    Maverick ET-735 Issues

    I have battled with mine since the week they shipped.  The key for me was the phone I was using.  The Android simply does not work.  However, on my iphone 5 and iPad mini (v.1) it works fine.  I use it with all four probes plugged. this last week a new problem emerged, my 3rd port no longer...

    Very committed to one's Ribs

    As a fellow smoker and sausage stuffer, I can completely relate to this guy.   Fire in the apartment next store, he gets his wife and kids out and goes back in to get the ribs out of the smoker.   I suggest you make sure you add closed caption to get the full affect of his discourse.

    First Summer Sausage - Cook time

    Thanks guys, I appreciate the encouragement.  I shared it at work today and got good comments.  I really pride myself on making my old rubs and sausage seasoning (which I did not do for this first attempt).  But will for the next time.  It needs a bit more bite and pepper.

    First Summer Sausage - Cook time

    Thanks for the encouragement. The cleaning of the smoker has been a bit of a 'discussion' with the wife lately.  I do the grates each time and line the drip pans with aluminium.  My wife thinks I should clean the whole thing.  Today I came home to find she had pulled the pans, the racks and the...

    First Summer Sausage - Cook time

    Well the good news is that i did not render any fat out.  The stains  in the MES are from some jerky I did earlier.  The sausage has great looking, taste enhancing, fat globules.  I have had the fat fill the end of casings when doing smoked kielbasa.  Thanks for the added information.

    First Summer Sausage - Cook time

     > 1 1/2 SHOULD have been a little faster, Did you check your therms before starting?? Could have had a stall??  Admittedly, my MES is often under temp.  and that 170 for 4 hours could have really been 158 - 162.  But the main thing you shared is that I should keep the temp lower (don't go to...

    Maverick ET-735 Issues

    A month in and time for a new report. I am still having issues.  I have given up on using it with my Samsung S5, but I still use it with my Samsung Tab 3. Connectivity is hit or miss, no difference if I am 5 feet away or 25 feet away.  It comes and goes.  Close the app, reopen, wait to see if...

    Maverick ET-735 Issues

    Second weekend of smoking Report. Yes, the device still works with iPhone and my Samsun Tab 3. However, it is still a bit temperamental.  Granted it is Bluetooth and not WiFi. Temperature accuracy is a very nice plus.  I really trust the numbers it is giving me.  I did a prime rib and pulled...

    Smoker build in the mountains of Guatemala

    Tropics,  You are right, they can do some amazing things with barrels, angle irons and rebar.  If I was there to supervise, I am sure that I could do it from my head based on what I have seen over the years.  But in this case I am asking my brother in law to lead the workers to build it and I...

    Smoker build in the mountains of Guatemala

    A problem that needs help solving:   I have been an avid smoker for years.  I often post the pictures of my efforts on Facebook or send them to my family in Guatemala (as a result of my marriage to the lovely missus of 25 years).  In the past I have smoked many different items, vacuum sealed...

    Maverick ET-735 Issues

    I live in the desert of Phoenix Arizona.  It is actually a pretty good week for the air to be down.  We are in the low 80's.  10 days ago we set a new record of 95F.  Last time it broke (same issue), it was 115F.  So breaking down this week is kind of a blessing - get all the kinks out before...

    Maverick ET-735 Issues

    That would be my guess.  I went to Maverick's website and did not find any list of supported devices beyond them saying "• Monitor barbecue temperatures from your IPhone, Ipad, Android or Tablet."   The Samsung Galaxy S5 qualifies as Android.  I assume they will have software updates shortly...
