Temperatures across the Royall RG2000 grate are amazingly tight.  

I believe this is because of the way smoke and heat exits out of the center top through a diverter pulling from both left and right.


I hooked up three Rock's Stoker probes left, center and right.


Here are a couple of results.

I just added a chimney to the Royall 2000 to keep most of the smoke our of the cook area.

Come on now, you gotta know I love the smell of a clean smoke but I do not like it when it fills up the cooking patio nor do I enjoy cleaning the ceiling.   :)

Also it interfers with the game. ;)

Little on the small size but I did not think of a patio when I built my work shop next to the house.

Nice mod with the chimney stack so you don't smoke out anyone sitting under the patio cover.

Thank you  and plus the fact of eliminating the monthly cleaning of the patio ceiling.
The stack is removable unlike my old system on the modified traeger.
