Thank you! I think I’m going to try B&B charcoal next. I feel like the Kingsford burns up way faster than it should. I still only used ~1/2 a bag for ~13hrs of run time.

Little update, I did another pork butt cook that was ~14.5hrs excluding shutdown time. I loaded it with probably ~12-14lbs of B&B briquettes and still had around 40-50% left whereas the same cook with old Kingsford blue bag I had ~25-30% left.
My temps did start to climb on the grate according to my Fireboard but the dome temp gauge stayed pretty consistent so I don't know which to trust. The Firebord pit probe was telling me ~300-320f when the winds really picked up whereas the dome temp in the Weber was telling me 250-260f. When the winds died down the two temps came back within 5f of each other. The flavor of B&B is pretty good and after seeing the burn time/low ash I will likely be sticking to their briquettes for quite some time. I just picked up 3 bags as a local hardware store had them cheaper than Kingsford blue bag.

I go off of my Fireboard instead of the dome gauge & I usually run around 275 or so with the bottom damper set to the smoke setting & top about 1/4". I also recently switched to B&B Post Oak lump & love it.

I do the same with briquettes, hasn't given me an issue yet. Once I burn through these 3 bags of B&B briquettes I'll try some jealous devil or similar lump but after trying these briquettes it'll be tough to leave em haha.

Only thing I don't like about briquettes vs lump is all the ash to clean out. I can go months with lump before I have to clean out the minimal ash.

I certainly agree to that. That is certainly one area where the Summit excels is in ash cleanup with the one touch system.

Late to the party, but this is what I would have recommended. I absolutely love my WSK.
