Am planning a masonry smoker modeled after one found in a newly received book on the subject, and constructed in the style of many 19th century brick homes--double brick walls, Dutch bond, on a stone base, with a salvaged slate shingle roof. Fingers crossed[emoji]128527[/emoji]
Question--how critical (or necessary) is insulation to make this construction work? Plan to use a small wood fire or charcoal to achieve the desired 225-275 F smoking/cooking temps. (Project is located in south central PA)
