So I picked up this new smoker today, and have a couple questions. I have been using a Komodo Joe, so I know these two will be way different in use.
1. I've read on earlier models where the chips burn up in about 45 min or so unless using a AMNS. Is this still the case on this model?
2. Heating it up to 275 for the 3 hours recommended to begin with, I placed 3 igrill probes on different racks to monitor the different levels. Noticed after 20 min the top and middle were reading around 290 and the bottom was reading around 280. I went out to the smoker and the readout on the smoker itself was 257. Anyone else encountered this with theirs?
Thanks in advance!
