Not atypical. The manufacturer’s thermometer in my WSM runs about 15 degrees hotter than the upper grate.

So my Mak 1 Star lost its innocence today. 2 racks of baby backs, Oak Ridge BBQ Dominator Rib Rub and sauced with Lillies Carolina and Lillies Smoky BBQ Sauce 1 each. Not the best photographer as you can see but man o man did these come out great. My son said he liked the ones I always made before and said he'd give those a B. These he said were approaching A+

Perhaps we can talk MAK Grills into a Mini MAK Brethren group buy when the time comes. No harm in trying! Would love to see you join the MAK family :)

When doing a brisket on the Mak 1 Star without Flamezone, what do
you think; upper grate or lower grate? By the way, my Flamezone comes in Monday!

I would still cook it on the upper grate, I like to put a baking sheet pan on the bottom grate to catch the grease/drippings, makes cleanup easier and I rarely have to clean out the grease drawer.

If only doing 1, I always use the upper grate. 2, and I use both grates. Nothing at all wrong with the main grate as I have used it many times for low n slow cooks. But given the option, I will always have the protein as far away from the radiant heat of the drip pan for low n slow cooks as it’s a bit more gentle a heat. Plus, IMO the smoke lingers a bit longer at the top of the cooking chamber before exiting. Just my opinions :) Not to mention the ease of using a drip pan when cooking on the upper grate.

Picked up 2.5 pounds of steelhead at Costco this week.
Just finished dry brining and off to the fridge to dry overnight. On the MAK in the morning.

I’m trying something new so I’m not sure how it will turn out.
I made a brine of 1.75 cup of Diamond Crystal kosher salt and 1.75 cup of dark brown sugar. Dredged the fish in the brine, put fish in a 13 x 9 pan, and covered with the remaining brine. Refrigerated for 35 minutes. Then rinsed well, patted dry, and put on the rack. I’ll put a rub on it in the morning that will consist mainly of fresh ground black pepper and probably a bit of garlic powder and maybe a finely ground bay leaf or two. I may also do some of the fish with chipotle powder. Maybe one with Oakridge HDD. If the dry brine worked, I’ll use it in the future and add some flavoring to the salt and sugar.
