I lit a fire in it last night, finally.
Looking cute next to the weber kettle and small WSM

Ahh smoke. I found it came up to 320 or so quickly, then slowly crept up to 400 (wasn't much I could do to keep it lower, until I closed everthing right down except a crack, which brought it down to 300).

Sacrificial wings. They were great, really intense smokey flavour. Like cooking directly over coals but in an oven.

Dinner - rib eye steak, wings, wedges and some left over mac and cheese from the kids dinner.
