    ET-73 "fell apart"

    I was happy today when I got mail from the US with a Maverick ET-73 inside. The first thing I noticed, though, was that it looked a bit "cheap" all together. Especially the on-off switches on both transmitter and reciever was very small and looked vulnerable. And I was right: After playing some...

    A slight taste of burned rubber

    Hi, my last experience is this: I cooked four pounds of pork with the minion method.

    Temperature in meat wouldn't raise

    350 or 250? Minion, water in pan or not? Or maybe a flower pot base?

    Hi, I'm relatively new to this and after following your discussions I'm totally mixed up. I have used the minion method and find the meat very juicy. So when should I rather cook in 325 degrees with empty water pan and when is 225 with water better? Or is it anyway better with a flower pot base...
