My Egg Seems to Take A While to Get Hot

I am kind-a new. It takes about 10 minutes to get a small flame in the Egg when I use the electric starter. After I get a flame, it takes at least 25 or 30 minutes to get the temp up to 350 degrees. If I am making steaks or burgers, I like to sear them first then drop the temp to cook. Are the times I mentioned normal or do you think I am doing something wrong?

leave the lid open longer or open the vents all the way to get it hot quickerSt. Louis Barbeque Society certified competition judge
