So i have a butt in, was hoping to get it done by 11:30 am tomorrow, but since the mes 40 is being a pain today..It doesn't look like it's going to happen, got this unit for christmas and have used it 3-4x and usually the temp is about 50 degrees off, but today... the IT reads 275, but maverick says 178 on butt rack. Meat probe is dangling where the maverick temp probe is and it reads 222 i can deal with 275/225 difference, which i normally do, but 275 to 178 is too high, isn't there a temp the meat needs to be to exit a "safe zone"? at the start of smoking? Maybe i should throw some chips in the burner,,, i am using the AMPS tray right now with chip tray slightly out... Meat's been in about 1 hour or so and is 75
