Smoking tube questions

[SaintBBQ]

How do you cut off a smoke tube (i.e. snuff it when you want to put it out if all done cooking?

You can dump out the pellets onto a metal tray or pan and separate the burnin pellets from the non burning pellets. I usually just let mine continue to burn and burn itself out.

Over time you'll figure out the exact amount you'll need for any particular cook and there will be little to nothing left.

My 6" tube hold 2 hours worth, normally that is all I need. If I want to add some smoke flavor to what I'm grilling, then just fill it half and let it burn out. I have honestly never tried to put pellets out but the beer idea would work.

For what little bit of pellets or dust that's left, if there is any, just gets dumped out in the gravel drive in front of the barn.

I use a retired aluminum stove top pan to dump the leftover pellets into. The hot pellets, what there is, go out pretty fast. Very easy.

I just shake mine little to seperate the burning pellets or let it burn out. It's about the only good use for pellets.

I stop the AMNPS by separating the burned from the unburned.
When I was young my tube would burn out pretty quick, but learned to control it.
