I think you were talking about the Nomex for the doors. You leak may not be the doors on the fire box.I hear a lot of people saying that it is the halves of the fire box where there ar no bolts. Someone added 1 or 2 bolts by drilling it out. Someone else just used high temp RTV. Just a thought...
Was wondering what you are sealing all the doors with. And I was talking about sealing every nook and cranny. And adding a flue cap so it is say to smoke even in the rain.
I have been ding the research. And since it is just for my family, I am strongly considering the PBC. Delivered to my door...
Doesn't that include door gasket material? You also need to buy a whole tube of high temp RTV. And I mean the engine header stuff tested to 1200 degrees or there is the high temp orange tested to 600 degrees. Seal every joint and connections as you put it together.
I have started using the paraffin wax cubes. They work in the fire box or in the chimney. Also drizzle a bit of veggie oil on your paper. It will burn longer.
Don't Blame You!I am getting one in the spring for he same reasons. People want my Brisket and Pulled Pork. So who the heck am I to argue. Plus we have chuch BBQ's 4 times a year. Butt the have a big pit. Will do two hogs at a time. But I do all the brisket.

If you look to seal it in those places that are not the door areas, try using high temp orange RTV that is use for headers on an engine. Tested to 1200 degrees I believe.
I will say that you deffinately need to oil the bottom for 2 reasons. 1. You will get moisture in the bottom of that smoker when it rains unless yu use a vent cap. 2. If you are going to use the water pan to put moisture, beer, or your choice of juice in the chamber, you will want protection of...
Gavin, wipe the thing down with oil. The low temp warming prepares the metal to accept the oil you have put on. The high temp helped to seal it. Use a hot burning wood suchb as hickory or oak to get the temp us. I would also look at spraying it down with some high temp(1200) header paint before...
Gavin16, the changed to get performance out of this vertical are fairly cheap compared to a horizontal. You will need to buy seals for all the doors. If needed, you can buy extra latched for the CC door later on. As for the firebox, I am going to make a charcoal boxholder out of expanded metal...
