There's a solid waterproof between the two chambers with a drain in it. See the slots that are at the bottom of the cook chamber? That's where the smoke leaves the firebox and travels to the inside top of the cook chamber. Then the exit for the chimney is at the bottom of the cook chamber so it exits there and travels back up the back wall and out the top back.
