Doing so would cause a traumatic loss of heat. Open the access and very gently poke the coals a little bit. Stirring implies more activity than is necessary. Just a few well placed pokes should improve air flow around the coals with agitating the ash too much.

I use wood for my heat, but then I have an off set. You can use small chunks of wood to increase your heat if you need to. I wouldnt do a lot of stiring.

I'm in no rush. In fact, this is working out awesome on timing. I was
hoping to get it to 190 and foil it for several hours. Dinner is around
6 if it's ready.
This time I am doing the real McCoy, a 13lb flat and point - and it's been just
over 9 ours and at 150. It moved up one degree just now - so maybe it's
moving on. What the longest a plateau might last?

Each piece of meat is different. I had two briskets this past weekend sit at 160 for over 3 hours and didn't budge a bit. Then things moved along nicely after that. Sit back, read the paper have coffee or beer is even better and RELAX!!! Just think about dinner!

When you get to know Larry you'll change your mind. The 2-way ramp will turn into a 1-way ramp into traffic. :lmao: |
You just wait till you and Lisa come down to visit the Gator, bud. 8-[
