    bottom collar, two dollar

    I've noticed that a lot of smoke and heat escape from the ECB through the gap between the walls and the charcoal pan.  I'm guessing that in the original design, that gap was necessary to allow oxygen to reach the coals.  However, for those of us who have ventilated the charcoal pan and inserted...

    ECB Mods? Anyone trying anything new?

    Thanks!  The wife and daughter don't much care for bark, so it's dropped a few slots on my pork priorities list.  I've got my science team hard at work on a way to make an all-bark cut of pork, and I hear they're making good progress...
