    An Idiot’s Intro

    Hey Paul,I'll start with a few answers If you open both vents you will get more heat. Hot air rises . It needs somewhere to exit. That is why you weren't getting heat. This also traps old smoke inside the chamber which could be why the foul taste. I personally wouldn't start with brisket as it...

    Pellet Smokers - are these really concerns?

    I like the amount of smoke that I get when smoking at 215 on my GMG

    Looks like this one had little to no stall. Sitting at 171 already. Only been at 215 220 the whole time. Going to be an exercise in keeping it warm

    Pellet Smokers - are these really concerns?

    I had issues keeping consistent with my charcoal offset. I got a pellet smoker and now it's always consistent. Love it

    Smoker idea

    Lucky you, Well you could always make it into a nice looking unit- give it a beauty paint job.. I would keep 1 at the cottage( if you have 1) Or just give it to someone who would put it to good use, unless you plan on cooking large amounts of meat where you will need both..
