Advice Needed - Pro Q Frontier Temperature Issues

[paulfire]

I'm sorry to have to tell you but the position of the BBQ plus the weather are the two main factors affecting you, I had the same trouble when it was breezy, couldn't keep temp up above 220*, had to carefully drag a hot Excel into a different position. What's generally the ideal location for you, is not the right location for the BBQ , all the time. If you can, try a different position, but the solution may be, as Keith says some air control system. Or if you are inventive (tight) like me, you can chance third degree burns and reposition a fully loaded and hot BBQ. Yes I know the thing comes apart and yes the safety issues, and I don't advise anyone to attempt it, but we can't all be blessed that the first position tried is a 100% success.
Besides I've been burned before, and my fekkity fekk dance is perfection.

If there is no there is no other option with regard to position, I wonder if some sort of wind break might help.

It's the lack of air, or the wrong air plus ambient temp that seem to be the problem.

Cheers for the suggestions guys, I actually moved it mid cook last time and the temp did increase, but it was still topping out at 210 all vents open.

I think if I am looking to do cold/cool weather cooks I am going to need to mod the basket, get some sort of insulation (wielding blanket?), wind break, and only use one stacker
