I also do not use the flue damper. I control my heat directly with the firebox intake dampers. If you try to chock back on the flue damper, it slows down the draw and the smoke can cool off and condense. This created creasote that can drip onto your food and give it a bitter taste. Just my , YMMV
Steve, do you have a picture of what you are describing here? Are you extending the stack?

Thanks.
