I was cruising down the interstate back to Dallas. As I was moving and grooving down the road, I had this thought - If I had a grill/smoker/bbq pit pulling behind the truck, could I use it going down the road? (Example) In theory, I could start smoking at the house, and when I arrive, my food is ready.
Right now, I have two sets of issues.
- How to keep the meat and fire/heat source consistently cooking?
If I had to stop and start, what would keep the meat stationary? I was thinking of creating a hanging basket that could swing with the movement of the road. This would keep the meat from bunching up against the side of the grill.
I would probably use a charcoal smoker since an active propane tank would be recipe for disaster. Therefore, I could make a grate to hold the charcoal in place at the bottom of the smoker.
- Legal Issues
Are the cops going to pull me over because I’m breaking some law? If so, what law?
I probably cannot fill up with gas as a heat source of that nature would not be welcome, correct? I could always just unhook it near the gas station, fill up, and reattach.
