Greetings Learned Forum:
After reading many posts and recipes from this site, the conventional wisdom seems to be "always leave the top vent fully open." In fact, I have not found a single recommendation to the contrary.
But by adding an ATC into the equation, does this change things? Are there instances where partially closing the top vent is helpful? Or is fiddling with the top vent the "third rail" of good BBQ? Any thoughts and experiences are greatly sppreciated. Thank you.
