are grilling/BBQ Temperature probes compatible among different grilling thermometers?

Its funny, I have been looking for a Platypus ( Weber Platinum) for the Crimson kettle I received from Weber as a warranty replacement. I decided to put it in a standard performer cart. I wasn't able to find a Weber Platinum on FB marketplace or anywhere else. I did score a really good deal on...

This looks like a good option for giving older kettles a new life Definitely less hassle than trying to retro fit a standard kettle into a second hand Performer cart. I noticed that the kettle will sit slightly higher in this cart than it would in performer cart. It would probably require a...

I do my best to invest in quality tools. Knipex is Gold standard in linesman pliers. I love the Klein tools as well

Smoke hole really heats this kettle up
