BTW if ya are SERIOUS about turning out a good product don't waste yer time with a cheapie flimisy metal thing smoker...step up and spend the dinero and buy one that is made of 1/4" steel plate and 1/2" on the firebox.

You will find that the product is consistantly better than a more of a hit an miss with the cheapie. Consistant temp and less fuel used that can dry out the meat...

Harwood Charcoal is the only way to fly...I have recently gotten a batch of Harwood OAK...burns hot and clean for grilling..won't even go back to Harwood Mesquite if I can keep a supply.

Once ya get a good quality smoker ya can compete with the best BBQ in the world..That is just a fact of life.

I think David Klose of Houston is one of the best mfg of units out there.
