Hi all,
I have a small annoyance with my 2008 18" WSM. I have a Stoker that I only like to use for long overnight cooks; otherwise I prefer to use the smoker normally. After the cook is finished I'd like to smother the fire by closing off all the vents. The problem is, the fitting for the Stoker blower has two holes permanently fixed open. So far I've cut down wine corks to plug these holes up with to starve the fire, but they're too large in diameter. Is there a preferred way to stop up these two openings when not using the Stoker blower?
Thanks.
