    If you cut the maple into pieces about the size of a soda can and not thin slices they should last longer. I have never heard of using sawdust in a smoker. I started with a smoker like the one you have and used charcoal and small wood chucks (store bought kind). It worked will but I had to go...

    Smoky hello

    Welcome to the group. Things will get better if you had good cooks with some meats you can get the others. Sounds weird but it doesn't hurt to write things down you did so you can repeat them or not repeat them if didn't work out the way you wanted. Good luck with it and keep smoking.

    New guy, new smoker

    Hi Joe and welcome to the group. Not sure on the issue of your door, not used that smoker before. Sure someone here can help you with that. You can also try the search bar with the issue maybe someone has had that happen. The 3-2-1 method for ribs does work well. Not sure if you wrapped yours in...

    Welcome to the group. Sounds like a good start, now you can play with different rubs and kinds of wood to get flavor ideas. It doesn't hurt to write do things you try. That way you can tweek them or not use if it didn't come out just right. Good luck and keep smoking.

    There is no such thing as a bad question here. I myself would think the oil is not a good thing. If it was a cooking oil might be different, but bar oil could leave a bad taste and bad smoke. The log pieces should work, but would avoid the sawdust. Glad you joined the group and good luck. Keep...

    I had issue with my smoke hollow 4-1 with flame at fire box to cook chamber, added plate and helped out with that issue. I wonder if your plate by the stack will effect air flow through cook chamber. May need to change it after adding plate at fire box. Good luck and let us know how it turns out.
