    Great, cooking at 250f for several hours will be ok then. Seems like I understood. But I’ll be sure to let all the people smoking at 225f around the world know your concerns.

    Thanks. Sorry if I’m being stupid here but will a hole saw of 35mm work in a hand drill that only has 13mm capacity for steel? Do I need a certain type of drill to power the 35mm hole saw?
