All,
I fired up my duo this weekend and was surprised that with just a
chimney starter full of royal oak lump, I got up to 300 degrees with
the vent 1/2 open on the side firebox. That was a bit high for what I
wanted to smoke (beef ribs). How much luck have others had with
maintaining 200-225 on that rig, which I thought was the ideal temp
for low and slow.

Other than that - it's been a honey of a smoker. the split chicken
breasts turned out juicy and flavorful.
