    New build 60x24!

    Really happy with this smoker! Very easy to run…it loves 12 x 2”-3” splits to rum 225-250, a couple of 2” splits to run 275. Really good smoke flavor on this 😜

    New build 60x24!

    Lol, thanks! I ended up settling on this set up to push the smoke/heat straight up out of the throat into my water pan shelf…then it enters the chamber settling down & accross. Works really good but rather than a hot spot on the bottom right, it created a cold spot as I figured it would lol...

    New build 60x24!

    Thanks Red! I had my buddy cut them out on his CNC plasma…along with the other brackets aswell. Saves a lot of time lol! I’m actually looking into one myself…we’ll see 😜. This smoker runs very good! My reverse flow did aswell…really appreciate Dave’s input & time on this forum. His...

    New build 60x24!

    UPDATE! Finished the build & finally settled in on the deflector/baffle…it’s something totally different but it works great!!! Runs outstanding & got the bottom grate within 2-3 degrees from left edge all the way to the right edge with no hot spots & no tuning plates. First meal on it tonight...

    New build 60x24!

    Lots of progress in the last couple days! Still not sure on what type of baffle/deflector I’m going to use…I’m thinking I’ll try it without anything but put a shelf for a water pan about 4” above the great level just over the FB/CC opening.

    Enlarging smoke stack on pellet grill

    Just a thought here…being a pellet rig with a fan there is no draft so adjustments to the stack may not be as sensitive.

    Yes sir! Recteq’s are great pellet rig…I have the new Lonestar pellet rig aswell 👍. That’s actually a 65 c10 that we’re building! It’s now a quad cab 😁

    New build 60x24!

    What’s up ya’ll! Starting another build 😁. I built a reverse flow last year using Dave’s calculations & it runs so damn good! I sold that one & I have a few guys that want them now so I’m going to build a traditional offset now to have plans on them aswell! Here are a couple pics of my...

    More smoke flavor?

    Thanks bud, I’ll give it a shot! That pic was longer splits…I have been using 10-12” inches. Probably just turn my basket sideways up against the intake.

    More smoke flavor?

    Thanks! Yes very similar process, next time I’ll try not pre-heating my splits, that little bit of smoldering on every new split may add more flavor. I’ve used mesquite in the past & the family doesn’t care much for it lol. My pit runs excellent & very clean. I used Dave Omack’s recommended...

    More smoke flavor?

    Sure do bud! I’ll try that, I always start with a chimney of lump charcoal…dump it all in when it’s ready & let the smoker heat up for about 30 minutes & drop a 12” x 2” split…it’ll run about 250 with intake wide open & exhaust. If I start closing the intake to about half, TBS goes away &...

    More smoke flavor?

    I have noticed that about tending the fire all day & tasting better the next day. I’ll try moving the water to the hottest area in the chamber, thanks.

    More smoke flavor?

    So I built my reverse flow last year & it has been awesome. I’ve settled in on TBS by running wide open intake & adjusting heat by the size of my fire. As you would imagine, my coal bed is pretty small to maintain 225-250. I use 12” x 2” splits to achieve that & it works great, nice & clean...
