I've seen a couple of posts by Bob Bass and maybe someone else where they mentioned that Harry Soo puts his ATC probe just an inch or two inside the wall of the cooker, away from the meat. Anyone else tried this? I understand the reasoning. I just don't know how to adjust my times and temps. For instance, I've got a couple of 9 pounders I wanted to smoke tonight and most of tomorrow, low-n-slow, so I don't have to hold them hot long before for supper tomorrow night. We like 'em with the bark still crisp. Sixteen hours would be what I'd normally shoot for, cooking at approx. 225-235.
So to make it a rough 16 hr. cook, what should I set my PartyQ to if I'm going to have the probe clipped to the end of my Maverick probe on the top grate, but just outside the edge of the water pan? 250? Anyone got any experience cooking like this?
Thanks,
Dave
