I did an awesome smoke this weekend (not many pics so I guess it wasn't that awesome!).
I tried doing the clay pot base mod and for the most part I was happy with it.
However I noticed something strange.
Most of the time the WSM therm and my ET-73 were dead on.
When I started losing temp on both and we adjusted the vents to allow more air, the grate level temp would skyrocket (300°+) which took a long time to even out.
What was strange was the lid therm (factory) stayed lower than 200°.
Once things were back to normal, both therms would be the same again.
I'm going to run my 2 WSMs side by side and do some testing with water pan vs. the clay pot and see if I get the same thing.
Anyone else noticed this?
