I've gotten quite comfortable with my Brinkman. But one thing bugs me. I'll have a nice light smoke going. If I take the lid off to mop, or open the side door for some reason, many times my wood chunks will burst into flames from the O2 hit.
Any way to avoid that? I ask because when I close up, the flames snuff, but I get that nasty burnt wood smell for a few minutes. I haven't really tasted it in my food yet, but it seems it would be best if I could avoid it altogether.
Any ideas? I use dry chunks, BTW......
