Hello all. I am a huge green egg fanatic, but picked up my first Jumbo Joe for a tailgate this past weekend. I was actually blown away by the cooking of the small little guy, however I do wish there was a thermometer so I am going to place my own on the lid. I have seen both ways done, opposite side of the vents or on the same side below the top vent. The theory behind same side as Vance is your run your Cole's on the opposite side in the air will be circulating over the cooking surface very similar to an indirect heat source.
What is everyone's personal opinion on this topic before I drill. Thank you all.
