Morning everyone. Just decided to cheaply upgrade to an offset smoker. Coming from an electric. I was able to get everything started up great. Quickly realizing im gonna need to seal off the chambers somewhere. But my biggest deal was the smoke. Theres so much of it. I think I smoked out my entire neaighborhood. I created a nice charcoal bed using a chimney. Which also created a shit load of smoke. I used small logs about the diameter of a soda can. I warmed them first, then placed 1 at a time over the charcoal (keeping only 1 log in the charcoal at a time). And thats when someone called the fire dept. It was no issue, but in reality should there be that much smoke coming from this thing? and how do i minimize it? I was thinking maybe not using a small log, maybe using chunks instead? I also, im in so cal, so im in a densely populated area.
