    3-2-1 method

    For BB I cut that down to 2-1-1 by putting the racks inside an oven safe turkey bag, wrapping that up and then wrapping in foil. For me it greatly increases the effectiveness of steaming.

    I don't have a floor on mine . Never thought to put one in, I don't move the basket during a cook and the ash falls thru on it's own.  Could be handy if you wanted to remove the basket as Grimm suggests.

    WOW rob that looks awesome! Trek - I have never been able to finish chicken well on the smoker.  I feel like to get the great finished skin it needs to be finished at higher oven temps. Let us know if you figure out how.  However, I love the pig so much I rarely smoke chicken.

    Very nice work!  That stack extension is awesome. To this day I still have a 30-50 degree difference from end to end but it really doesn't bother me. I try to hit 210-220 on the left and 240-250 on the right, plenty of room in there so I just shuffle as necessary and it works great for me.  Did...

    I do not know of any silicon grommets like you are describing.  Rubber grommets like you are describing are made for marine wiring application to pass wiring from the wet area around the console into the dry area below.  You could look there and check and see but I doubt they will hold up to the...

    I don't think you need anything at the firebox opening, can't hurt to try it if you have time.  The gas bricks I put in just on the theory that opening the door blows off so much heat that when closed the temps will come back up faster with something in there holding heat.  I am sure guys run...

    Butt - I don't put them on the bottom. I put them on the rack down there where I assume rob was putting his waterpan.  I have not had a problem with them rotting but I'll keep an eye on them and see tho.   Rob - for me the issue with the water is not that it messes with the airflow (although...

    +1 of losing the water pan, should solve that problem.   I use these in the bottom of my TMLE for some added temp stability....
