Hi, I joined last month, a guy from work told me about this forum. This is a awsome forum. Tons of info and cool people. After reading a lot of the posts, I have found a gold mine of info. I just got a Masterbuilt electric smoker. Several of the guys I work with have this unit and love it. I still need to get a meat thermometer. Any suggestions? I've looking at the Oregon Scientific model. I'm stoked and ready to smoke.

Thanks

Welcome to the forum. Glad to have you here. As far as thermometers go, you can't go wrong with the Maverick (ET 73?).

How to post Qview to Forum:
