Just smoked a lamb leg last night before now after
Cooked for about 5.5 hrs at 220 last half hr up at 260 for some crispies. Took it off when IT reached 165.
Marinade yogurt, rose water, saffron, and other Indian type spices. It was delicious
Aleforge: I had same issues, purchased a tip top temp from amazon and if I can hold back my natural inclination to fiddle with things it works great. Check it out on YouTube.
Also check for air leaks around your cooker. I have some that I am going to plug up with either nomex and/or hi temp...
What temp and how long? I can get rabbit quite cheaply here in NYC lately. Wanted to try but didn't want to waste $ if I failed. With a little guidance I just might give it a shot!
I bought the tip top temp regulator and it works great! Better than I thought it would, in fact.

Oh man! I'm traveling will be lucky to grill burgers or dogs! But it's my mom's 90th bday party, so I guess I'm obligated. I will turn down all your invites 128540
But one thing did catch my eye
Phatbac, you said you will wait a couple of hours after lighting your smoker. Is that the secret...
I'm having the opposite problem in my Akorn. I am using frontier lump and it gets too hot.
I did notice that after 4 hours it hums along at 230 nice and steady.
Am I using too much fuel, too many chunks.
My practice is to break up a starter cube into 3 pieces and spread them around into...
