Many lang owner clainm 45 mins a split, is that true if not what is the time you get between adding splits to fire? My splits are 2 to 3 inches wide 12 inches long on reveree flow.i gave 120 gal and greatful to get 20 mins adding split oak and split of cherry to coal bed.
 
it all depends on how seasoned the wood is and if you got a good bed of coals but sometimes I can get a hour . also thewind blowing too affects the burn time .
 
My splits are usually 16-18" long and beer bottle thick or slightly thicker. Depending on conditions I may add one of two and get 45-75 minutes.
 
talking down on a fella for the size of his wood... /tsk

(there was probably a better way to go about it - but damned if I know what'd it be.)
 
I did not realize how big a 120 gallon was till I googled it , cooker that size you would need full size splits the size of 3 pop cans and the small splits to help keep the big splits going if you do not have a good bed of coals .
