The last time I did an overnight I tried something different. I used the MM to start the charcoal(really full ring)but waited until the temps at the grate got to about 215-220 before shutting the vents down. The temp went up about 5 degrees and held there for about 9-10 hours then they started to drop.Needed to add more charcoal to finish the cook. My question is did I burn up more of the charcoal getting to the 220 faster than if I would have shut it down at 200 and waited for the temps to rise to my wanted grate temp gradually? The first time I did an overnight I did exactly what the directions said to do on the MM and never had to add any charcoal for the whole cook
