That looks great, I may have to add something like this to the to do list. Did ya have to reload at any point during the 4 hours?

No, I used a ring of fire, and had a nearly complete circle of briquettes, 2x2, exactly one chimney full. I started with 12 lit briquettes, if you think of the kettle as a clock, I started at 12 and finished around 5. It started nice outside, but became quite windy about halfway through when some dark clouds rolled in outta nowhere, and I burned more fuel than normal. Had a spurt where it climbed above 250 and took awhile to come back down. I've done 3-4 chicken cooks in better weather that used less fuel. This was first time I've had to choke the top vent some as well, normally I leave it open.
I could see fall and winter weather being a challenge. Gotta up my game.
