I'm trying to follow the directions for the BRITU, but am having trouble getting the temps up. I followed the directions regarding lighting the charcoal. I put the ribs on at 250* and the temps dropped and are still at ~170 at the lid/150 at the grate an hour later. I stirred the coals and have 2 of the bottom vents wide open, but the temps haven't budged. I've always seemed to have a problem with temps reunning a bit low, but this time, its really stuck. Any thoughts/help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
well, I guess I wasn't patient enough or when I reopened the lid to add the probe for the grate temp, and checked back after making the post, its now running at 220* at the lid. What happened?
