    Beef back ribs trouble

    vertical gas smoker - too much smoke?

    yeah there is a vent on the back of it so it does have one. I do need to put another vent in the bottom to get more air in and help me control my temps. at the moment I can just cracking the door at the bottom with a little splint to get some flow in there.
