HELP!
I bought the Joetisserie and have had EXTREME trouble in trying to control the pit temperature with the lid closed. Yesterday I cooked a 10 # turkey with a setpoint pit temp of 225. The temp climbed to almost 400 *. By that time I had shut the vents off and the temp continued to climb. I closed the vents around 275* to no avail. Finally at 400* I pulled the Joetisserie out closed the lid and the temp started dropping. After about an hour, i finally got the temp down to 225 -250, and cooked the turkey on the grate.

I am most disappointed with the Joetisserie as it appears that I can't cook with the lid closed?

I sure would appreciated some help.  I've tried it 3 times with the same results.

Is there anyway to contact the people who have had a good experience.  I sure do need their help.

Thanks for your help,
