I was thinking about just salt and pepper or Montreal steak but was worried that could be too salty with the bark to meat ratio (I'm planing on using Montreal steak seasoning for a prime rib roast later this month, because there is so much meat compared...

    Heat shrink in smoker?

    So I got a new thermometer this weekend and unlike the Weber Igrills the probes have no markings or sleeve distinguishing them apart. I use heat shrink at work and thought that would be a great way of distinguishing each probe. They are colour coded in the app so colouring each probe makes...
