Got my 32 qt pot

[lemans]

So without the "tuna can" mod the fire snuffed itself out at the five hour mark. Still had unused charcoal in the bottom
Maybe side vents with
A brass valve...

I've already made my recommendations.... I did a 14 hour burn at 250 on Saturday.

As the others said too many lit coals. The only time I even use the chimney is if I forgot my propane torch, or if I'm in a hurry and I'm cooking chicken.

Final test run of new mini half chimney of lit into half unlit . Let's see how long it burns and the temps with modified tuna type can

half might even be to much... let's see how it goes...

Three hours in sitting at 250. I think I love this smoker

Well it snuffed itself out after five hours
And too temp was 300 before "tuna can" it was like 450 . Humm not enough air
I think I'm going to have to drill two holes in the base right under the lip . Like a gold joe

Well I bit the bullet and drilled two 7/8 holes
User the lip and installed to brass values
Gave it a test run and all charcoal was burned. 20 briquettes in a small circle at the center gave me 210 for two hours..
I guess next mod. Cut out the bottom!!!
