Hi,
I've just built my own smoker. It is based on a 18.5" Weber kettle, with a big cylinder of metal to give the height between the base and the lid. I'm going to buy a kiln shelf to use as a heat diffuser at the bottom of the cylinder. Does anybody know how big the diffuser should be?
The smoker is about 17" across. I've found a kiln shelf that is 14.5" diameter, which will give me just over an inch all the way around. Does that sound like enough? Or too much?!
Thnaks for any thoughts
