Do you have a lot of smoke and then no smoke?
Because it could help if you’re spacing your wood out around where you started your fire so it catches at different times.
I have it spread out pretty good and mixed in throughout the coals. After I get my fire rolling, I throw a couple of chunks on top and get the thick dirty smoke. It settles out after about 20 minutes and turns to a thin blue smoke. Problem is it dies off after a couple of hours. If I open up the lid too long for any reason and increase the airflow supplied it will start producing TBS again. It is the strangest thing.

You probably just can't see it but it's there. Are you noticing a taste difference with the meat? If not, who cares.

I never want a "rolling" fire, or any fire for that matter.
I light a couple chunks of coal, then let it come to temp, not get real hot then cool down.
