    DRIP PANS, yes or no?

    yes that helped out alot. My biggest concern was the fat dripping into the fire and making the meat taste like burnt grease. Thanks for the compliment on my smoker. I built it from a vision i had, and i'm still learning what all i can do with it. Thank You.

    DRIP PANS, yes or no?

    Is it ok to not use drip pans. i know it takes some experimenting to see, I didn't use them last night cause it's cold here in CO. and i was strugling to get the heat. I took them out and instantly got 50* more heat. Am i going to notice anything different?

    I have used green pear wood on one of my first smokes, and it did have a bitter tastes. I'm not sure if it was because the wood was green or i just used too much on a 13 hr smoke.
