Smokers

[Sculpin]

For the temp thing I use a cheapo wireless BBQ unit, I can leave the smoker in the yard and see the temps from the couch.

Lazy but awesome.

What a great idea with the wireless. Thank you.

Lazy but awesome.

You could look at it while doing pushups too.

I'm not familiar with the wireless bar-b-que temp gauge-where does on get one. Is it an add on to a normal gas bbque

Got mine at the Real Canadian Super Store about 4 years ago. Paid around $20 IIRC,..............BB

Home hardware carries them. The one I use has 2 probes, 1 for the box temperature and one that you stick in what ever your are smoking. It has 2 units, 1 sits on your smoker or bbq with wires connected to the probes and this unit broadcasts to the remote unit. I have my smoker outside the front door and the signal seems to work fine to the unit inside the house. You can set alarms on them for box temp or the internal temp of your meat/fish. Mine is a Maverick, they are more expensive than the baseline units but I have had mine for nine years--still going strong. Works great on pulled pork or brisket. Sounds like we may have to have a SFBC bbq--except we can't talk about hali regs!

if you have a home built one of these might work. then when you see from your couch (lol) your temp has dropped you dont even have to go turn on your burner. http://www.littlegreenhouse.com/accessory/controls.shtml one at bottom of page with probe can go up to 220F
