Question on the Walnut....did it impart a weird flavor? I've stayed away from walnut, though it has a great heat content. I thought some walnut was poisonous...at least to horses it is!
Steven Raichlen has a recipe where he butterflies the pork loin open, layers it up with seasoning, then ties it back together for the cook. Looks like it would definitely add some flavor.

Got back from Spring Break with the fam, and had a chance to update the Angry Pig. I thought "first things first" and removed most of the baffle plate. I left a bit to hold the bacon rail, but most of it is gone. Huge difference in airflow. No more choking and white smoke, just clean burning...
Thanks for the feedback on the airflow calc's. I'll open up the Firebox/CC opening...the current bottom is flat, and needs to be cut to the lower CC curve for easier cleanout anyway! I'll also zip out the exhaust baffle. I may give it a test burn and see how the fire and smoke behave. I also...
Quick question....what does the upper air vent do for me in the firebox? I was considering a guru setup, would I still need the upper air vent at that point?
I agree with the removal of the baffle. Is there any reason to keep any part of it....3" or so to keep heat in? If not, I'll likely...
Sorry, I forgot! The propane tank is 24" in diameter and about 67" long. The straight sided cylinder is 57" long, which leaves about 5" of crown on each end. Of course, part of the CC is taken up by the firebox, which sticks in about 6" from the end, and up 6" from the floor. The reverse...
Thanks for the replies all, I'm wondering if the exhaust baffle is causing the extra smoke, and the lower airflow. Here's all the dimensions of the airflow path. What's your thoughts after looking at the numbers?
Thx
Hey all,
I've been smoking on an electric, and pellet grill for a few months and decided to jump into the stickburner world. I picked up a used custom build trailer unit from a friend. 120 gal CC, 24" cube firebox. Seems to be a nice unit.
While firing it up for the first time, it seemed...
Hey all. I'm a fairly new smoker, but completely addicted already. I started with a cheap electric Brinkmann, moved up to a Camp Chef Woodwind which I have pretty well tuned in so far. My latest buy is a home-made reverse flow stick burner on a trailer. Looking forward to learning and...
