Anyone had any luck smoking shrimp?

Charbroil Silver Smoker - Propane Burner Addition
I have a New Braunfels that has a hole for a gas assist burner on the back of the firebox. When I was doing my mods I put a cover plate over it. I downloaded a manual for a Char-Broil Silver Smoker and it showed it but no instructions for a burner assembly, but it should be an easy mod. I...- swamprb

I agree! just use it, but from all the research I did on this smoker and brands similar to it you want lower the exhaust to grate level.

Please excuse me for not using the search function before I posted regarding Mods, but I was not familiar with this model and The Char-Broil website is not cooperating--So I got this NB Silver Smoker for $15, it has a little surface rust on the firebox lid and the table slats are kinda funky but...- swamprb

New Braunfels Silver Smoker
I may purchase a used (@4yrs) NB Silver Smoker. Are there any modifications or upgrades that can be done to it or things to look for when buying a used offset smoker? I'm not all familiar with them, but the price is right and it could be a good starter pit for me. Any help or input appreciated!- swamprb
