The main difference is with the reverse flow smoking technology of this offset smoker. Normally, the traditional smoker makes fire only in the firebox and thus the heat and fire guide to the main chamber. Afterward, it leads to cooking the food inside over here and emits out smokestack which is mounted oppositely to the firebox. Here comes the difference with the reverse flow. That is basically different from the smokestack which is not only mounted over there also it set beside underneath of your 4 cooking grates also you may see the four porcelain-coated baffles.
