This strategy provides even, indirect heat throughout your grill. It's used for short - medium indirect cooking. The advantage is that there is no need to rotate the food because even heat is created on each side of your meat.
Place a small pile of charcoal at each end of the barrel. Light each pile and open the bottom dampers at each end of the cooker. When the desired temperature is reached, close all of the dampers to 1/4 inch. As soon as the cooker temp levels out place the food in the middle of the grate between the piles of charcoal. Regulate the temp of the grill during the cooking process by adjusting the dampers, open for a hotter fire and close for a cooler fire.
