I actually put a gasket on my fire box, and sealed leaky spots with food grade silicone. So on my Dyna-Glo vertical smoker. I don’t need to as much charcoal. I can feed with unlit lump coal to maintain my temperature. Now I understand if it’s cold outside it does make a big difference. I learned that during my trial and error! Loved the video!

This helped me out a bunch, much obliged for the video! I had just gotten the smaller, vertical Dyna-Glo smoker as my first. Never really used charcoal before, but 8 cooks in and I think I've finally gotten the hang of it... sorta! Briskets and roasts have gone over smooth every time, but ribs seem to be troublesome. Heat control has been my big issue. Temps will rise out of the 275 zone if I leave it alone for longer than 20 minutes, at which point I have to open the smoker box up for a few seconds to let heat out and get it back down to 225. If I close the vents any more, the fire chokes out. Added a water pan as a heat baffle, helped a bunch but the heat still gets out of control. I suspect it might be the environment, I live in a desert where daytime temps were up past 90f in October. Do you have any tips for compensating for outdoor temps?
@EverettBBQ
Жыл бұрын
The Dyna-Glo will go high in hotter outdoor temperatures for certain. I try to use smaller fire boxes in that type of environment and possibly a little less lump as well. I think one of the best tips I can give is that a consistent amount of briquettes is probably the best way to sustain temps inside Dyna. I will be posting a new Brisket video tonight featuring the exact times of refills and target temps. Cheers to you and happy smoking, Mike! 🔥

Luckily, today it is just cold, about 48 degrees, and I have my dyna-glo loaded up with 4 brisket and smoking away with some kingsford and mesquite wood. I just keep learning on this smoker. My temp says it isn't running but 135-140 degrees but my meat prob has jumped from 35 degrees this morning when I started up to 99 degrees.

I have 4 on the bottom one blocking the heat vent into the cook chamber directing the heat out another on the other side to help bring the hot spot back to the center then on the next grate I put a water pan so the heat has to work it's way around. I was trying to create a convection cooker.

@@EverettBBQ Let me clarify my heat brick set up. They're all in the cook chamber to regulate heat. 4 on the bottom one in each corner. On the first rack I put one blocking the heat vent to direct that heat more towards the middle. On the same grate I put another one on the far side to redirect that hot spot. On the next rack up I put a water pan in the middle so that redirected heat has to work it's way around the pan. It does at times take a while to get the cook chamber up to temp but it holds great and comes back to temp really fast because the heat bricks retain the heat. The extra mass in the cook chamber I believe makes it take longer to come up to temp. Mine rides 225-275 really well. I also have it in the shade so I am lucky to have a spot like that.

Thank you so much Johny! :) I should have definitely included how I adjust my side vents. In this cook, I didn't have too much trouble going hot because it was so cold outside, so it wasn't as much of an issue. If it were the summer months or something I probably would have started with less coals and likely no added lump (just briquettes) but I definitely like to choke the fire back once it's getting into the 250s depending on what I'm cooking. If it's brisket, I like to get the smoke rolling first and then put the brisket on early and let the smoker get up to the desired temp. You can also experiment with starting the fire box with either the far corner getting the lit coals added or leaving the top third of the entire fire box full and adding more lit coals as a top layer. That might be a better solution if you're experiencing slower starts and running hotter temps. [ One the vents ] You can make a significant adjustment closing the side almost completely and dialing the chimney back as well but even the slightest alteration on the side vents will help control the air flow as long as you adjust early... preemptive moves is what this ole gurl needs. ;) Let me know how it goes.

It's also possible that something happened to that batch of charcoal along the way. Best of luck with your Dyna and thanks so much for checking out the video. 👍

Also, thanks for the inkbird link, it is really showing me how off the stock dyna temp gauge it. The dyna gauge is litterally 30 degrees off, showing 230 but inkbird shows 261. I made your ribs my first time last weekend usimg this and they were over cooked, this has to be why, i only used the dyna temp gauge when making them. Whole time i was smoking them, they were really on for a little over 300 degrees. Glad i used the ink bird for this brisket, pretty expensive. Im almost 4 hours into a 16lb brisket and its looking good. Still need to know what temp the brisket needs tp be to wrapp it?

You started putting up Dyna-Glo videos right about the time I got mine set up and tried my first ever smoke, so I've been learning right along with you. I'm now about 6 cooks in, and I've been fighting with that fire box the whole time. I did make an amazing brisket flat, the best Thanksgiving turkey we've ever had, and some respectable smoked salmon, but I also had some just-OK ribs and a Christmas turkey that was dried out. The fire maintenance is labor-intensive. I noticed you didn't put in any more wood chunks after the first time you lit the fire. Is that really the case, or did that just not end up in the video? Another issue I have with the Dyna-Glo is that you can get flames coming from the fire box into the smoke chamber, which causes temperature spikes. I can lean a tray against the smoke hole to deflect the direct heat, or position a water pan just right, and swing the temperature at the meat by 50 degrees up or down when I have a fresh fire going. How do you manage that little design feature of your Dyna-Glo?
@EverettBBQ

