Moose, I used probably about 6 pounds of charcoal over the smoke. It seems that I should have just put more in to begin with. My vents were wide open, and about 4 hours in, I had finally added enough charcoal that it heated up to where it need to be.
Well the temp got up to 233 now. So I think I just didn't manage my charcoal well. I should have stirred the ashes sooner, and added a bit more charcoal initially. That probably would have solved my problems.
