    KCBS Hoosier BBQ Classic

    Morning Dudes and Dudettes, My first Comp is coming up next weekend! It’s a KCBS Comp. Just wondering if anybody has done one and how will I need to set up? Do I need to be set up as if I’m a vendor? If anybody has any words of wisdom my mind is open to new information.

    The door was getting hung up from the grate slot(where the grate slides in and out) and also somewhat on the door and chamber itself. It looks like a simple grinding job.

    Update: local fabricator was able to fix the problem. Now I’m itching to get a good season on this beauty and get some smoke rolling through on some meat!!!

    I added pictures to one of the other threads. Of the door, the hinges and also the inside of door when closed.

    I’ll have to take it to the fabricator in town. The manufacturer said they have no control of how the door warps after plasma cutting it. I find that to be bullsh** but what can I do. I’m the type that puts a lot of pride into my work so it kind of hurts my heart that the guy who did this let it...

    Door won’t close

    Appreciate it. I’m going to be furious if the manufacturer does not cover this. If they don’t would you know how much that would run me getting it fixed by a fabricator? I know prices vary by location and all that. Just a ball park range?

    I’ll get the pic once home. I haven’t done nothing with smoker yet. Haven’t even seasoned it yet. Literally got it and noticed this gap. The temp gauges haven’t made it on yet lol.

    It might be. I’ve contacted the company I purchased it from and they’re in the process of getting the manufacturer involved in the issue. How would I know if it’s springing out?

    This was my first thought but it’s an impingement from the door to the chamber. Wondering how I could find where exactly it’s hitting?

    Door won’t close

    I was going to use something like that(lava rock) but my concern is the steel door is catching up somewhere and making it not close. I guess I’m wondering how can I find that impingement?

    Just need suggestions on how to fix what’s in the picture.

    Door won’t close

    So I have a problem. My door for my chamber won’t close all the way. I know I’ll get a little smoke leak but I think this isn’t right. Wondering how to fix it.
