Knows what a fatty is.
I have designed a small reverse flow offset smoker ,and have used the Feldon Calculator to run my numbers. I have contact a couple of fabricators, and they have questioned some of the numbers. The number that get their attention the most is the half moon opening from the firebox to the cook chamber. Feldon and another smoker calculator (don't remember his name) agree on the calculation. The number is 45.5 inches squared. Another thing of concern is the heat channel to the opposite end of the cook chamber. From all I read the channel should be the same size opening (45.5 sq. in) as the opening from the fire box to the cook chamber. I would appreciate any experienced thoughts on my dilemma. Thank you!
