After successfully smoking chicken twice in my new WSM I thought I was ready for a pork butt using the Minion Method. Not! The temp got out of control after about 2 hours - with all the bottom vents closed. When I cracked the lid to let the heat escape, a couple pieces of the smoke wood ignited into flame.
I deviated from the Minion Method by using about 30 pieces of lit Kingsford charcoal instead of 20 (on a warm day), and I used a sand pan instead of water.
Was the additional charcoal enough to get the temp over 300* at the lid?
