    What I did yesterday (mods trial and run)

    No, theres not Steve. I have been burning without the hood for about an hour and a half.....just as I thought, I didnt get the temp like i did with the hood, Temps rose slower, however, SEEM to be falling slower and TONS of heat loss through the box. I think instaed of drilling holes in the...

    Stirring the coals

    When burning charcoal or lump, do you shake or stir the coals during a burn? If so, how often?

    What I did yesterday (mods trial and run)

    OK, So I finished the throat today and couldent wait to fire it up. As with my previous runs, I used Cowboy lump, 1 Weber chimney full, and monitered peak temps. With everything screwed and sealed I acheved 260 peak. That is 20 degrees hotter than previous runs without hood. As far as burn...

    An idea

    How about a special place for "Shop works" A place to discuss "tricks of the trade". Smoke cooking related for those of us that like to tinker. Wheather your a Welder, Carpenter, Tinknocker, work Masonary, or just have a plan....how to build it.???

    What I did yesterday (mods trial and run)

    OK, The monsoon expected today was late. This gave me time to make a prototype duct/hood to utilize all heat from charcoal basket. I will start bending and cutting next week. Again, I will do this using NO breaks, rollers, spot welders, pittsburghs, etc. so maybey people can duplicate if they...

    What I did yesterday (mods trial and run)

    I appreciate the foresight Dan. As it is now I bought your old smoker on sale at Home Cheapo. It was Damaged and got it for $80 assembled. I dont know if yours had gaps in the firebox door but mine has some conciderable ones. I feel whatever I do....a little more air certainly wont matter. Im...

    What I did yesterday (mods trial and run)

    I made a charcoal basket today. Just like BBQ Bubbas with the expanded metal. I think im going to just have it sit on flat stock. Ive never seen the Chargriller but if it has a round firebox you might want to use flat stock instaed of drilling holes. Plus if you dont like it, you can remove it...
