    OKJ Highland Smoke Stack

    Hello so the way I designed the Frakenstack it's able to be taken on and off. When I'm done smoking I'll put it right back into the cook chamber to store it. I have a cover so it wouldn't fit if I wasn't able to detach it. It's a 3" circle duct so I cut it and then spread the medal out. I did...

    OKJ Highland Smoke Stack

    The Frankenstack is complete! I just need to run to a big orange store and get a +3" clamp to keep it secure to the stack. I plan on smoking some ribs tomorrow so I'll let you know how it goes!

    It looks as though the smoke stack is right at grate level and will pull the smoke/air uniformally across the grate and width of the smoker. Seems like a really good design! I wonder how thick the metal is. I like the reverse flow but this definitely is conventional. Sent from my XT1585 using...

    New Smoker (OK Joe)

    Awesome man you will love it! I got mine for Father's day and I have made some great cooks with it. I also added some must have mods to it. That second picture is my exhaust extension that I was playing with because according to custom smoker calculators the OKJs smoke stack is too short. It...

    Intake issues with Oklahoma Joe's Highland

    So I finally think I figured it out! I was tired of my air flow being garbage and so I took the time and put the dimensions into a custom build smoker calculator and guess what I found out! 1) the smoke stack is about 5-6 inches too short! and 2) the intake is a little too small so I got...

    OKJ Highland Smoke Stack

    Almost forgot I did this as well to get more intake when I need it but it seems with the taller smoke stack I dont need this mod as much as before. It's pulling great air with the exhaust. I unscrewed the latch and just use it as a wedge so that I can have the intake fully open if I wanted it to...

    OKJ Highland Smoke Stack

    So adjust the height of the duct to your liking I plan on making the total height 25" to include the adjusting piece. I will also get a circle clamp that will have a knob so I can take it on and off to put my cover on the smoker. It's all aluminum so you are safe for reactions. Also taking that...

    OKJ Highland Smoke Stack

    I'm loving that smoker you link! It reminds me of the Yoeder stick burners I'll need to put that in my saved websites! So I did the calculator today before I started my beer can chicken smoke and what did I find! Well the cook chamber and firebox are pretty good ratios to one another but what I...

    OKJ Highland Smoke Stack

    I am in the same boat. I have my eyes on a Lang because of the reverse flow and it can come with a trailer hitch. I'm in the military so I move around frequently so that would be perfect! I want the 48 (I believe that's the size) one it looks amazing and all the features I want Sent from my...

    OKJ Highland Smoke Stack

    I'm interested in this as well! I wonder if you could just use a tube and just adjust it and see what works best? Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

    Intake issues with Oklahoma Joe's Highland

    Thanks guys! I really appreciate all the help. I too put my wood on top of the FB in order to dry it out and prepare it for the fire. I also make sure it's burning real good before I close the lid. I did find that if I only put in one 2"x2" stick the FB gets just enough air with the intake vent...

    Intake issues with Oklahoma Joe's Highland

    Thank you for the quick reply. I'll actually dry my wood sticks on top of the firebox. I split my hickory into 2x2" sticks to help them burn. Maybe I'll need to experiment more with a charcoal and stick combo and see how that goes. Maybe the minion with some wood chunks but once the minion is...

    Intake issues with Oklahoma Joe's Highland

    Hopefully you fellow smokers can help me out with this problem. I give my wood plenty of time to catch and really get going before I close up the firebox and then leave the intake vent wide open. Well after all this the fire smolders out and white smoke galore! The only way I can keep the fire...

    Smoker Noob - Oklahoma Joe's Experiences

    Thank you for the warm welcome! I have smoked a brisket last weekend and 5 racks of ribs yesterday for the 4th of July. They both came out surprisingly well. I swear you learn something new everytime you put some meat on that grill grate, but boy is it fun to learn. I tend to do a lot or...
