    Need some expertise on a thermometer.

    I think it is accurate, probably more so than the lid thermometer. I also think based on observations the temperatures change all the time and the Smoke is quicker to respond to those changes. I think sometimes the temperatures cross paths and are close but the lid is spiking and the Smoke is...

    Need some expertise on a thermometer.

    Yes! I agree, I'm going to keep using it, just used it Saturday to cook 4 racks of ribs. It seems to me that it is ABOUT 20 degrees difference most of the time! I must say I'm addicted to my smoker!!!!!

    Greetings

    i must say i can't believe the smoker! it maintains temperatures incredibly. it is 4 degrees in New Canada Maine right now. I've been smoking a chicken for almost two hours and the temperature has kept in the smoker at 175 for two hours. It is absolutely amazing. I did put water in the pan. I...

    Greetings

    so if you were to cook a whole chicken, lets say a beer can chicken, would you just set it on the cooking grate and leave it? or have to turn it?
