Any reviews on how well the smoke daddy works? I’m trying to get more smoke flavor.

It's works. Getting chunks of wood cut to properly to fit is my issue. But, it does work.Any reviews on how well the smoke daddy works? I’m trying to get more smoke flavor.

One or two guys said they like wood chips over pellets in their tubes. I haven't tried wood chips, but I am very pleased with the performance of a smoke tube and my pellets.
I wonder if taking the smoke stack rain hat off would give you more draft. Certainly you could put o piece of dryer ducting on it to extend it and get more draft. I did that with my stick burner and it created a lot of draft.Definitely need to shim the lid. I cannot maintain 200-225 on my bull unless the lid is cracked.
For what it's worth, mine sits in the bottom with no fire bricks and i have no issues.
A stick burner benefits, actually needs, proper draft. Pellet grills do not produce draft. The air in the pellet grill is whatever the fan is pushing in.I wonder if taking the smoke stack rain hat off would give you more draft.

Greg, since a pellet grill produces heat in the drum like any other grill/cooker, it will tend to rise and as it does, draw in air thru the fan duct, whether the fan is running or not. I'm not aware of any valves that close when the fan is off in a pellet grill.A stick burner benefits, actually needs, proper draft. Pellet grills do not produce draft.

Perhaps. I don’t usually run my grills under 225°, so my fans rarely shut off. The firebox has, IIRC, 4, 1/8’ holes. Not a lot of air source there to draw on.Greg, since a pellet grill produces heat in the drum like any other grill/cooker, it will tend to rise and as it does, draw in air thru the fan duct, whether the fan is running or not.
