    What am I doing wrong?

    I also have seen the cheap chimney starters not working and have purchased the large weber one at Lowes for 15 bucks! This thing is a charm and works great!

    First time caller long time listener

    Need to determine if its holding heat and think the only way is adding a gauge on the lid? Have seen the wireless ones and maybe that would be a better choice? It does have an internal meat therm. but cant determine if that's very accurate either? Changed pic and most likely be keeping name...
