    Filtering smoke - bubbling smoke through water?

    OK, zero background in any of this, so just my opinions. You will not build up any real smoke pressure. I also think that as well as some of the bad stuff, water would "filter" out the good stuff. A hot fire is all it takes to prevent creosote. Any idea what type system the big boys use? Ideas...

    Hi Folks

    Window is generally useless. After a few minutes of smoke, you can't see through it anyway. Bluetooth... Ok, but only to about 30-40 feet. I suggest the Masterbuilt. I have one, they rock. Get an AMNPTS too, you won't regret it. A good Thermometer, and you're all set!

    Chicken Breasts on Open Grill?

    OK, basically on this, it's the amount of good burning coals that will determine temp. Real close together will be hotter than spread out. I would consider leaving a cooler section where things cooking too fast can chill for a bit. Also, just by estimating size from this pic, I'd want about 5...
