    Help w/ AMNTS cold smokin in a Pit Boss pellet "grill"

    I was under the impression that a cleaner smoke (TBS) is produced at a higher temperature, and thick white smoke at a lower tempteraure. Thus, I thought it best to have something that burns hot to produce a clean smoke and then cools the smoke before letting it hit the food. That's why I was...

    Help w/ AMNTS cold smokin in a Pit Boss pellet "grill"

    Folks, I have one of the PB 700-series models. I tried cold-smoking cheese this weekend with my 12" AMNTS, and I was disappointed with the thick, white smoke it produced and the bitter, acrid, chemical taste of the cheese after smoking. I have vacuum sealed the cheese and plan to let it mellow...

    Please help, can't get Inkbird ibt-6xs to connect to BBQ Go app.

    @donpachuco The unit really is great, I have no problems whatsoever with it, except for my initial connection to the BBQ Go app. It has largely replaced my ThermoPro TP-08S as my go-to. I love the Inkbird. @duke_meister I think you misunderstand the issue. The unit's instructions clearly...

    Please help, can't get Inkbird ibt-6xs to connect to BBQ Go app.

    Well, I finally downloaded another app called easyBBQ. It's clearly a very slightly modified version of the same app that is BBQ Go. Which is the chicken and which is the egg? Are they both eggs of some other chicken? Anyway, the easyBBQ ap connected right away. And BBQ Go would also connect...

    Today's cook: jerk chicken

    Update upon eating leftovers: I only used one Habenero per whole 5.5 lb chicken. This amount provided a nice, well-balanced heat, but flavor didn't penetrate the breast well. Still, bites of the breast meat can be mopped against the skin or plate to pick up the marinade and get plenty of...

    Please help, can't get Inkbird ibt-6xs to connect to BBQ Go app.

    Wow, I just noticed that the BBQ go app was last updated November 11, 2018. I sure hope they are planning to maintain it, or replace it with something better!

    Please help, can't get Inkbird ibt-6xs to connect to BBQ Go app.

    @TNJAKE Ah, thank you! I didn't see that plus sign. Now, I just need to meet someone named Lisa so that I can cook her a steak. This will make the unit much more useful. I got this unit to try and "decode" my pellet cooker. I want to know where the hot and cold spots are, and what the temp...

    Please help, can't get Inkbird ibt-6xs to connect to BBQ Go app.

    Okay, I got it to work! Here is how I did it: I downloaded a different app for my phone, called EasyBBQ. This app appears to have the same interface as BBQ Go. In fact, there are a ton of BBQ thermometer apps on the Google Play Store that appear to basically be clones of one another, but they...

    Please help, can't get Inkbird ibt-6xs to connect to BBQ Go app.

    Well, @smokerjim, I do have wireless speakers throughout the house that have bluetooth active all the time. I could unplug them all, but even if I do that, my phone (at least) can still detect active Bluetooth devices from my neighbors. If I step outside, then my phone detects active bluetooth...

    Please help, can't get Inkbird ibt-6xs to connect to BBQ Go app.

    Another thing, if I go into my Bluetooth settings and select "iBBQ" from there, a radio signal icon flashes on the ibt-6xs that looks kinda' like {(.)} , but of course, the phone also asks for a PIN. If I toggle back to the BBQ Go app from here, the icon on the ibt-6xs goes away and I cannot...

    Please help, can't get Inkbird ibt-6xs to connect to BBQ Go app.

    My phone is running android 10. On Android 10, the phone is automatically "discoverable" as soon as the Bluetooth settings screen is opened - there is no manual toggle to make it discoverable. Also, my phone detects the BBQ thermometer, but of course it asks for a PIN if I try to connect from...

    Please help, can't get Inkbird ibt-6xs to connect to BBQ Go app.

    Okay, I tried pressing the start button on the app AND the button on the front of the thermometer unit, but it made no difference - the attempt to connect still timed out after 60 seconds. I tried a few times

    Please help, can't get Inkbird ibt-6xs to connect to BBQ Go app.

    hello, I am having problems with my new @Inkbirdbbq ibt-6xs thermometer. I can't make a connection to it using the BBQ Go app. I downloaded the app, set permissions to allow location, turned on phone's Bluetooth, turned on the ibt-6xs, open the BBQ Go app, hit the start button, but the app is...

    Today's cook: jerk chicken

    today I'll be making three whole chickens on the Pit Boss pellet cooker. They were spatchcocked and slathered with marinade last night. Skin was slit on a few places so I could get marinade under the skin. The jerk marinade consists of Green onions (scallions) Shallots Fresh garlic Fresh...

    Help me with my first pork butt?

    @noboundaries and others: please forgive my lack of follow-up! It was received well by my guests, one of whom is an Alabamian, and something of a BBQ connesuer. While not a BBQer himself, his wife tells me that she is dragged to a variety of BBQ spots when visiting his folks back home, because...

    Help me with my first pork butt?

    Thanks, @jasinil2006, @noboundaries , I figure I will check the temp with a sterile probe a couple hours before guests arrive. If it looks like it's dropped too far, I will place in oven. When I think about it, meat was sealed and placed in cooler at over 200F, so should be absolutely sterile...
