I have a homemade smoker made of 1x6 Pine.
It will be used mainly for making jerky with internal air temps around the 150*F mark.
My question is what would be the max sustained air temp I could have before I should start worrying about it being too hot and the wood catching fire?
I'm guessing the 225*F temps used to smoke large cuts of meat would be too high even with a tray of water to to keep the meat and air humid.
