Seasoning Oklahoma Joe's Highland Reverse Flow Smoker
Gaps in firebox = heat escaping (an already thin smoker) Gaps in FB & CC = difficult to maintain constant temp But ultimately Ive cooked on COS for years never modded, without good thermos for years and produced good results. This is my first time using a high end COS with mods and an amazing...- Xendau

Seasoning Oklahoma Joe's Highland Reverse Flow Smoker
I totally agree. After all the COS smokers I have owned over the years, it is inevitable. Get out the wire drill attachment and go to town. I am trying to get the same brand of paint used by Lone Star Grillz and a few other OS makers. (See attached Spec Sheet) and fix my current run in with...- Xendau

Probe Port Barbecue Smoker Thermometer Stainless Steel @ Amazon: http://a.co/hZ5fA9c I did buy others that looked just like it for half the price (and you get 3) but they werent made as well and I never found the exact match (size needed for 6 probes wires) to this one. So I took the $18 hit...- Xendau

Fireboard ATC function
Ill try and post it later today, I found this one on their website. Do you want specific pictures? Im not sure that connector (link) will work, but I guess it is worth a try. From my understanding, the Drive cable has electronics built into the head that help to regulate fan speed. I could be...- Xendau

Seasoning Oklahoma Joe's Highland Reverse Flow Smoker
Ill be running my 6 probe wires (Fireboard) through this probe port. When you tighten the end cap a plastic unit inside tightens making it more smoke tight. Ive heard the plastic insert deforms after a number of cooks at higher temps, but is easily replaced with high temp tape.- Xendau

Woot! Woot! New Minion Bars
@Rusty Long - I have not. Shoot, I havent even used these yet. BUT, I have the convenience of having a nice ATC that would/should keep it from getting too hot. Over the next few weeks I will be playing with different set ups and I will report back. @SonnyE - LOL (just for you....)- Xendau

Fireboard ATC function
Ive only used mine twice so far. Those are the sessions you see, and I love mine already. My set up is an OK Joe Factory RF Long Horn. The 20 cfm is more than enough. I ran from 10:24a to 3:17p and the fan never went above 17% once the fire was good. (Fan power output on right, temperature on...- Xendau

Fireboard ATC function
Hi bvander! If you want to control a fan of any given size, yes the drive cable is required (to my knowledge). I too own a Fireboard and used it for the first time two weeks ago. I purchased the Fireboard with 6 meat thermos, 2 ambient thermos, the drive cable and their fan. Here is my...- Xendau

Woot! Woot! New Minion Bars
So my OKJ RF (factory) came with a basket for wood/charcoal (dimensions 13 x 13.5 x 9). After seeing Lava Lock minion bars I was out to buy a pair. But upon reading specs I realized they were much to small for my basket. So I spoke to the guys in the sheet metal shop where I work. I gave them...- Xendau

Seasoning Oklahoma Joe's Highland Reverse Flow Smoker
River - I concur, it is about the food coming off. But having owned any number of COS over the past decade and a half, I am trying to be more mindful and take better care of this one. All my past ones have been under the $200 range, this one set me back $500 without the mods or the ATC. I dont...- Xendau

Seasoning Oklahoma Joe's Highland Reverse Flow Smoker
I guess I meant left to right... I consider the front of my smoker nearest to the FB and the back furthest from FB. I could have been more articulate. Atomic - The new FB will peel I am sure, but it allows me the chance to take apart the first one and refinish it better than from the factory...- Xendau

Wasi, how are your temps from front to back? I thought mine would be less than 10 degrees, but are more like 20 degrees.- Xendau

Seasoning Oklahoma Joe's Highland Reverse Flow Smoker
Greeting everyone... a little late to this thread. I too recently bought a factory OKJ RF Longhorn. I put it together on Friday, seasoned for 6 hours at 240 degrees on Saturday (see attachment 1). I used PAM grilling spray and Wesson veggie oil on the inside, and veggie oil on the outside. I...- Xendau

Greetings from Cali...
Just wanted to say hello to everyone... look forward to being a part of the forum. Been grilling for over 25 years, smoking just over 15. Learned most from my pops, and a bunch from reading various books. And sad to say, never thought about joining a forum for grilling/smoking until just this...
