I did my first cook and then grill (burgers) with the EXL6 this evening. It went pretty well. I seem to have that hotspot on the right hand side of the SF. I used a Weber temperature probe plugged into the SF in the spatchcocked chicken. I set the alarm for 162. After double checking the temp with a Thermapen I repositioned the probe a couple of times. When I repositioned the probe the second time the temperature reading bounced all over the place from 10+ degrees below 162 to 10+ degrees above 162 in the same spot. At that point I pulled the probe and finished with the Thermapen.
I'm not too concerned because I have a couple of other systems I can use for temp, but that was my first time using a Weber probe. I read of this happening to others with a Weber probe and the SF and I was wondering if anyone has figured out what this is about.
Maybe next time I'll try a Thermoworks probe.
