I've been starting it the same way the past couple of times the way I always have. I've lighted the chimney and poured on top of the charcoal the same way I always have. I'm thinking the lower temps were mostly due to the charcoal not taking a good fire early on, but the 300+ temps are what really puzzled me. Generally before yesterday's smoke, I've generally never gone over 255.
