    Looking for tips/suggestions using a vertical offset

    being polish, I like to make kielbasa. Unfortunately, I've never tried to smoke it because I dont own a smoker that can cook low enough. I recently purchased a vertical offset and it has hooks so I can hang meat. I want to try and smoke kielbasa, but I'm not sure how to run my smoker any lower...

    Howdy from South Central Indiana. After a few years hiatus I am reentering the field of smoking meats. The old smoker, a Brinkman vertical, had fallen apart after 7 years of loyal service. It was basically sheet metal and was not an offset. It did fine in the 225-275 temp range where I...

    Need Guidance on Vertical Smoker (Budget Friendly)

    The Dyna Glo Signature Series Heavy Duty is the way to go. Keep the vents wide open and make sure you have good dry wood. I use a basket in the firebox and toss in lump charcoal with the wood to keep temps stable. Very small splits of wood or even 2-3 large chunks is all you need to cruise at...

    Too much smoke? Why?

    I see two problems. Low and slow is outdated, no sense in cooking at 200-225. Just about everything cooks better at 275-300F. Low and slow ensures you have to deal with the stall, which is just evaporative cooling. You can wrap and have the bark get soft or you can wait it out. The stall ends...

    Temp & Wood Combustion Issue

    Hey Guys, I've browsed through the forum a lot and I can't seem to get a definitive answer to the issue I'm having. I own a cheap smoker, which is the Dyna Glo Offset Vertical Smoker. I made all the adjustments by sealing off the cracks with high temp silicone, gasket, and buying a new...

    Basic Pulled Pork Smoke

    I've done perhaps a hundred "butts" over the years and have used many techniques. I've smoked 50 at a time over a brick pit with 14in. sheet steel covers  and used green pecan. I've used many different HOG (horizontal offset grills) and used dry Oak. I've used UDS (Ugly Drum Smokers) and...

    My new toy with mods

    Ok. So to start things off I have been looking for a charcoal smoker for a while and I couldn't pass up the deal on this. It is a Dyna-Glo wide body offset smoker. The research I found on this is they loose heat and are hard to move so I fixed those problems. This is what I did. This is what...

    Help with Chimney

    While I applaud your willingness to improve your cooker, like forluvofsmoke said, moving your exhaust to the lower side is a really bad idea. When you say "Dyna Glo vertical smoker", I assume that you mean the DGX780BDC-D 36" vertical and not the 47" vertical offset. The 36" has the firebox...

    Dyna-Glo Wide Body Vertical Offset Smoker

    I ordered a new Dyna-Glo wide body vertical offset smoker last week on-line.  After reading some threads on modifications to similar grills, I also order a tube of Sil-Bond high temp food grade silicone and Nomex tape.  I thought I should follow the advice of those who have done this before and...
