I did 80 chicken quarters on my Lang 60 yesterday. I had filled the coal basket with Kingsford Competition charcoal, torched it up with my weed weed burner, and let it settle it to a bed of hot coals. When I got up to 300 I put on the meat. This dropped the temp to 150 for a long time so I threw on a load of unlit charcoal then some small wood. After a couple hours I opened to check temps and found everything black with soot, especially the meat on the top rack. All vents were wide open since I was trying to hit 300 degrees. What went wrong?
