I use a fire-starter cube and chimney to get the charcoal burning hot.

Weber Fire Starter Cubes

Weber Chimney

And I use this Polder digital thermometer to check the internal temperature of the meat while grilling/smoking.

Cheap, under $20. Works great though, at least for what I'm doing.

If it didn't come with the heat deflector, you'll want one of those for sure. One of the legs on mine broke, so I need a new one... not sure if I'm going to go ceramic or cast iron.

Starter cubes and Chimney is excess work IMHO. Torch the lump in 2-3 spots with MAPP and you're rolling in minutes.
