Thanks for all the responses and well wishes. I couldn't wait to fire up this cooker and see what it can do. I was excited and a little disappointed. I suspected the airflow to the fire box was insufficient. So would get a great fire going with clean smoke from oak wood and soon as I close the fire box, it would smolder and smoke like crazy. I was really happy with the smoke and heat distribution inside the chamber, there is great potential here. Also, I feel like the cooking chamber needs a drain for when I need to wash it out. Since I am out of money, I am getting a buddy to just cut large rectangular holes on the side of the fire box. One day I will put doors on them.
For this first cook, I had the big meats on about 4-5 hours then I put them on the pellet cooker so I could go to bed.
So I smoked some pork shoulder steaks till the internal temps were about 110, then seared them on my Weber Kettle. The people I cooked for loved them. I was really happy with the tenderness but I tasted the flaw in the smoke.
I love this journey as a BBQ Cook!
