Hi Everyone!
So, got bought a KCT upright charcoal smoker for Christmas and tried it out today.
The main problem I found was I just couldn’t get the temperature up! I used a charcoal chimney, stuck the hot coals at the bottom of the smoker and put some hickory wood pellets that I had soaked for an hour or so onto the coals. Then a water pan with cold water above that. Left vents open but just barely got above 100!
Any ideas what I may have done wrong?
Thanks!
