but when I tried to raise the temp to 250 fro220 I end up with smoke, and temp stays at about 180 derees. I'm about 5.5 hours into the smoke.
Having temperature problems. Temp stays at about 180 degress.
I have since remove the cardboard pieces that I use to attempt to retain heat. I'm using hickory and briquets. I wanted to burn just wood but it seems to smoke too much and not get hot. It has risen to 195 since removing the cardboard. Ventilation maybe the cause. Up to 220 now.
Thanks,
Scott
