Hey folks

do you owners, of the propane vertical smokers, ???????????

when do you open the vents? I have one slider on the back at the top

one on each side............... at the bottom................... of the fire chamber.

I think its a master 40" verticle with 4 shlves

speak now............I have the babys on there as I type..........

Full open on the exhaust, if not you could creosote up your meat.

Mine doesn't have intakes, just sucks air up thru the bottom around the burner.

I have the MB - Dual Fuel Vertical, and I run it this way..... the top... wide open for exhaust....the bottom right anywhere from 1/2 to 1/4 open (with a few times full open) depending on the wind which seems to come from the right side of the smoker to the left all the time.  The bottom left I have closed for every smoke....as I said the wind seems right to left at my house.   

By the Way...  how did the Baby Backs come out???? Grin !!
