    I need some help keeping temp below 300. I'm not sure if it's the lump or cause I cook with fat side down.

    This is great and hilarious to me. I'm new to this forum (and to my awesome LBGE). I love all the post that I have seen. On topic or off. My wife had been laughing at me with all the time I'm spending on here. By the way, looking for something new to cook on my egg this weekend. Maybe I'll try some wings. I love wings, but I usually fry them. Ready to give the egg a chance. 
    Welcome to the $hit show brother. Give your wings overnight uncovered to crisp up in the fridge.  Cook them raised direct at 400 degrees.

    (Unless you are @nolaegghead doing some early evening trolling with a new ulterego account. Then just fry up some old school @sgh anus and let's get Friday started)
    No trolll here. By raised direct do you mean use a special grate that allows me to raise the cooking level?  What do you suggest that I buy. 
    Yes.  Recommend Woo from ceramic grill store (CGS).  Call Tom ( @tjv ) he will walk you through what you need.

    In the meantime you can use fire bricks.  You want to raise your grid to be level with the felt on your grill.

    I would rather light a candle than curse your darkness.

    It is your vent setting.  You need a smokeware cap.  The DFTW is not capable of holding temps below 300.

    What I respect about Ole Miss is it cheated and everybody knew it. What I don't respect about Ole Miss is it cheated and couldn't make an SEC championship game. At least Vanderbilt plays school well.

     GOOD LORD MISSISSIPPI. What I respect about Ole Miss is it cheated and everybody knew it. What I don't respect about Ole Miss is it cheated and couldn't make an SEC championship game. At least Vanderbilt plays school well.

    The Rebels'—perhaps that was our first clue; they made a mascot out of traitorous clowns whose greatest talent was exploiting slave labor—their problems got worse Thursday night when their coach resigned amid hooker allegations.

    Agree with most of the comments.  When you are surrounded by good people, you value their opinion in a lot of off topic areas as well.

    It could be worse. Urban could be coaching at Louisville, where there are no known rules for morality, of any sort.

    That is your problem.  If you fan the flames you will never keep temp below 300.  Just let the egg do its thing.

    We all love our professional Football - in the NorthEast it's the NFL, the SouthEast (which I guess now includes parts of Texas) it's the SEC, and etc....   =)

    SEC East is UGA'S to win, as they are loaded, and should challenge for a National Championship.
    However, as every year they have been loaded, except for HW, many years ago,  they are typically fortunate if they win the East.
    So many great players to go try and get to 8-4.
    At UK, we never have anything, and occasionally beat UGA. 
    That is what is cute.
    Go UK. 6-6. Maybe.

    Many of us here think of this forum as an extended family. Granted that also means a few crazy uncles, but family just the same.  That also means there is apt to be a wealth of knowledge on a wide range of subjects, including life experiences to draw upon. When I post something OT I select the Off Topic forum to begin with. Then I further label my subject by starting with OT:  and then ending with :OT. I feel the reader has been warned and need not read the thread if they are like you who gets riled seeing something off topic. ;)

    With a 52-12-2 record...I'll take my chances. 
    And yes, UGA is a notoriously underachieving squad. Hopefully that changes with the new coaching regime but any time I go into a season optimistic........
