    Smokin It Model 1 or 2 - Georgia

    Bbq guru overkill for mini?

    So just get a maverick then and save myself around 120 for something else (aka, charcoal, etc). Unless there is something better than a maverick. I am not putting a outside temp gauge on there since i am going the probe route.

    Bbq guru overkill for mini?

    Thanks for thr reply. I heard the mini is pretty rock solid so maybe i will just get the maverick to start and then add the guru later. For some reason i was thinking the guru monitored the temps inside and the meat temp as well so i would only need the guru.

    Bbq guru overkill for mini?

    Going to built myself a mini very soon. Wondering if the guru or something similar is overkill for the mini? I am thinking yes but maybe the maverick is a better choice. I would rather just buy one.
