    Utility Cart Holding Cabinet Conversion - Should work well eh?

    How the heck do you run this PID....Any simpler instruction would be appreciated!!!

    I have up on the dual probe based on additional cost and no real NEED for it. I already have a meat probe which will can be fed down the chimney. The only thing I lost was ability for cabinet temp to automatically adjust based on internal temp. To be honest the more I though about it I realized...

    Not sure what u mean by meat probe? I have a 4" thermocouple hooked up to read smoker temp so the PID can properly enable/disable the burner but there is no meat probe. Curious what u mean? Can I get another probe and hook it up?

    Utility Cart Holding Cabinet Conversion - Should work well eh?

    No drain hole. So I need to get 2 nice 1/2 size cookie sheets. The plan is to set them on separate shelves and stager them so the smoke can weave through them and I have 100% coverage for drips. Right now for this first smoke I only have one salmon going and it fit on the 3 1/2 size grill racks...
