I did run into a bit of an issue. I just got this smoker last summer and have only done shorter smokes with ribs. What happened today is there is not enough space between the grate and the bottom of the firebox to hold all the ash from the spent charcoal. So it started to choke out my fire and I was having trouble holding the temp I wanted. Getting all that ash out of there with a bunch of hot coals still burning was some fun.
So I'll have to make some mods and buy a charcoal basket.
