So I've had my KJ for a week now and did a butt last weekend, bout 7.5-8 pounds, no water pan and she held her temp like a stove, I maybe had to adjust it 2 or 3 times in 12 hours and it never dropped below 210 or above 250. Well I fired up the KJ last night for 8.5-9 pounder did my normal routine let it come to temp and level out for 45 minutes to an hour and she was fine. It seems like I've had to adjust every hour! I used just a simple Weber aluminum pan with some apple juice. It hit 160 then all of sudden dropped to 154 at around 7 this mornin and wouldn't budge so now it's in the oven. Am I doing something wrong here? I'm still new to the kamado world but geez, she made me scratch my head. Any help would be great for future reference. Also is there anything special I need to do to finish in the oven, right now it's sitting on a pan with some apple juice in it.
