First burn of the year

[stanleyjohn]

Temp dropping into the mid 20s tonight so i figured good enough for the first burn of 2015-16 season.Wood good and seasoned and temp in home climbing from 68 to 73 now and still climbing.Afterburner still working like a charm after 6 years.Heres a pic!You can see the afterburner chamber in action threw the glass.

I fired mine up for the first time last night and its cookin right now. Its our first year with one and even though its an older local made stove its ripping and running good!

"Afterburner" sounds way cooler than "Secondaries".

Have had a few fires going off and on in my new QF 5100i. Same for me last night, got it cooking pretty good watching the game last night and a good bed of coals this morning. Loaded it up again before I left for work. The wife works from home. Hoping it will still have a good bed of coals when I get home today. Stratford CT here.

Its nice and i like the fact that you start with a open damper which helps cut down on a smokey start.The bad part is you need hot coals and a good downdraft for the afterburner to work well.
