    Z grills and 217 grills the same?!

    Ok, I've been smoking meat for a few years now with a traditional offset. I'm looking at getting a pellet grill because I'm wanting to do pulled pork for my wedding rehearsal dinner but I know I wont have enough time to watch the offset all day. I e been looking a z grills and noticed...

    Looking good @PrezidentRedz ! Could you do me a favor and walk me through your chimney process when you get time? I'm thinking mine might need it.

    @PrezidentRedz @ahakohda looks like the baffle was the problem. After modding, was able to hold between 200f and 245f with 1 1/4 chimneys of charcoal and adding some hickory and apple wood over 3 hours or so. Decided to try a pork loin and it turned out pretty good for my first run. Gonna get a...

    New Dyna-Glo vertical offset smoker

    @PrezidentRedz @ahakohda thanks for the suggestions. I've trimmed the baffle sides down, bent it up further and drilled a few holes towards the very end and its seemed to help. 1 is thermostat level, 3 is about 6 inches from the top. Closed off the dampers now to get to around 235ish. We'll see...

    @ahakohda thanks for the advice. I'm gonna try removing the baffle and using a water pan instead. Will update hopefully later this week.

    New Dyna-Glo vertical offset smoker

    @PrezidentRedz or anyone else quick question. Do you have a baffle installed on yours, I just came across a reddit thread and a guy had the same problem as me. It came down to his baffle. I installed on yesterday before seasoning so I'm wondering if that may be my problem. I just uses the...

    Nice setup, would love to hear the result! I'm hoping this is just because it's a rainy day, although its covered.

    Door shows 145f and the probe is on the rack just about level with the probe. Door thermometer is garbage apparently.

    New Dyna-Glo vertical offset smoker

    I decided to crack the firebox door and it shot up to 178f so I'm starting to think it's an airflow issue with the door shut.

    Thanks for the reply @PrezidentRedz yes I've got this thermometer hooked up inside the grill. Ignore the timer, I was keeping it on my phone and just decided to start it on there.

    New Dyna-Glo vertical offset smoker

    Alright yall, I just got this smoker set up and I started seasoning it last night. I used 1 chimney and some hickory and apple chips. It was late so I figured I'll get up and do it tomorrow again just for extra peace of mind considering I used a good deal of rtv. I monitored the temp and it got...

    @daveomak I was told you might be able to point me in the right direction to find your upper air intake ideas on this unit or in general. Any help would be appreciated!
