I've been having trouble getting good smoke rings in my UDS. I'm using Good-one lump with chunks of cherry and hickory. I have noticed that the drippings are almost extinguishing the lump and soaking the wood to the point it won't smoke or even smolder. The drums got one 3/4 vent open and will hold 225 steady. I'm considering so sort of heat shield over the fire basket. Any thoughts?
