New to here. New to smoking.
I'm not a builder either, but the main idea of the elbow is to get the exhaust location down closer to the grate. Also, the size of the opening at the grate should be the same as the exhaust stack. You still need to get the smoke to move rapidly through the meat and out of the CC. Don't...- joe black

Help FIREBOX size
It's just a matter of math and personal preference. One combination that I came up with was 16x12x10. All you need to do is work out what works best for you.- joe black

Fire in the hole!!!
Not only am I glad you saved the briskets, I am really glad you didn't get burned. Having your welding gloves handy was a very good thing. I think I learned a very valuable lesson from this. I wish it could be posted some way that everyone could read it. Glad you're OK, Joe.- joe black

Smoke is no joke
Welcome from SC. It's good to have you on this great site. I start my fires with charcoal to get a good bed of coals and to get the CC up to temp. I always pre-heat my splits before putting them on the fire. The pre-heated wood will ignite quicker, keeping the fire from dropping too fast and... -

Welcome from SC. It's really good to have you here on this great site. I'm sorry, I can't help. Up here in the foothills of SC, we don't have too much Citrus wood. I've never tried any of the combinations that you mentioned. Good luck and good smoking, Joe. :grilling_smilie: -

Long time listner, first time caller...6'-2" & 275... Ding.
What is your cook temp? And, have you wrapped the butt? It sounds like a long time to me. If you are at the once-magic 225*, and tour IT is at least 150*, I would wrap it in foil and try to get the heat up to 250-275*. But, then I'm not an electric guy and you could probably get some better... -
Royal Oak on Sale
