First Turkey Problems

I smoked my first turkey today but ran into a problem with my dome themometer. I built the fire and got it up to temperature. Then put in the wood chips, place the plate setter in legs up and placed the grill on top of them. I placed the turkey on the grill in a v rack and drip pan. My dome themometer would not get ablve 200 degrees so I put my Taylor on the grid and used it to do the cook at 350. The turkey came out good and when I closed the lid my dome themometer went to 400 right away. My question is should I leave the grid out and set the pan and v rack down in the plate setter to eliminate the themometer problem or is there another way. Thanks for your input. AZ
