Head Chef
It is an offset firebox.
The firebox is inside the insulated case, over on the right where there isn't an opening for the cooking chamber. The top of the firebox is the chute which is filled with charcoal and wood. It is like all of the Gravity Feed models that Stump's Smokers builds.
On this picture, you can see the access to the ash pan, under the firebox. The ball valve is used to control the temperature by opening for more air, and closing to restrict the air.
The top of the chute where the charcoal/logs can be added is there at the top, right behind the Stump's Smokers logo.
No, I can't cook a pot of beans on top of the firebox, but I can put that pot inside on the grates.
I'll get more pictures as I use it more if and when the weather gets better.
