I'm sure this has been asked before. For those back yard BBQers who spent the extra money to have WiFi capability end the end was it worth it.
was wifi worth the extra $$

Ashely, I guess it depends on what your goals are. For me the folloowing makes it worth it:
1) I love the data I can generate using Stokerlog. It really helps my ability to understand the temps I cook at and the effects that temp changes and time periods effect the flavor of the meats. I litterally print out the graphs and make notes on them.
2)I also like very much the ability to set alarms indoors while I am smoking outdoors and change and set temps. Mostly, when I am doing overnight smokes I can keep the computer near my bed and watch the temps without getting cold...
3) The other advantages of a stoker over the competition are unlimited number of probes and fans controlled by one unit, so we use it at comps to control 2 pits.
my 3 cents
