I have a gas smoker and am in the process of adding a PID controller to allow me to control and monitor the state of my cooks. The PID controller will have many features above what one would have if purchased. I am building it myself. I dont want this to be too technical, i will answer questions, it isn't a secret.
The PID controller will be able to upload cook information from a cook to the cloud and to a cell phone. At this point, the cell phone is the most interesting for the advice i am looking for.
The question is, would it be beneficial for the phone app to be able to monitor both the smoker condition and the meat condition? In other words, if you can control the smoker with your phone or tablet, would it be useful to also be able to monitor the meat probes in the same app?
