i find it really easy to control temp with the WSM. for long smokes, i use the minion method. i've done 8-12 hour smokes using the method, where all i had to do was adjust my bottom vents a couple of times. works great.

This is what I did. For first time using it, it was pretty easy to keep between 200-250. My only problem like I said was getting it up to temp at the first. It was very windy here yesterday so that had some effect on it as well.

I'd suggest getting one if you can....found mine on craiglist for $170...had only been used a few times.
