I have the Inkbird also. Been using it over a year now. Love it. As far as cook temps go.....I just let my smoker settle in where it wants to be. Sometimes depending on weather conditions that can be anywhere between 225 and 300. I let it ride there depending on what I'm cooking.If it likes a steady 260 or 270 , let that be the temp of the day .
Makes it a lot less stressful .
I also have an Inkbird 4 probe . Use it almost daily .
