Folks,
Need a little help with temp control on a Wrangler smoker. I can run this smoker at 300 degrees all day. If i try and run at 225 I have to open the fire box damper almost all the way to keep it in that range. of course running it wide open like that it burns a lot of fuel. If I shut it down it will run way up in the 350 range. I am burning oak, hickory or apple wood splits. The splits are about the size of a soda can. I have modified the door damper by removing the nut and bolt and replacing them so the damper is very tight to the door. I have not put felt on the lids as of yet. Any suggestion are appreciated.
