Airflow is the likely culprit.

Make sure the meat is not blocking the airflow with an overloaded shelf or being up against the exhaust.

Bandera needs to breathe

Also, check that the meat is not real close to the temp monitor.
I assume you are using something other than the door thermometer??
I also assume you have a couple of inches under your fuel grate for incoming air??

Good Luck
