So this past Saturday I decided to do 2 racks of St. Louis ribs and 5 links of hot sausage on the bottom rack of my WSM and on the top rack about 15 wings. I kept them all on for about 5.5 - 6 Hours at about 230deg. This is the first time I used water in the bowl (just because I wanted to try it) While I really enjoyed what came off I couldn't help but to think that the food was kind of dry. So this leads me to few questions.
1) Is it a bad idea to put an assortment of food like I did all at once?
2) I used the minion method and with all the vents wide open I couldn't get the my igrill temp over like 235deg. Could this be because I had water in the bowl? It was about 45deg out so I was really surprised as to why I couldn't get the temp past 235deg. Not at ANY point during the cook. I'm still a newb (5th cook).
I appreciate your views.
