Ralph - there were a few half burn briquettes, but for the most part everything burnt off.

Oh, I forgot to mention. The 3 lb bone in butt read > 190 around 1630. I removed it, took it inside and checked it out. It didn't pull so I put it back in the smoker with the probe inserted somewhere else. You can see that the temp dropped, then followed the 8 lb butt's curve. Very odd, I...

Bryan (and everyone else) - Thanks for all the great info! Do you plan to make boards available for purchase, for this solution or the linksys variant? (Sorry if this has been asked, I haven't really come across the question). I have been following this thread and the previous router based...
