/infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif O.K. This isn't a WSM question, but thought you might have some thoughts on this subject.
I was cooking some boneless chicken breast on my Weber Kettle. Being the anal person I am, I check everything with my thermo. The chicken took way too long to come up to temp (165). When I cut into it, it was over cooked and dry.
I then tested the thermo by placing it in a glass of ice water (it registered 33) then into boiling water (it registered 211).
What went wrong? Is is possible for the thermo to be correcct on high and low ends of the scale and so far off in the middle? Before you ask--
Yes I probed the meat in different spots and no, I was sober.
Thanks in advance for your help.
