    Brinkmann Trailmaster Limted Edition - mods

    Adjusting the tuning plates is a single plate at a time in small movements, many times to get close temps on both sides and the middle.

    Nice score on that. You should take it apart and seal it back together, but you can take the chance that you got a rare one that don't leak smoke

    Brinkmann Trailmaster Limited Edition

    Here is a leak I did not see untill now. Its on the back of the firebox just above where the ash drawer is. Sealed up and going to have to sand and paint. Anyone else have this problem ? Looks like I lost heat there.

    If you have the plates where you want them and temps are close side to side, its up to you where to put the meat. Depending on what I am smoking and how much, I use right in the middle. When I do brisket and ribs, brisket in the middle and ribs to the side.

    Brinkmann Trailmaster Limited Edition

    I took it off my MasterForge,  it was the right dimensions for it. It had four ears to fasten it on the vertical, so I bent three up to fasten it to the ash drawer. Then used aluminum tape to block some of the air flow. I have done three smokes with it this way, all have come out real tasty...

    Brinkmann Trailmaster Limited edition - First dry run tuning process

    I have read on here that you should never close the top 100%, it will create a build up of creosote. Make the food taste nasty. Sounds to me like you have a lot of air moving thru the firebox. I sealed mine up so well the I have a hard time getting the temps up over 250.

    drPHX81, you have done some nice mods on yours. The stainless expanded metal cooking grate looks good, was it pricey ? I will try the felt gasket on mine, whenever the high temp seal does not work anymore. Looking forward to seeing and hearing how it all works for you.
