After ten years I retired my old Brinkman and got an Oklahoma Joe.

I very quickly learned that I don't need as much wood. I set up the initial burn with a lot of wood and charcoal so I would not have to tend it. For my first smoke I put in the usual amount of lump charcoal and after getting everything going it was too much. I had to leave the fire box open for almost an hour to let everything burn down. I only added two logs during the whole smoke. This holds heat a lot better than the brinkman.
