    Cheap! Arduino wireless thermometer build

    Right.. I saw the tappacue.. and its 200 bux. I'm gonna do it for 50 or so for 2 probes, probably add 20 for another probe.. kind of a fun project for me.. and it would be able to be 3G pretty easily.

    first pork butt in mes 30 & amnps

    So its still sticky but the bone is gonna come out clean.. I'm used to having to finish in the oven, so that's what I'm gonna do. My oven thermometer goes up to 195 and it was at 190.. So in it goes at 225 for at least an hour. Then rest for an hour, 11am lunch time perfect!
