Smokin Monkey Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 That could be the problem. Thats why we say play with your Smoker before you cook. How much Charcoal is alight in the firebox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldencrunchs Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 How would I go about doing that? Add more charcoal? Firelight some in the middle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Monkey Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I would say you need up to this line of lit coals, if you used fire lighters to start with go with them and add more up to the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icefever Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Missed the last few post matey, been busy in the kitchen....looking ok so far your doing fine. Your first run is like when you become a dad...you pace up and down, sweat, bite your nails...but it all comes good in the end. Take your time and keep an eye on the internal temp......
