Hello everyone,
I'm new to smoking and have a newbie question for you guys and gals. I have an Oklahoma Joes offset smoker and I just bought a dual probe thermometer (brand is ThermoPro) so I could get a little more accurate. However, the analog thermometer that came with the smoker and the one i just bought are off by A LOT like at least 60 degrees. I have done ribs twice and a brisket and everything came out so-so as I would consider it but now I'm paranoid wondering which (if either) thermometer is correct/accurate. Did i buy junk? Is it worth just spending the money for a good one? I appreciate any feed back.
