    I have a large event coming up next month (250 head +/-). Briskets and pulled pork are the main event, sides include potato salad, cole slaw, baked beans, all the traditional staples. A friend of mine working in NYC stumbled upon this restaurant and sent me an article about their smoked...

    Were my calculations off?

    Interesting, so the upper vent will essentially "push" the heat through the chamber, and this will help attain LOWER temperatures?
