New Daniel Boone owner - I smoked a 3lb brisket yesterday for 4 hours at ~240 (2 hrs at 230 & 2 hrs at 250) and used about 15lbs of pellets. It was about 25-30 degrees, with maybe 5mph winds but that amount of usage still seems really high. Is cooking at 25-30 that much harder on the grill than the 52-56 that's in the manual? I don't have a thermal blanket.
On a side note I set the temp at 250 and after 2 hours it only got up to 230. After two hours I changed the setting to 275 and it quickly got up to 250. Once it hit 250 and I set back to 250 it maintained that temp. What's up with that?
