Holding temperature
Green Eggs & Ham
Posts: 3
What would be the cause of the egg not holding the correct temp? For instance, clean egg, new charcoal(Green Egg Brand)started the Boston Butt at 5 p.m., got the Egg to 220, it fluctuated between 210 and 230 until 10:00 p.m. where it was honed in at 220. Woke up at 5:00 checked the temp, Egg was 150, meat at 118 and probably ruined. Any suggestions....

Green Eggs & Ham
Your meat is probably OK if you mean 118 internal. You are most likely trying to maintain too low a temp. Try it at 250. You may need to wiggle the lump with a coat hanger through the lower vent.
