I dropped a probe through the vent on my weber lid on the UDS yesterday after I took my meat off and you are dead on right. I was running at 235 - 240 on the pit thermometers and the digital probe said it was more like 300 in the center. I didn't notice it until I had finished cooking and just dropped my meat probe through the daisy wheel for the heck of it. I'll be backing off my valves a little quicker from now on.
