Seethewave, Wow! You were busy! It is often difficult to get the temp down from 450 to 225 or so. The reason is that the ceramic heats up fairly quickly and then retains that heat. The answer is not to put yourself in that position to begin with. Sneak up on your temps and then damp it down.I noticed you did a pork loin. That's one of my favorites. I usually do it at about 275 for as long as it takes to get to 140. Then I jack up the temp and sear the outside. Oh yeah, use lots of smoke.Anyway, have fun with your next cooks.Paul
