I'm trying something different in my UDS today... Instead of using a water pan as a heat shiled (mounted on a grate above the coals, I dropped a perforated pizza pan directly on top of the fire box to see how that would work as a heat diffuser. I actually wanted to suspend the pizza pan above the fire box, but was already running late for church so I "improvised"
Three hours later I still have some white smoke, not billowing smoke mind you, but enough to annoy me. Think the fat from the butt is dripping into the fire and increasing the smoke?
