BBQ Smokey Joe

Spatchcock chicken on the top whilst the fat roasted veg underneath. First real cook! Such a good piece of kit.

Still need more practice at getting the temp right I think

Loaded it up with plenty lumpwood tonight and got it to 260C but then it just stayed there - that was with bottom vent fully open and the daisywheel in place but with all the holes fully open

Couldn't seem to get it to go any hotter

Anyway managed to grill some lamb chops which were lovely - all vents now closed so assume I will have some lump left I can reuse

Have you checked your thermometer? You can unscrew it and test it by dipping in a pan of boiling water which should be 100⁰c. Or buy a different one to calibrate? I would recommend Inkbird.
