Full Fledged Farker
A friend gave me a Brinkman Smoke n Grill the other day. I noticed some things that might create some issues (charcoal pan will likely smother the coals during a long cook, minimal access to coals and water pan, no adjustments for airflow - in or out). I think that a lot of mods are in order, but I would like to see if I can get it to work without any mods yet.
I looked up the manual online and it says to light up a 10lb bag of charcoal with some lighter fluid and dump em in the pan. Not likely.

Instead of consulting the manufacturers, I think asking the real experts is the way to go.
Does anybody have some instructions or tips on how they get theirs to work?
How many briquettes do you use, how do you adjust temp, etc.?
It would really help if you could spell it out for me like I am 6 years old.:redface:
Without the adjustments, I think I need to be on target from the get go or I'll ruin some dinner, no? I really don't want to loose some dinner while my mother is visiting. Got to show some ability to cook. Please help guys.
Thanks all.
