I've got a Pitmaker safe that I really like. Spend that last 8 months really getting to know this thing. I've had some problems with way too much moisture in the cooking chamber, so i've cut back on the amount of water in the lower pan.
I've tried to smoke at 250, but this smoker just doesn't seem to like that temp.
I tried again this past weekend, and all i got was billowing white smoke coming out of the top.
I had started my charcoal, added 3 chunks of Pecan wood, and left it all in the charcoal started until the wood and charcoal turned to ash. Preheated the Safe with a propane weed burner torch. I went up to 300, because i know it'll drop as soon as i close the door. I setup the charcoal in the firebox in a UPSIDE DOWN U shape.
It seemed that trying to smoke at 250 just chokes the fire.
So, i'm wondering if i should invest in a Cyber Q Cloud for me Pitmaker safe. Its about $350 for the fullsetup, but is it going to do what I'd like it to do ?
Any responses would be welcome. Thanks in advance.
