behind on my butt

Had some temp struggles. Could I bump up to 300 to expedite the cook?

Certainly.  I've had to rush one to get finished before...still turned out great.  You can also wrap in foil to speed things up, but the bark may soften up a little.

I would go with the raised temp (300-350*F) on the dome before foiling if that's an option-as SmokeyPitt notes-better bark.
