My offset smoker's door gasket failed mid-cook yesterday
I was running a 225 degree cook on a 18 pound brisket, got about 6 hours in, and noticed smoke pouring out the side of the door. Turns out the high-temp rope gasket just disintegrated in one spot. I had to MacGyver it with some wet paper towels and foil just to finish the cook. The meat turned out fine but it added an extra hour to the cook time. Has anyone found a brand of gasket that actually holds up longer than a year?

Heard the LavaLock gasket lasts years if installed right.

Hell yeah, mine's been holding strong for three seasons now with no issues.
