    TEL TRU'S

    I currently have 4 Tel Tru thermometers that are coming off of my 500 Gallon, the stems were too short for my use but since I used them twice I couldn't return them. Looking to get $30.00 plus shipping each and would prefer to sell in pairs. 3 inch Dials 4 inch stems Thank you.

    Solid cook Peachey, all looks like a hit!!! Did you always have grates in the fire box? Do they help?

    I agree. I’ve had a fire in it EVERY day just trying to get familiar with it. What I have seen is that after about 40 minutes it levels out pretty good and takes minimal wood to maintain temp since the firebox is insulated

    I coated it with beef tallow and it’s pretty cool to see the metal evolve.

    Opening questions on mods for Chargriller

    Something that I had great success with was making a charcoal/wood basket. It helped with making things even because I had an even burn with less spikes, but I also agree with Kevin, deflector plate will seriously improve the Chargriller.

    Just got the smoker back from the welder and we fixed it. Thanks Peachey I made the exhaust chamber significantly bigger and added a deflector in the CC. Temps are about 20 degrees different from left to right but I see that the doors don’t create a perfect seal. Going to get some gasket...

    Working on it, once I get the draw figured out I will be good.

    No damper on the stack. And now I understand what you mean, is it possible my exhaust collector isn’t big enough, it doesn’t quite go across the tank

    That would affect the heat across the grates? How would that even it out

    Finally Got my 500 Gallon

    SO...... Finally got my smoker back and its all fixed, I had him add a couple of latches for the doors and extended the cooking shelf as well. Also added a couple of fryers as well that he welded to the frame and a 2 inch drain the 1 inch was in a bad location. Today I have spent most of today...

    Lol Thank You, I am anxious to fire it up. But ultimately "Be anxious for nothing..."

    Finally Got my 500 Gallon

    I hope so, also having him make a couple of mods already. Want to go with a 2" drain on opposite end of CC because the one in the middle is a pain. Im also having him mount door latches because they bounce around when Im driving, and maybe extend out the cooking shelf because its too narrow...

    I love how you designed your smoker, did you coat the outside with anything to protect it?
