I forgot to test my 732 in boiling water before the cook. I have the BBQ temp probe danging in the lid vent maybe 4" of probe and wire.
My lid thermo (which I did check last summer) is 35F less than the maverick. At least it is consistent.
This makes me wonder if I've been smoking food at 250-260 all the time instead of 220. Im pretty good at dialing in the wSM to 220-230 for long periods.
I did an overnight brisket, only my second one, and got one high temp alarm shortly after bed and a low temp alarm around 6am.
I'm holding the WSM now at 220 lid temp since that has worked for butts and ribs, tracking 255 on the Maverick. Food probe says 163 now at 8:30 am so we'll see how it comes out.
Pictures later...
