Masterbuilt Cold Smoker

Does anyone do any mods to the cold smoker to keep the smoke from coming out of the top of it or do you need to leave it that way for it to work correctly?

I just put something heavy on it.

Here I just put a split on it, but anything heavy like a brick or block would work too.

I guess you could rig up some kind of latch to clamp it tight too, but this works for me.

Thanks Al. Do you think a gasket around it would help it as well?

Yes, I'm sure a gasket would help.

The thing puts out enough smoke that even with leaks it works fine.

For cold smoking I even put a fan in front of it with the ash drawer open a bit to get the smoke moving through faster.
