    Keeping an offset smoker fire going all night...

    Thanks a lot Backwoods for all the advice. I went out today and got me a small load of oak about 7 months old and picked out pieces without bark. I hope you didn't mean I can't do any brisket on my Brinkmann TLE because I'm was planning on doing one all day Sunday.

    I agree about the bark and I've seen some get the fire started with bark and all and during the cooking use the bark less dry wood. Thanks for the color advice.

    All wood only...

    Do you ever get wood from a guy that sells firewood and what color are you looking for? I'm thinking the wood that is more on the brown/tan side, dry, rater than the grey color of older wood would be the choice. Right or wrong...

    Thanks for that advice. Your right I've seen so many on YouTube telling folks to close the stack down to control the temp (wrong)... I appreciate the advice from you folks that have been there and had success and failures. I'll be back with more questions... Bob

    Keeping an offset smoker fire going all night...

    Need some more advice. I started a test fire in my Brinkmann TLE offset smoker about 7pm one night and stoked it up again about 11pm to see if it would go the night. I closed the air vents down as much as possible and place a few wood logs in the firebox. Upon waking early the next morning...

    All wood only...

    Ok I just wanted to cook with all wood instead of buying lump and charcoal but didn't want to kill the meat with too much wood smoke. I'm getting the sense that many of you cook with all wood and I just need some practice...

    I was wondering because I was reading in another forum that after meat reaches 150 degs smoking is a waste if time because the meat will not take in ant more smoke... You say yours is coming out good with all wood start to finish?

    Well what I was wondering is if I start a fire with wood and let it burn down to coals then add the meat and keep adding wood to maintain the temp, will the food get to much smoke from adding new wood?

    I have a smoking question...

    I have a new (used 4 times Brinkmann TLE offset and I generally food ribs, whole hams ( precooked), chicken, and nothing fancy. With this smoker can I use just wood or will this create a constant smoke and be too much for the meat. Last time I did ribs using a few chunks of wood and mainly...

    Brinkmann TLE Smoker

    Thanks Dave, I installed a baffle directing the heat downward using a cookie sheet and I laid another cookie sheet next to it. I'm thinking the second cookie might need to be cut up or holes drilled into the sheet. I just came back from Home Depot and bought a flex pipe to bring the vent down...

    Brinkmann TLE Smoker

    Hi folks, I've been on you tube and taken a lot of advice from posters about the mods for my Brinkmann TLE which I purchased a few weeks ago. I drilled two holes in the front on each end and installed two more thermometers in the front lower at grilling level. I purchased two cookie sheets...
