    Smoker up and running.

    First run of 18lbs of venison jerky. The smoker seems to be at a constant 88-92 degrees. I plan on 24 hours in the smoker I will check at 16, 20 and 24. The rain may push that longer.

    Kiln dried cedar.  I would have loved alder, or birch. This is what my friend had laying around.  I am going to go pick up a propane burner today if i can find one.

    Trying to dial it in.  As many of you mentioned the traeger just did not have the umph to put the heat into the box.  So.  I am trying a small camp stove with smoke.  It looks like i will have to go with a gas system to run this.  I am finally getting the heat i wanted.  3 of these...

    fits and starts to begin with.  Need to run the thing for a day or so to coat it with smoke before using it.  I have a couple of thermometers to put in it, followed by a secondary smoke generator.  The idea is to use the traeger for heat, and the a-maz-n smoker tray for smoke.
