Congrats on the CnT, and having a wife that likes to spoil you. It’s a pretty easy tool to use.
You’ll wanna run the dampers wide open. Cook the corn/potatoes indirect by placing your coals in the center of the charcoal grate. This will allow you to still cook(direct) other items in the center. Bigger ears of corn will keep the lid from setting all the way on the bowl, which will increase the heat
