Hi guys,
Been cooking on my Weber a while, but am now getting more into it. I wanted to double check with you experts about when to start your cook.
I think I have been going about it wrong. For example yesterday, I fired up my SSP, filled the baskets with coal, and when they got good and ready, I threw on a couple of chunks of pecan, thenput the country ribs on indirect and put the lid on. The temp soared to over 500 right off the bat, so I had to more or less shut the vents top and bottom until it cooled down to 300 or so, which took at least 10-15 minutes, meaning I was cooking way too hot for a little while.
Am I worrying too much about it, or should I get my temp right before putting the meat on?
