Hi Brick built smokers..
I have finally finished my brick smoker here in the UK and through my initial tests, i am unable to gain a temperature above 93c/199f. But it does stay a constant temperature for hours which is a good thing.
I need guidance on what is going wrong in not being able to get a hotter temperature such as 180c/250f. I have a telescopic chimney with a damper and a small air inlet at the bottom on my lower fire door. I loaded the fire basket with charcoal but still not getting a high heat...
What am i doing wrong. BTW I know i may have missed key information so please ask away.
Many thanks
