    Can I do this?

    Yes that's what I did... On this grill there is already quite a large hole on the side that had adjustable "dampers" on it I did however remove the damper so it is now just a hole!

    Can I do this?

    No it's actually sort of a putty. It's made by Hilti. We use it in the building to seal up air gaps between tenant spaces and mechanical rooms I forget the temp rating but its supposed to withstand flames for like 4 hours or some crazy stuff like that... It gets applied just like a tube of...

    Can I do this?

    thanks Dave! my main concern is that the firebox actually covers the vents that are already on the side of the grill.  I suppose I'll just give it a shot I can always return it!  I work in a commercial high rise building and brought home some firestop material to use to fill the gaps.  It's not...

    Can I do this?

    Has anyone used the small char griller/ side box on another brand of grill other than a char grill? I have a master forge dually and wanted to try adding this on as a side fire box but was unsure if I would be wasting my time.

    how much smoke?

    These guys are right on the money. What I have noticed so far is that ( for me at least) it seems to be more about keeping the smoke thin. By adding too many chunks or chips it seems to be much easier to "oversmoke" the meat. However if I am able to keep the quantity of smoke down the duration...

    Finished product!!! It is delicious! Don't get much of a smoke ring with the skin on but it does keep it more moist! Glad I tried it this way. Thanks all

    Sausage smoke ring?

    thanks guys great to know I was under the impression that it wouldn't have the smoky flavor.  I'm getting ready to go warm up the smoker now before the wind picks up and we get this storm out here in the Poconos!  My Mother in Law just brought over some fresh sausage from a local butcher last...

    Sausage smoke ring?

    When smoking Italian sausage for example is it necessary to remove it from the casing before putting them in at 225?  In the past I have done this because that's how I was taught to do it, but if its an unnecessary step it would be much easier to skip it!

    lump charcoal

    Wow some interesting stuff there!!! So now I understand that everyone has a different opinion; however, what I got out of it is that there's not too much of a difference in the makeup of the two it's really all in how it's made.
