    Jeffs rub and Sauce

    this question will probably raise a few eyebrows, asking it on this site, but i am going to ask it anyway. there are very conflicting reports available, as to how good this  is " one fits all rub and sauce " . At around $18,  when there are 100's of free recipes out there, it seems very over...

    ECB--good burn off, then first smoke disaster.

    how many vents?

    trawl[ing the internet, but as usual everything is in america. before i decide on vent mods, it seems that most of you have three or four intake vents, but only open them about a quarter. so it swould appear that you only really need one, which would obviously be cheaper, and quicker, not that...
