I got a package from Jonok yesterday with parts for my new Masterbuilt smoke mod that allows me to use chunks.
This is what came in the box:

This is what my smoker looked like prior to the mod:

Wiring was starting to have heat issues. Cleaned everything up, reconnected it and opted not to flip element because I didn’t want to drill any more holes.

Putting in the blocking plates and valve:

Put some wood in the pan, turned it up to 275 and watched for anything bad to happen.

Came up to 275 by about 45 minutes, and made nice blue smoke.

Gonna rub up a couple butts and get them on for an overnight smoke!

I may have to try this myself. I was looking at Jonok's recent post earlier today. Genius Mod for sure
 
Thanks, I couldn’t wait. I started the smoker at about 16:00 got up to temperature very quick. Nice blue smoke. I have pics to post I’m working until late this evening. The price to pay.

I’m going to send him a a gratuity and my first child. Set it at 16:00 next morning 08:30 it was tasty.
 
I’ll post product pics when I get through with my day and night job.
