Never mind...

IR2DUM reminded me today that the open fire is at the BOTTOM of the pile, therefore there is no fire to poke and really nothing to mess with.

That is not correct. It comes with a fire poker. You occasionally need to poke the coaled over wood (from the side of the firebox) to make way for the newly coaled over wood. This is my favorite part.

Every now and then I have to redistribute the hot bed of coals. It's the fun part.

Y'all are taking advice from somebody that is 2dum?? ??? I guess y'all believe everything you read on the interweb, too. ;) ; I think 2dum took his advise from 1Bigg_ER when he clarified a question somebody asked.....that the fire burns upside down and showed a picture to clarify. He now stands corrected and is glad that Jaxon and David will be able to poke at it when they get theirs.

After seeing the Assassin Grill at $599, I think I've found my next grill.

KBCUE is innovative and seems to help cook some awesome food, BUTT, on my budget it is out of sight.

I believe the Assassin is more in line with the backyard jack in most guys and there is a small learning curve.

At $600 for the assassin, you're almost halfway to the KBQ. Plus you'll be cooking with all wood.

Eventually when I am settled somewhere permanent I think I am going to buy a Karbecue. That is the first stick burner I have seen that I really want.

And I got no one to tell me no either :P

Here's how the clean and dirty smoke combo works. This is when you want a heavier smoke flavor
See those two thingamajigs? That's where the smoke gets into the cookbox. I pulled the bottom one out fully. Top one is closed, that's all clean smoke


Notice how the flame is shooting up, that's any smoke going into the cooking box is passing through the hot bed of coals.
Under the firebox is where the inverted flame shows






Now, here I got both thingamajigs pulled out. That's the clean and dirty smoke combo



Look at the flame shooting into the lnlet, getting pulled into the cookbox. You'll also notice that there's no bellowing smoke even though it is called "dirty smoke"



Now that's fire management.

The so called dirty smoke is actually cleaner than the smoke coming off a well managed stick burner.

That's not sauce, spritze or mop on that meat. Just the KBQ magic.
