charcoal basket in brinkmann TMLE
What is a good briquette that does not create a lot of ash? I like the royal oak lump. It has served me well but if I can get longer burn times, I'm all for it.- dmeyer24

Yeah I am aware of the Rutland and it seems like the go to sealant. Anyone know about the Chem tech OEM stuff? Just if it is safe to use on my firebox.- dmeyer24

I'm gonna seal up the firebox. I have some OEM high temp sealant which is rated at 650 degrees. Think that will work on the firebox or do I need something that's rated a little higher? I'm gonna try some other charcoal if you guys have any recommendations?- dmeyer24

I'm gonna take my firebox apart and seal every single crack with high temp sealant. I'm hoping that will help with some extended burn times.- dmeyer24

charcoal basket in brinkmann TMLE
Once to temp, I set the dampers to about half open. I held my temp pretty consistent for three hours but that was with one full back of royal oak lump. 10+ hour cooks I'm looking at multiple bags of lump. I know the trailmaster isn't a high end smoker but people have mentioned getting 6-8 hour...- dmeyer24

Neighbor got a Brinkman Trailbalzer for Xmas...not going so well..advice?
What kind of extended burn times are you guys seeing with charcoal basket? I just made a 12x11x8 inch basket for my TMLE and it only gave me four hours of burn time at 233 degrees. It fits 8 pounds of royal oak lump. I was hoping for at least 6 hours.- dmeyer24

How are the burn times with your charcoal box? I just made an 12x11x8 inch basket for my TMLE and only got four hours at 233 degrees with 8 pounds of royal oak. I was hoping to get at least 6 hours 8 is where I want to be. Mods on my TMLE are the dryer vent, sealed cooking chamber door and drip...- dmeyer24

Needless to say the temps stabilized at 233-235 degrees for three hours which is perfect for me but I want that for at least six hours. This basket will hold one bag of royal oak hardwood (not sure the weight) pretty easy and I would think one bag could get me six hours.- dmeyer24

charcoal basket in brinkmann TMLE
So I built this last night. Dimensions are 12x11x8 inches and it fits great in my firebox. I filled it up with my royal oak hardwood to burn off the Crap from welding. I put half a chimney of fully lit charcoal on top and let it go. It only burned for 3 hours at 233 degrees and was gone. I...- dmeyer24
