yes i use a propane gas grill. to find the temp- use an oven
thermometer and adjust nob until steady temp is reached, then mark the
spot with a sharpie marker. if you are using charcoal- you will have
to experiment. i suggest using the dutch oven with nothing inside but
a thermometer, and trying a different number of charcoal brickettes,
subtracting or adding as necessary.
