It has great temp control but I hooked up an IQ to use on some low and slow cooks/all nighters

slapped a fresh coat of paint,.. I also added some more vents to see if I can get a higher temp if I want. 

Prior to today, I only had 3 ---- 3/4 nipples evenly around the bottom, one had  a ball valve, the other two had caps..with just those three I could only get a high temp about 275*

I have found thanks to those guys about this post, a little higher temps are much better for chickens and such..., so I made some changes to the vents

I ADDED

2  -- 1" nipples with caps, and one of the other 3/4 hole I added another ball valve..

So, I now have Four vents

2  1" nipples with caps

2  3/4'' nipples with ball valves....

Im giving it a run right now and I got 300* after half of chimney lit charcoal after about 30 mins in the UDS... I think that got it. THanks BTW Keith :):)
