    Overnight Brisket/Smokin' Pecan Pellets

    ...smoke any meat UNWRAPPED for 2 to 4 hours, then remove from grill, DOUBLE WRAP in ALUMINUM FOIL TIGHTLY, place back into grill insert thermometer probe 1/2 through the thickest part, turn grill temperature setting up to 225°F degrees and close the lid. Then wait for the meat temperature to...

    Thermometer - Which is best?

    What's the best wireless meat thermometer you've used for low-and-slow cooks? My current probes are all over the place with temps—nothing reliable inside the smoker. I've heard Meater gets a ton of love for accuracy and app alerts, but curious about your real-world experiences (pros/cons...

    A frustrating smoke so far today.

    ...on a new Traeger today. A brisket flat and I through some sacrificial corn on the cob and half an apple in there to keep the moisture up. Thermometer issues are annoying, and now it is pouring down rain. Following some advice that I read on this forum, I purchased a Thermoworks RFX just now...

    Looking for info

    Welcome from ND I would suggest getting a digital thermometer' hang in center of smoker and set your temp on the medium setting and let it go for about 45-60 mins to see what type of temps you are getting and go from there. Yes you should be able to make some delicious food in that unit.

    where did I go wrong

    ...to the party. I cook and smoke meat on a gas grill all the time. Vents on a gasser really mess with controlling temps versus the hood thermometer and what the meat actually feels at the grate level. I monitor the actual temps with Thermo Works grate level and meat probes. Here is how I...

    Thermometer for Weber Kettle Grill

    Those are a great idea, but do you want the thermometer in the lid or on the side of the kettle about a 1/2" above the grate. That would give you a more accurate temp reading. Chris

    Jalapeño Cheddar Brats

    ...I couldn't do souz vide, I threw them in an ice bath for 15 mins then put them back on the smoker until they hit 165°. The pic with the thermometer is what they looked like when I pulled them to do an ice bath, Total cook time was 4 hrs 50 mins. Less wrinkled this time but still not...

    What Went Wrong? Dino Ribs Kicked My Butt!

    I would start by checking the calibration of the probe in some boiling water. Use another thermometer to verify rhe probe is reading correct....if it is, I would subscribe to the theory that the probe was positioned in a fat seam and unable to get a good reading.

    A frustrating smoke so far today.

    Yikes and I would argue the flat of the brisket is the hardest meat to get right on a smoker. Hopefully the beer was cold!!

    Easiest to clean...

    I'm spoiled I guess . The SmokeFire reports cooking temps without a probe hooked up . Sends an email alert even if I don't have the app open . If I do a long cook , I do hook up my Signals . @mowin which brings up a thought , your trouble could be a bad thermocouple not reading the temp...

    ...shear pin on a regular basis. Why PB didn't replace the entire unit is beyond me. Too late now with the change of ownership. Uh, no one mentioned the need for a side thermometer to monitor the pit temps. I use a couple of Thermoworks units so it alerts me if temps go over or under the set...

    Flame Boss 400 w/Kamado Joe is a game changer

    Not sure I have any good advice since this is my first run. I lit the KJ and got it up to 200F (on the KJ dome thermometer) then fired up the Flame Boss. It immediately read 270F which had me questioning the KJ thermometer, but it turns out the grate temp and the dome temp hadn't settled in. I...

    Botched snack sticks, need guidance

    Did you actually verify your PID pit temps with a digital thermometer? PID controller may need some calibrating, it may have been running hotter than anticipated. They look good though, I would put a few of them away.😋

    Recommendation on a WiFi Refer/freezer thermometer with app

    I been using the Govee wireless meat thermometer but like the Inkbird I have trouble getting notifications if the app is not called up on screen. If I use another app and dont go back to Govee or Inkbird I dont get notifications. Probably be the same with this. I was a click away from...

    Steak Night by Junior Pitmaster.

    ...it's sirloin. The fat on a ribeye is better closer to medium. And it's often a little undercooked if you order medium, which makes it about right. To end my mini rant, if you can't cook a steak without a thermometer, stick to hotdogs. Sheesh. (Not meant towards you, Quig, just in general)

    ...responses. I bought mine from a friend. I think it is the 28 inch. Two controls, four burners. It took a little cleaning and now I need to get some avocado oil to get it cured. I fired it up and checked the temp with an infrared thermometer. It maxed out at about 460 degrees. Is this about right?
