I can't believe I'm the first to swing buy and say Hi to the fellas at Shirley Fabrications. I know they're probably to busy to drop by themselves.
Keep Up the Good Work :clap2:
Good honest folks over at SF..Great workmanship for a fair price..TQ was a pleasure to deal with..Having only dealt with a UDS for the last few years,the sheer size of my new SF rig threw me for a loop..Reverse Flow only added to my confusion..I was having a problem getting the temps above 190..After 2 failed attempts to hit 250,I give TQ a call..
He assured me the problem was me & not the cooker..He was right..My problem was the size of the splits I was using(too big)..My wood guy agreed to split the splits down to roughly the size of a baseball..Now I lay down a full chimney of lit,place 2 small splits of either side of the coals,leave the FB door open til the fire really catches up..Throw 2-3 more splits in & leave door cracked..15-20 min later close it up & open a cold one!!
Now I got it down:
Give me 1 & 1/2 hrs.& that huge cold main chamber will be rockin at 250-275 with ease!
Thx guys for stopping buy and thank you for the business...... Jay I must say myself that is a beautiful cooker.... Dang it is pretty sitting there.......
