Well you could stay awake and monitor the temps. You could use a remote temp sensor with alarm, ie. Maverick 73 or 732 so that you could sleep between coal loading OR, you can do what I do and cook HH in 4-5 hrs. Sleep like a baby all night and start early in the am. All will work.

Let us know how she turns out.

thanks Mk, i have a mav, and i think it will roll fine without messing with it so i can get a little sleep, the staying awake and monitoring temps would lead too fine Bourbon drinking which might not be a bad idea.. maybe woodford reserve..LOL thanks much for the replie.. glenn in SC
 
I used to do low and slow all the time in my kettle with a Maverick. Works fine. I still do it all the time but with a bbq guru (like my sleep).

If I were in your shoes, I would probably do what mk evenson suggested with the high heat...if for no other reason than because you will be using a kettle knockoff. There is no telling how that thing will perform. It will probably be fine, but if a cheap grill is going to frustrating me, I'd rather it frustrate me when I'm not supposed to be sleeping.
