interesting info
I use the same smoker and haven't had any trouble with keeping the temps down. I can get it to hover anywhere from 130 to 170 by swapping out bricks in the water pan with colder bricks I keep nearby.

"Kick Ass" Smoked Salmon
I took my recently smoked beef sticks some of the smoked salmon and one of the wild turkey breasts to a three day wild pig hunt with a group of eight guys. Someone else brought home brewed pale ale that was fantastic and went well with the smoked meats. It also went well with anything and... -
