Mark... I'm going to move this to Q-Talk. If you can post pictures of the cooker and more info I'm sure you'll get plenty of advice.
Guys... Mark introduced himself a few days back... http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/sh...ad.php?t=36665

I'm a fan of tuning plates. Simple and less expensive than a reverse flow.

I would go reverse flow, we modified mine back in may, i love it... less fuel consumption and even heat across the pit. easier clean up. here are some pics of the workup and final product. its also in my avatar.
i redid mine after seeing ChromeSporty's rebuild http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/sh...t=reverse+flow

Without seeing it I can already tel you from experience that you will have to put tuning plates in your pit. Reverse flow won't allow you to adjust the temps to a even level.

Personally, I like having different temps in my smoker. It allows me to smoke different meats at different temps at the same time.
Butts and Briskets on the hot end, Ribs, Salmon and Chicken on the cooler end. Lets me shift meat around to the temp I need at that particular time in the smoke. But, then on the other hand, I don't know Jack Didiley about BBQ. PARTY!!!!!!!!!!! |
