The past month I have ran 3 full smoker runs. The problem is the bottom 2 racks are hot. I usually set my therm on the bottom and work my way up as the meat comes off. I would like ideas how to mod it to cook evenly all the way up.
When doing small runs I use the top two racks. Perfect cook time I can count on. Full runs like this one makes for a very long day. For this run, the therm is in the middle. The bottom didn't burn, but I had about 1/4 in. bark on the bottom two racks. I'm open for ideas how to deflect the heat evenly
Here is how I baffle the bottom. My water pan is in the middle. I only have heat coming around the outside
Would I be better off to turn my baffle so heat is coming through front and back? The back seem to cook hotter anyway. Maybe just baffle it so all heat comes up the front? Give me your thoughts and ideas.
