Question for the members - how are ATC systems for "high" temperature cooks? I'm referring to 325-350. I have a WSM 18.5 and have found that when cooking turkey or chicken I need to prop the door open to get the temps in that range. It tends to overshoot, I close the door, drops back too far, etc. So far I haven't found the right balancing act on the BBQ tongs to get the desired temp. Since I'm toying with the idea of getting an ATC I'm wondering if it'd solve this problem. The concern would be that the fan wouldn't be able to provide enough air to run at that temp and I'd still have to prop the door open even with an ATC.
