New!
Hi Roger,
I had some of the same questions. I am refurbishing a NBBD offset and I can look through the closed lid on the cooking chamber to see light on the other side.
I used some high temp gasket silicone from Autozone on my Brinkman vertical to seal the door, but I am not satisfied with the long-term results.
I used the chimney extension modification and a firebox baffle on my little CharGrill offset which is working pretty well. I moved the thermometer down to the grate level, and also plan to add two more thermometers to the NBBD at grate level.
I like the wheels, and will have to add that to the list. Where did you get the extra axle?
Can we see some pics of the seals?
