Why is smoke going in the house and not up the chimney?
A chimney will suck air from the house only if there is wind above the chimney. Air movement at the top causes a partial vacuum in the chimney which pulls the smoke up. The smoke could get into the house due to several reasons: there is no wind above the chimney; the chimney is blocked, the smoke is being directed away from the chimney due to other areas of low pressure in the house. You could probably rectify the problem by raising the chimney so that it catches more wind, cooking closer to the chimney inlet, making chimney diameter wider so that there is less resistance to the passage of smoke.
