Hello everyone,
I've been reading posts around this forum for a little while now, and really appreciate all of the information I have come across. So thanks for that! Here's my question... I'm getting a FREE Master Forge "Dually" (I think, the on with the door on the front, square box charcoal grill). Like the one in the picture, but a little dirtier.... I plan on smoking on the unit, and know I need to do the high temp gasket around the lid and front door. The 2 questions are:
1. Should I do something with the stock chimney? Extend it lower into the unit? Does it need any work with the high temp gasket?
2. How can I get it really clean again? Its been sitting around for at least a year unused, and possibly longer. I have the option of pressure washing it, but what should I do from there?
for my smoking adventures, I plan on making a firebox out of expanded metal, placing the basket on the right side of the unit, and the meat on the left side (under the chimney)... for the indirect method. I guess another question; should I put some sort of metal "wall" in the unit to make it have its own "smoke box", or will the indirect method be good enough?
Glad to be here, ready to learn a lot!
Thanks all,
Ryan
