Wanted a 2nd shelf in the Daniel Boone that was easy to take out. So I did this modification.
This really doesn't qualify as a "mod" but it sure is useful. Mosquitos are pretty bad out here, so I do my cooking in a screened porch. With the stack as it is, all that smoke goes straight up and starts discoloring the ceiling. With a 3" elbow and some extension pipe, I can direct it off the porch. This was particularly useful yesterday when the grease drain on the DC was blocked and I heated the grill up to 500 to cook some steaks. Vaaaaaast clouds of black smoke, followed by ignition and about 6" - 12" of flame shooting out of the pipe. Good thing that wasn't going straight up!
Obviously no air flow issues when bent? No huge temp offsets or fluctuation?
LSFS, can you post a pic or two of how you mounted the Traeger front shelf? It looks like it's mounted outside the barrel (like my Tailgater's) on the Traeger and to the front of your DB. I couldn't insert your original post because it seems my only choices are from the second page of the thread. Thanks,BP
Here is a side shot. The bolt on the side of the leg is the one I added. There is also a bolt on the front of the leg but it lines up with the GMG leg bolt. [ Invalid Attachment ]
