Do you arrange your coals in a specific manner or just like em up in the basket?

Hey all,

Like the title says I’m having a party with 12-15 people soon and will be preparing all the meat on my bronco. Trying to figure out timing of things with respect to how much space I’ll have to work with.

Currently thinking:
-Smoke a pork butt overnight and get it in a cooler in the morning
-Cream cheese and jalapeño poppers 2 hours before party starts at 2:30 so they’re ready
-Either chicken quarters or party ribs to finish since they’ll cook fairly quick

Last part is what I’m stuck on since I don’t really have time to do 2 batches. I’m curious what others think and have been able to cook on their bronco.
