Mine will only change the temp about 10 degrees before it starts choking the fire and getting bad smoke.

Walk through the whole procedure from start up to adding would for a Junior if you would please. I have several drums and pellet smokers never had a offset so I really don't know where to start with the Jambo and not much on the web. I have read how to start a Lang and other offsets buti do know the Jambo is a different animal.

Actually, there is a good video of them starting a Lang that I used as the basic info to start mine and the process is exactly the same. When I got my pit, I called Jamie and asked the same question you asked and he walked me through the steps, that are what both me and Pappy said. The theory is pretty simple, all it takes is practice. Small, hot fire, clean smoke.

I typically have the plate closing about a third of the stack, then vary it about 1/2" or so each way to tweak the temp. That gets me about 10*.

Pappy, do you leave the drain valve open when you cook. It has been smoking nice I think I'm trying to adjust much. I like 275 and it wants to run at 265 I think that is where it is happy

Sorry for so many questions. How much temp swing due you get when adding a new log, Also is split logs OK or due they need to be whole? Yesterday everything was going smooth at 275 then after two hours into the cook with no changes it decides to take off to 290 is this common?

Is the cooking part of a Jambo insulated also or just the firebox?
