    Having temperature control issues on my Dyna-glo verticals smoker.

    Thank you so much for the ideas. When I seasoned my smoker I did not use a water pan I simply used kings ford. I never meant to really "play" with it but once I got going I decided to try to control temps and ran into the problems. I have sealed my doors using nomex tape today that should help...

    New Dyna-Glo vertical offset smoker

    I just got mine.... And I am having a heck of a time getting this thing to maintain a temperature. It goes down I add charcoal (I am seasoning so no wood yet) and it spikes up really high like 300 high. I have the chimney get open all the way and the fire box vent closes. Seems like no matter...

    Having temperature control issues on my Dyna-glo verticals smoker.

    I'm having trouble keeping my temperature low. I'm getting a consistent 250 but it won't go lower. Let's make sure I have this right, if I close the vent on the fire box my temp should go down. Vice Versa if I open that vent it should become warmer. If I open my chimney vent it should cool and...

    Duma-Glo 1176 Review.

    Hey guys just got my Duma-glo vertical offset smoker today. Building was pretty easy although some of it could be done with improv easier than the instructions. Overall seems well built. Metal is thick enough to do the job. Seems like plenty of space to cook although there is no real reason for...

    Dyna-Glo vertical smoker mods

    I just ordered my Duma-glo and this is my first smoker. I've read tons on them and found people are having issues with losing smoke out of the door and fire box door. Some are using high temp silicon and son are using nomex tape. So I am prepared which is better to use? I think I'm more...
