    Increase Propane smoker heat output

    Oh here is the solution that really did it, get a 6x8ft welding blanket, wraped it around the smoker, cut holes for ventilation and screwed back the handles and all fixtures again over the double layered welding blanket.

    can i use charcoal and propane at the same time?

    So i just tested that , the charcoal actually goes off, as it looks like the propane sucks all oxygen out , even with all vents open, it didnt add any heat, maybe some flavor, will try with large wood chunks next time

    can i use charcoal and propane at the same time?

    Thanks guys! , I just read some of those duel fuel manuals and they clearly say, DO NOT USE BURNER WHEN LIGHTING CHARCOAL, but they may do that for liability issues, I will try using both next time and will overwatch it. Page 20 here http://pdf.lowes.com/operatingguides/872076013860_oper.pdf

    I have a vertical propane smoker, but I struggle to get heat up in the cold winter of Canada. I do have a very large smokebox tray, and I am thinking of using charcoal in there as well as propane at the same time, any issues you think with that?

    Increase Propane smoker heat output

    Many thanks guys! i would also think adding chunks of charcoal in the wood chip box to increase heat , rather than fiddling with the orifice, any thoughts..?
