Hey Stefan where did you get the blue OTG. I am looking to get one, but here in BC it hard to find.

Nice, I took it one step farther and added the same thermometer / bezel that is on some of the platinum / performer models. Got both for about 15 on ebay, drilled a hole, sealed with hi-temp black paint, and put thermometer in!
Works great for smoking!
What size bit did you use and what were your reasons for placing it where you did? I have the same therm coming.

I bought a replacement thermometer for a gas grill. It has a really short inside thermometer part. Drilled a hole and inserted it. It came with a screw for the inside.
I convert my 22.5 Kettle to smoke often and without the attached thermometer I could never keep the temp at 270. My vents are almost completely shut when I smoke and the thermometer is a necessity. In addition the hole I had to drill is completely sealed by the thermometer and screw.
