Click on the Photo Gallery and the second is a drawing. This design uses a firebox on the side with a cooking surface atop. That would allow refiring while cooking continues if one were doing a day-long cook session.

I don't much care for the steel barrel design, but the side fire is interesting. The barrel would inevitably rust out and chunks would continually be falling into the cooking.
