This has been an ongoing problem for me, especially for briskets. I can't seem to get my XL BGE to hold 225-230 to cook a brisket. It really likes to sit north of 250. If I close the vents down any further, the temp will continue to drop into the high 100s. Just to get it to hold around 250 the bottom vent is open just a hair and the top vent just a hair as well. Not sure if its me or the egg. Any tips or suggestions? I do load up a lot of charcoal to handle the 16+ hour cook briskets usually require. Using the platesetter as well. Not sure what I can do. I really don't want to spend $300-$400 on one of those electronic temp things. I've already spent enough on the egg, table, platesetter, pizza stone, etc. Thanks in advance!
