I have the Propane Char-Griller with the side fire box. Im having an issue with temp. I was wondering how much charcoal y'all use at a time and at what intervals do you add more. I have a charcoal chimney that I use. I fill it 2/3 full at a time. And do y'all put your wood in your coals or on the grate? I get flames every time I put the wood on the coals. Flame=no smoke. When I smoke, I usually end up standing in front of the smoker all day worrying about temp and no smoke.
Kinda leaning towards getting a propane smoker.
