Nope. Its as already said really efficient so very little air flow is needed. I smoke for up to 12 hours on two fist sized chunks of wood in my charcoal load.

In you keep the exhaust open you couldn't even get below 350 in my experience.


PS the BGE makes and absolutely fantastic pizza oven. 2 minutes at 800 degrees gets the most amazing crispy bubbly pizza you've ever had at home. The only equal is a big old brick oven.
