Bull Anyone tried one of these

Heavy D Stick Burning Heat Diffuser" from Smoke Daddy? I;m guessing the extra smoke only lasts a couple of hours as the wood burns down.

As a matter of fact that is what I'm using on my Rec-Traeger. Very heavy duty and works well with larger pieces of wood, don't use chips.

@Chris_G Do you have a build thread for your Rec-Traeger Custom Build?

No, I think folks frowned on doing this.

Who did?

Hi Mike,
I suspect Recteq, the reason I say this is because they (Recteq) no longer offer the controller or the wiring harness as a separate item. I saw a open box controller on eBay for $300 not too long ago. When I did this project all items were on the website but I trust people like me were doing conversions and not buying new grills.

So, I didn't get scolded or anything but not sure if my efforts are appreciated

Probably closer to 3 hours before the smoke is gone. By that time, your meat doesn‘t have the capacity to take on much more smoke flavor anyway (assuming we are talking about cooking meat and not a cold smoke process).

If the wood doesn't flash (catch fire) I have got about 2 hours of smoke. The key seems to be large pieces of wood. When purchased the unit comes with two large custom cut pieces of wood.

@gwrace1, you could also use the search function in the upper right corner. Might give you more reading/info/viewpoints.

The Smoke Daddy site also has a lot of good info on their product.

Yeah I could see how they might frown on that... Thank you Chris
