Got my first Smoker and looking to make mods

If I were you, I would consider converting it to a reverse flow.

That is move the chimney over to the same end as the fire box then make a solid plate that goes almost all the way across to the opposite end where the heat and smoke is finally allowed to enter the cooking/smoking chamber where the food is. It then has to go all the back across to the moved chimney to exit. The reverse flow plate will heat up so the heat will still be captured and used to cook the food. I don't think you would really need not lower the chimney opening if you do that.

I am thinking of redoing mine that way although it's doing a pretty good job as it is now.

I was wondering...I have this same model...I can't find replacement grates for this brand...I can't even find a website for this brand...any ideas?  my grates are rusted and I was hoping for a quick fix...replace.

Would you mind posting your own introduction here in Roll Call? That way we can help you with a more current post. This thread is almost 3 years old.

Hope you could get some quicker answers.
