So is creosote a product of wood not burning or the buildup of smoke from too much smoke "hanging around" (hence the reason to run the vent wide open). In addition, by limiting the amount of wood or spreading out the pellets in your tray, can you limit the amount of smoke per cycle thereby limiting the amount of smoke within your smoker at any one time. I know notes are preached here but for beginners, what should be be looking for? (running a MES 40 with no tray - STOCK setup).
