How do y'all setup the charcoal in 18" WSM for 350 - 375° hot and fast cook controlled by the Fireboard? Type of charcoal, number of lit vs unlit coals?? Thanks for any advice.

I don't have a WSM, but I run mine on my Kamados. I use lump in mine, but Kingsford or Lump will work in yours. I would buy lump, try B&B Charcoal or FOGO.
If you are using lump, I would light the fire directly in the center of the WSM. Or dump about a 1/2 a chimney, maybe a little less, of red hot coals to the center. Let the fan do the work, but you may have to crack your top damper more. -
Never tried to run my wsm that high, but I think it would work like Spinaker said. You may have to leave the top damper all the way open to get it to run that hot. I have had trouble getting my wsm to stay at 325, but I haven't tried it with a fan control (I have a party q).Comment
