Vermont Castings Woodstove

This video was uploaded so I could show the VT Casting dealer the problem with the woodstove. It appears that a hot gas flare is creating enough pressure inside the stove to force smoke out the griddle gasket even with the weight of a large pot of water on top. There is no wind outside, the catalytic converter is engaged, the stove temp is about 400+ and the air intake is set to low (slightly forward of vertical). The smoke puff's do not happen when the catalytic convert is disengaged. The gasket is a year old. The griddle is new. It only smokes when the hot gas flame-up occurs - which is not often.
