    Horizonal Offset Smoker Mods

    Everything was great. I think I will let the temp come up a bit more the next time. I was a little scared of a runaway but know now that I can control it. I smoked the ribs for 7.5 hrs. (3-3-1.5) I did the chicken for 5+ and it finally reached 160 deg. Ribs could have been a little more tender...

    Horizonal Offset Smoker Mods

Mine has ceramic grills and has six separate grill plates. The one at Lowe's now has two pieces on the left side and...
