Maintaining Your Smoker 

There is more than one way to fire up your smoker. Here at Myron 
Mixon Smokers we find the easiest way is to use a chimney starter. 
Once the charcoal is lit in your chimney starter (

it normally takes 10-

20 minutes for your charcoal to be fully lit

), pour the lit charcoal 

(

charcoal is ready when you see orange color deep in the chimney 

starter

) into the chimney chute and then pour the remaining 

charcoal on top. As the charcoal burns it will feed down the chimney 
chute.

 

Depending on the tempertures you cook at and experince 

level in controlling your pit you may use ½ - 1 lb of charcoal per hour, 
so fill your charcoal shoot accordingly. 

 

After loading the charcoal chute, you can add wood 
chucks or wood chips in the firebox below the chimney 
right onto the ash pan. Smoke flavor from the wood will 
carry into the cook chamber.  

Temperature can be controlled with the ball valve on the 
outside of the firebox door. Adjusting the valve will 
control how much oxygen is added to your fire. 
Temperature control devices like the BBQ Guru can easily 
be hooked up to help maintain temperature. All that is 
required is a 1 ½” adapter that screws into the ball valve. 
.and the temperature control system and fan. 

 

Be sure to tighten the latches on your Vulcan Gravity Feed once the 
gasket settles.
