Hi,
I tried an indirect heat roast chicken last night.
Temp was ok (190°c) for about 45 mins but then started to drop so I opened up and added another few briquettes.
But of course, they take a long time to reach temp so for the next hour or so temp was between 120-140. Eventually getting up to 150.
Is it best to light the briquttes first in the chimney before adding for a heat top up or breaking them down a bit so they fire up quicker? Was using the BigK brand.
Any other advice on this topic appreciated.
Thanks M
