I seem to get about 1 hr 15 mins per chimney (in about 30 degree weather) in my chargriller Pro. Havent had it over the summer yet so that may extend a little. I used my newly made charcoal basket on a raised grate this weekend and that really bumped my temps up - and lengthened the time between re-fills.

Yea the charcoal basket is nice. I was just playing and comparing to others. Learning is fun!

Your gettin 15 more than I did. Thanks

per other users on this site - I put a heavy old rug over the smoker to help insulate on the colder windy days. However 70 deg tomorrow!!! spring almost here!!!
