    Hello

    Just another question, I've ordered 2 temp gauges, would it be better to place these 1 at either end of the CC, as to make sure I'm getting a consistent temperature across the chamber?  Jeez, I'm nervous about getting this up and running...lol!

    Hello

    Cheers guys, the baffle plate has a return on it at the far end opposite the FB end. It's fully welded in to act like a drip tray and stop fat going back into the FB.

    Hi Guys Just thought I'd share my build with you. Completely new to smoking, but really got the buzz for it with the amount of new "smoking bbq" joints opening over here in the UK.  The other day I noticed somebody on FB had built their own smoker, having no idea about actual smoking, I didn't...
