My first burn was pretty hot I think because I started with too much charcoal. Using the minion method how many coals should I start with? I used about 2/3 of a chimney full and had trouble keeping the temp under 250.
if you want to stay below 250 8-10 briquettes, if you want t go hot 275+ you already have the answer
