Here is where I picked up ours. http://www.growdepotcolorado.com/rockwool-1.aspx They are local to me. I purchased the 2 CF bag of mini cubes. The mini cubes are 3/8 of an inch square on average. I will have approximately a 1/2 inch gap between walls that we will stuff these into, then...
"Simple Green" spray is a safe product that works well. Spray it down, and let it sit a few minutes then hose off with a high pressure nozzle. You may need to do it a couple times, but it works well. You will want to re-season it immediatly afterwords.

Yes the black is the firebox and main cook chamber. I will get some heat transfer from the firebox itself, but there is nothing more than radiant heat there. The small angular lines represent butterfly valves. There will be two five inch stacks eventhough there is only one depicted. My goal...