Thank you so much Ted! Glad to be part of the Dyna-Gang. :) Keeping a clean and consistent fire in these little cookers is a chore to be certain. This brisket made a lot of progress early on and I added a lot of wood chunks at the bottom of the firebox, so it got pretty consistent smoke for the first three hours. In my experience, a little bit goes a long way in this cooker but I'm not against adding more on the initial refuel. It will take smoke up to the 160s, so I could have added more but didn't want to overdo it. On the flames coming in and heat spikes, I usually don't get flames into the cook chamber unless I put a lot of wood in there but if I refuel with a lot of lump coal, it can spark up and produce some small flames but not enough to spike it too much. In higher temps/nicer weather, I do like to add a small bread pan on the lowest grate with water as a heat baffle because it can run hot but with these 30-40 degree temps, it hasn't been necessary. How much wood are you usually adding to your cooks? Also - What kind of charcoal are you working with? Best of luck and happy smoking! :)

That's the only actual wood I'm using, the refueling is just briquettes and lump. It is still a rare occurrence that I'll add any wood chunks on a re-fill but it has been done before. I feel if I add more, it starts to over smoke the meats. A little bit of wood smoke in Dyna goes a long way. I believe that is one of the few similarities Dyna has to the kettle, you don't really need a lot of wood to get the flavor you want. Hope all is well with you and yours, Kody! Cheers! 🍻

Thanks so much for checking out the vid. The first initial load up, needs to have a solid store of unlit briquettes on the bottom layer or else a lot of the lump pieces will fall through. Due to the colder temps this fire box was basically about half n half lump and briquettes but I want them unlit, so that I can extend the life of the fire. As long as you are lighting multiple briquettes or lump pieces at once, you won't get that thick acrid white smoke. Just my two cents.

Would you say this smoker is user friendly for beginners new to smoking? You mentioned having to refuel at least once every 3-4hours.

Yes Sir. You are correct, I have to do one good refuel for a couple of racks of ribs. At least, the way I like to smoke them. (2.5 - 3 hours smoked, 1 - 1.5 hours wrapped, then 30 mins glazed) I believe the Dyna-Glo is user friendly for more experienced grillers/smokers but in general, a joy to cook with. I honestly don't have experience with Masterbuilt Electric Smokers but I might explore that realm one day. I won't rule it out but I would stand by the food Dyna has produced and in many cases, it is my smoker of preference, particularly multiple racks of ribs and smoked hams for capacity and flavor.

Hello Robert. The only times I'm in the 300s is when I'm pushing it to get there. Two questions to be clear; 1) Are you using all lump charcoal plus wood chunks? 2) Standard model or wide body model of Dyna-Glo? I own the wide body myself and I try to use mostly briquettes on the initial start up, then start to incorporate a 30/70 mix of lump (30) and briquettes (70) on refueling. I only add fire chunks at the initial start up and potential a small amount on the first refuel but that's usually it for the wood. Best of luck and thanks for the comment! 👍

@EverettBBQ
3 жыл бұрын
I might try a different briquette with less ash. I've read good things about B&B. Sometimes Kingsford runs pretty ashy, not as bad as royal oak briquettes though. 😅 I feel that I have to use a certain combo of briquettes or else the lump doesn't have a proper base to sit on. This is dependent on what type of lump you're using but some have very thin chips that fall right through the chimney and fire box grate of the dyna, so that's why I like a small layer of briquettes at the bottom for temp stabilization and a faux foundation underneath the lump. The only problem with lump is that most of them burn very hot but burn out quicker. The briquette/lump ratio is what I would try to alter. ALSO - Are you adding any sort of water to the cooker? In the summer months I like to use a small bread pan that I place on the lowest rack right next to the fire box and that has really helped tame down the hotter temps that I get in 90 degree type weather outside. I would try to experiment with the lump/briquette combo and add a small pan of water close to the fire box. It will also introduce more moisture into the cook chamber which should help with the smoke ring. Best of luck and happy smoking! 🔥

That way you can experiment with smoke levels of certain foods and how they take to different types of smoke. If you already have a grill and you want to jump into smoking, I would definitely go with the Dyna-Glo. That way, you won't have a fortune invested but you will also experience outstanding cooks and smokey goodness for not a lot ventured. It is a high maintenance cooker in some aspects but the results are certainly worth it in my opinion. Best of luck with your decision!

You can use all lump with wood chunks for flavor and it will get right up to temp. I find that I run higher temps with all lump but the consistency isn't all there. That's a reason why I like to incorporate the briquettes into the mix. I would recommend this smoker for the price. It gets great results but you have to maintain the fire, stirring and refueling on longer cooks. If you want something that is set it and forget it, this isn't really the answer. If you want something that produces great smokey bark and flavor, then this is a great little cooker. Thanks for checking out the vid and best of Luck. :)
