    Holy shit man ... I had just stacked the first 4 logs in my offset when you posted this video . I’ve been having a horrible time trying to keep a good coal bed and I’ve been having 30-40 defree swings in a matter of seconds. I was burning through ridiculous amounts of wood am having extremely long cook times . Instead of putting my first two splits in long ways with the fire box I was putting the side to side and stacking my second row long ways . That one simple change has made a huuuuuugggeeee difference .

      Thanks the principle of a coals bad is the same once u have that, i would just add one small log or chunks when needed just because smoking chamber is very small. The number one mistake is not to load too much wood . Smoker is not an oven you got to take in consideration time of reactions. With small devices my preferred average temp is 220 f

    Max!! Nice video. I'm fairly new to bigger smokers. It's no where near the size of your pits, but it's the biggest I've had. It's actually a 250 gallon reverse flow smoker. I've got a pretty big firebox, it's a bout 1/3 size of the cooker chamber. At times, I'm getting sooty smoke. It will cover the meat and exposed grates with a soot film. It's only happened twice but what causes that?

      Very much make sure u have a nice bright coals bed and when needed feed the fire slowly with one or two pices of wood. In small device build ur fire more towards the door of the smokerto avoit excess of direct heat onto thecooking chamber. Take the time to see how the wood burn and the reaction in terms of heat and high low fire.
