    Hello from New Mexico

    I suck at grilling. But I'm getting better. Just bought the kit to convert my Weber kettle to a smoker from SnS. I also bought the Maerick thermometer. I don't have a clue what I'm doing, but I'm looking forward to learning.

          Jemezgracie - you just need to open both vents all the way. having either vent, (or both), partially closed will reduce air flow and make the Kettle run cooler. The good news is that you have learned how to do low and slow now.

          Thanks RonB. I will try that next time. I still have much to understand. Will both vents full open cause the charcoal to burn even faster?

          Jemezgracie - yes, charcoal will burn faster, but the cook will somewhere around an hour, so you can close the vents when you pull the chix off and save the remaining coals.

          Welcome from Colorado, Jeff ... we were all newbies once ... and a few of us still are after 50 years or more 🙄.

                  Welcome from Nevada, and you have certainly come to the right place. This is about the best group of folks online anywhere, with tons of knowledge that are willing to share. As Mr. Bones always says, "looking forward to learnin along with, and from ya".
