Food Smokers and Smoking Tips/Tricks/Techniques

Are all poopers this way

 

Coz it's raw pork! That stuff will kill ya!

 

Love me some slimey bacon

 

lid?
Edit. As in the lid of the grill? It will read the temp at the lid of the grill, not the grate temp.

 

Dunno, I only have one lol. I suspect they are though. It's really no different than an oven. If you set an oven to say 300f, it's not always 300f. they temp goes up and down, as the heat cycles on and off. Does that make sense?

 

Gotcha ya I don’t have any experience with them.

 

Lots of pics, and a descriptive write up.

Been missing ya. How you doing

 

Yes like on a Weber kettle how there is a thermo drilled thru the lid

 

Good, just really busy the last few weeks, and was out of town working 16’s this week.

You?

 

Same old work gig

 

Back up north eh!!

 

I edited my post, before I saw this. (saw)? lol
Scroll up.

 

Yes sir

 

I'm no expert for sure. To me it's like any cooking device, you have to learn it's quirks.

 

What I was asking is since normally I would read the temperature off the machine on my Daniel Boone do you think a Thermo drilled into the lid it would be a better way of doing it

 

@WBF610

 

No x 2 . It will read the lid temp, not the grate temp. 2, it's a bi-metal thermometer. Meaning it's only accurate at one temp. You can buy good bi-metals, but they won't last being baked every time you use the grill.

 

Asking for the wife.... she wants to replace our bigger 4 burner + side burner (gasp) propane grill with a smaller one... any ideas without spending a bunch of money? I’m thinking 2 burners 3 max.... no side burner
