I've got an old New Braunfels
The interesting thing is the firebox is under the left side of cooking chamber.
Using the charcoal pan as a diffuser the heat is directed to the far end of smoker.
Usually cooks pretty good but today!
Home alone , wife working, temp 70F not a cloud in site, light wind.
On deck, drinking a Guiness, listening to Fleetwood Mac, looked at my thermometers & it's never been this good?
Fire box side 225F far side 212F
Must be a perfect storm, temp, wind cooking in sun , who knows but who's complaining
