    How to decrease temp

    ok I wasn’t manipulating the chimney damper at all. It was kept wide open. I was closing the firebox damper to prevent oxygen inflow when my temps where higher then I wanted. It seems I should just add less wood next time.

    How to decrease temp

    I monitor the grate temp in two areas, the meat temp, and then gave the gauge temp that’s on the offset smoker. So I’m monitoring 4 areas. Checking and recording each temp every 30 mins. Just because I’m very new to this way of cooking. Try to learn from each cook.

    I was splitting them in a lengthwise, so smaller diameter. Thanks I try that.

    How to decrease temp

    Thanks for the input, I appreciate the help. I was doing ribs and was aiming for 225 +\- 15 degrees. I was splitting those logs in 1/2 or 1/4s.

    How to decrease temp

    Hi, I’m new to stick burning and I would like advice on how to drop the smoker temp after I was to heavy handed with inserting more wood. I use a 20” Horizon offset smoker. It has a damper on the firebox and on the chimney. What are a few techniques to try?

    Firebox question

    I have a 20” Horizon offset smoker. My question is about the firebox. Should I be using this grate to build my fire on top of? Or should I remove the grate and build the fire on the bottom of the firebox? What are the pros and cons?

    Offset smoker cover or tent

    I have the Horizon 20” classic offset smoker. Horizon’s covers are on backorder due to COVID. Anyone have any suggestions on a cover or even a recommendation on a canopy type cover? Thank you, any advice is appreciated.

    Forever, I went through BassPro. It took 2 months. I wouldn’t purchase from them again.

    I’m pumped to have the smoker. It’s exciting and fun working the firebox.

    Leaky offset

    Just purchased my first offset smoker. A Horizon 20” classic offset. It’s leaking from the top and side of the firebox door and the top of the cooking door. Is this normal? should I not worry about it? Any advice how to fix the problem?

    Picking up a horizon smoker (Bass Pro)

    ribs or chicken. Both are cheap meats in case I screw it up.
