I was having trouble keeping my A-MAZE-N pellet burner lit, so I did the mailbox mod. After doing the mod, I still was having trouble keeping it lit and never saw the thin blue smoke coming from the back opening of the smoker. I had several ideas as to what the issue is, but what it ultimately...
My father-in-law is coming to visit this weekend and he's bringing a good bit of deer sausage links with him. I was going to make a fatty this weekend with cheese and tater tots in it, but now I'm thinking I should put a deer sausage link in it. Two questions...
What would go well with deer...
I'm using a few libraries that other have written, but the meat of the code is mine. I thought about starting with the Heatermeter code, but it uses an Arduino. I wanted this to be all done on the RPi. I've never written programs to run on Linux systems, or run multiple threads so a lot of...
Adding a photo to a post is pretty simple. Get it on your computer, assuming you have a digital camera of some sort. While you're typing a post, look just above where you're typing the text and you should see some buttons. From left to right they are font size, font color, bold, italics...

Thanks! As I make significant (interesting) code improvements, I'll post updates about the project. I have been working on the code this morning, but it is mainly in stuff that no one would care about...things such as reducing CPU usage (it was pegged at 100% for 9 hours yesterday and that may...
That much smoke is a bad thing? I get something like that every time I open my smoker, even if all I have leaking out is TBS. Stings my eyes, but I haven't had any meat come out tasting anything less than delicious so far. Maybe I just haven't had good meat yet?
I purchased a Raspberry Pi and received it about a week ago. If you're not familiar with the Raspberry Pi, it is basically a full blow Linux computer and about the size of a credit card. I've added an ADC IC to the board and gave it the capability to monitor up to 10 temperature sensors. I...
