I'm using a Brinkman, with plain Kingford. For about a year, I added a thermometer. I think my temp is a little low, usually it's < 200. Would I get better(higher) heat if I used lump charcoal? I did a turkey for the famiily Thankgiving, it was devoured in short order(should'a got a bigger one). And did my first brisket, yesterday. I think it could have been better if the heat was a little hotter. It didn't turn out bad, just not as good as I expected.
