THis is my first post, but I've been lurking for a while, and tried my first smoking with the Weber this past week. Both times I had temp issues. The first time I did a pork butt, that after about 7.5 to 8 hours I just couldn't keep the temp up so I had to finish in the oven. (It came out AWESOME) last Saturday I did some beef back ribs. It was slightly drizzly outside, but the temp was rock steady for about 3 hours at 240, then it started to drop, and I would adjust the bottom vents accordenly. After 6 hours I was having a hard time keeping the fire above 220 with all the bottom vents 100% open. The ribs were done at that point anyway so I pulled them, but still monitored the temp because this is all new to me, and the temp never did go above 210, and I don't know why. I started the grill using the MM.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Michael
