Hi,
I just bought the 22.5" Weber smokey mountain.
I'm in the process of my first smoke on it (Pork spare ribs).
The plan was a 6 hour smoke.
I was hovering on a good temperature and then got too hot very quickly. I have two vents closed and one not open much at all.
I think my issue is that I put too many unlite briquettes in.
Please could someone shed some light on how many briquettes I should have put in? Lite and unlite.
Should I just have one layer on the bottom or several layers?
A picture would be great.
