    learned a lesson about filling a smoker with lots of meat .

    i've had a longhorn combo for almost a year . i've used the offset side mostly and always started with a chimney of hot coals and added splits for the actual cook . i've cooked 1 and 2 pork shoulders on it at a time and never noticed a difference in cooking times . i tried to stay around 275...

    Inkbird IRF-4S vs. IBT-6XS ?

    i'm thinking i want 6 probes but 1500 ft range vs 150 is enticing although 150 ft will probably get me to my neighbor across the road and a 1/4 mile range is just crazy unusable for me . however the 4 probe being waterproof is is great insurance IMO but nothing sitting a glass bowl or pyrex...
