    What I did yesterday (mods trial and run)

    I do agree Husker. I said what I said about NASA because I had to tell MYSELF that plenty of times upon modding my smoker. The one thing that did even out my temps was sealing up the edges around the sheet metal and blocking the top half of the opening from the firebox. During that run I was...

    What I did yesterday (mods trial and run)

    Ok, so I sealed the openings up with duct tape.......SIGH....dumb move! The heat was too high for the firebox end. The glue on the tape just melted away.

    Warning - politics related rant

    Well said! Whether your a police officer, an Infantry grunt, or assembly line worker, your the bottom of the barrel in the big perspective of things. I remember I worked for a little factory in Michigan. I was just a factory rat makin $9.00 an hour stampin out clutch plates. Well we had a...

    Warning - politics related rant

It seems to be who is shaking hands with who to make more money. Wheather it be classified as a "joe...

    What are the advantages of reverse flow?

    Ok Rich, I think we are getting chatconfused. Probably on my part. What your talking about sounds simalar with my Weber silver B Gas grill. They incorporate "flavorizer bars", 3 of them over the burners. The grease and drippings sizzle on them and supposedly flavor the meat. I grill chicken at...
