    Smokin Tex

    I have had my ST 1400 for two years and had the same issue you have with smoke coming out of the door. According to ST this is normal and should stop as you smoke more and develop a seal.

    Disapointed in this injector

    I use the Bayou Classic. It is stainless steel and comes with two different injection needles. It will also hold 2 ounces of seasoning in the main body. Has worked great for me.
