    I recently bought a used PR60. I used it a couple of times cant seem to maintain tempature of 300. Stay right around 250 to 275. I have to cook a 175lb dressed pig this weekend. I was wondering if you could give me any tips on time and how to keep tempature up. Also how much charcoal. BY the way everything I have done on here is great. So many compliments. Built very well.

    Thank you Scott
