Just got my Jambo today. Fired it up no problem and seasoned it but found it very difficult to keep a stable temp. Using logs only. Was trying to maintain 310. Any advice??
This. Nothing else to add...stick burners don't run stable temps. they run in a temp range of target temp +/- 25*.
if you want to average 275* temps will bounce between 250 and 300*. Hits 250*, add a split, it climbs to 300* and slowly falls back to 250*, add a split etc.. etc..etc...
If your Temp swings are more than that - add smaller wood more often. Most run a bed of burning charcoal to help maintain temps. I will add a chimney of burning charcoal mid cook if needed.
