What type of cedar is preferred? I remember reading someone saying that one varietal was better than another, but can't find that post again.
What is the science of the exhaust pipe? I see some smoke houses have the exhaust coming out the bottom and a long pipe up, while others have an exhaust simply out the roof.
Has anyone used cork as insulation in their smokehouse? I am considering using ~1/2" cork underlayment board as insulation between an interior and exterior layer of cedar tongue & groove siding. Naturally fire retardant and zero added formaldehyde/VOC's.
