What's too hot for what you're doing in your opinion? I'd say 375,
mebbe 400. I've had mine over 400 for periods when I (mis)used oak
fireplace logs. I would dump heat when it got over 400, at least for
periods when I was paying attention. The butts came out pretty damn
well that cook too.

If you can keep that you're golden. Like someone else mentioned your
cooker has it's own sweet spot(s) it likes to be at.
