I seem to be having the same issue weather I use the minion method or a maze basket...
When I add my 6 or 7 lit coals, everything burns through very quickly and I have a full fire on my hands. My temps get very hot very quick and then die just as quickly. I'm not getting the "slow, extended burn" that I hear others talk about. This keeps me paying alot of attention to my fire at all times during my cook and adding additional coals multiple times.
I've used and had the same results with: Kingsford Blue and several different brands of lump. I've has the same results when I use wood chunk and when I don't.
Anyone had this same issue and can suggest additional things to try and tame my fire? It's not a huge deal except it means I'm really concentrating alot on my fire and am unable to leave it for more than 20 minutes at a time.
Thanks.
