The Shed's Willys Wagon BBQ

This one-of-a-kind smoker and BBQ was built from a 1954 Willys Wagon. It was created as a portable bbq kitchen for a restaurant in Mississippi called the The Shed (actually, two restaurants now) founded by the Orrison family. They chose to use a Willys because, "it's like the oft repeated mantra of cooking great barbecue: You have to drive it 'low and slow.'"

Medium.com has a long story about The Shed and their experience at a BBQ competition.

Here are a few photos from medium.com and from USA Today:

    I've been to two of them, I think there are three or four. They are cool places with good food. Build from junk and scraps, stuff that would never pass inspection as a commercial establishment in Ohio!
