too am getting sick of sitting on the ground to foil the bottom of my smoker and to clean it out after the smoking has been done. Problem is, I'm not much of a builder, so I'm hoping to find something pre-made at a local store.
Ideally, I'd like an inexpensive (less than $50) weatherproof cabinet to set the smoker on. I'd like a cabinet rather than a shelving unit or cart because it'll be outside and I want to enclose and protect all the smoking supplies being stored down below.
Does anyone have any outdoor cabinets they bought that work well as a smoker stand and as a place to store their smoking supplies? Rubbermaid and Suncast make patio/outdoor cabinets, but I'm not sure their plastic parts are sturdy enough to hold a smoker on top.
Has anyone found an inexpensive outdoor cabinet that works well as a stand for their smoker?
