    Alright fellas I'm kinda new to this whole quality smoker thing! I currently have a char griller that was purchased from Home Depot as a gift. I have done a few mods (new thermometers, gasket sealer, brought down the smoke stack closer to the grates, welded a deflector in it with tuning plates)...
