I'm needing some advice on the best way to retain heat while smoking in cold temperatures. I have read that some people have used Hot Water Heater blankets. Any tips, ideas or comments would be great.
Lay a piece of aluminum foil along the length of the bottom of the smoke chamber. Helps reflect the heat back up towards your cooking grates rather than radiating out the bottom. Makes clean up easy too.
The hotwater heater blankets I wouldn't use. From the look of the ones I have seen the fiberglass particles could get in your smoker. I would use a welding blanket if needed.
