I have the Char-broil American Smoker, and have a question concerning the firebox and fires.....
first of all, the minion method...if I understand this correctly, I make a pile of charcoal in my firebox, and start another pile in my charcoal lighter can...once the coals are hot, I put them over the other ones I already have in a pramid in the firebox...
with this method, will it get too hot? I built a ver small fire tonight, of about 20 briquettes right in the box, and it rose to 300 in the chamber for quite a while...will more coals make the fire hotter?
