Since the Delta T (cooking grate temperature to lid temperature) changes throughout the cook, how do you accomodate that ?I replaced mine with River Country brand with a 2" stem. I had to drill a hole using a unibit but it works well and I can adjust it to match the temp on the grate without the need to have a probe on the grate itself.
I grew up in South County. My first time in Pensacola I thought it was just like St Louis but not as hot.Yuk - my WSM thermometer probably looks like that too.. I went for a walk in my St. Louis MO neighborhood and it's so dang humid it was more like a swim! Feels more like gulf coast that midwest here right now. I'll take off my cover and check the thermometer to see if I have the same or not.
Just go for grate temperature as your standard temperature guide that is why I set mine up as if I have a probe on the grate. I would never worry about the lid temperature.Since the Delta T (cooking grate temperature to lid temperature) changes throughout the cook, how do you accomodate that ?
