Gary I believe it is better. I did notice it was holding better temps with the lump and extra air hole. One crucial detail I missed when looking at SmokinSteves build was that he had air intakes on both sides of his firebox. I could either add another vent on the front door or the back of my...
Anybody have any idea what this pepper might be? it had a bhut jolokia tag at the nursey but I grew real bhuts last year and this ain't it. They are
