So today and even in the past, I've smoked my trying to use the minion method on brisket or any large piece of meat that requires long and slow cook times. My smoker does not seem to be happy unless its around 280, anything lower and it smokes like a locomotive. I have tried lighting more briquettes thinking not enough fuel to start and running into tempature going to high and cant bring it down without having that bad smoke smell. Tried less and to keep tempature from going so high and get the bad smoke again. Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.
