I did a fourteen hour cook using a reverse flow smoker and noticed I was going through a lot of wood to maintain a temperature of 250F. When the temperature would settle at 250F most of the wood had burned down too much. I added pre-lit charcoal from a charcoal chimney and threw in slivers of cherry. that seemed to work just fine.
the firebox is a 24" diameter by 22" deep. I put firebricks in there to contain heat and make the box a little smaller and elevated the burn surface to keep air underneath and allow the ash and embers to fall.
If you have a 24" diameter by 22" deep firebox how would you modify it to make it smaller so I don't have to burn so much to keep 250F all night.
