Reply to "Chicken question"

Andy,
The less you open the door the better. The only time I've had a fire was with chicken after I had the door open. What happens is the firepot gets stoked to catch up the temp and the grease catches on fire. It's best to just look @ your temp readout. If it's close to set point you're good.
If you do have a fire, don't open the door (ever seen Backdraft). Turn the unit off and cover the exhaust. When it's out, make sure you're hopper is not on fire! Remember: Door Gaskets are cheaper than Plastic Surgery!
