feel for controlling the temp.

This is the part I am most curious about. Cook a shite ton and grill but have yet to try cooking something for such a long time at a specific heat.

You'll get the hang of it. Just takes some time and getting to know your smoker. Mostly just controlling air flow in my opinion.

once you get the pit warm I would close the top cent to about .25" and strictly use the firebox vent to adjust oxygen flow. Pork butt is very forgiving though, even if the temp spikes for a while it is hard to mess up.
