Ok its a little anticlimactic I know I'm just sous videing a couple of Ribeyes but I had to use it on something lol! It and Joule are off by .5 degrees I can live with that lol Got a choice Brisket I'm gonna try to do this weekend (or early next week) in that dang off set (It taxes me It TAXES ME!) Only got the 3 probes (one pit and two meat) gonna probably order 1 more of each. That way one pit prob for each end of the off set!
Scotch: Current favorite- The Arran (anything by them), Glenmorangie 12yr Lasanta, sherry cask finished. The Balvenie Double Wood, also like Oban 18yr, and The Glenlivet Nadurra (Oloroso sherry cask finished) among others. Neat please.

Awesome! Congrats. I keep wondering if I should get one but darn it if I don't have too many thermometers as it is. I enjoy having one probe in each side of my offset, but it can cause stress seeing a difference sometimes. You may have to retrain yourself to stick to a 'range' instead *a* temp though when doing that.
Actually Huskee that is one of the things I'm interested in. how much swing is there from end to end. Does the water pan make a difference ect but your right if they are off by a bunch it will be worrisome
Well as always with Sous Vide and Joule the Steaks came out wonderful!! I know its about the Fireboard but couldn't resist.
What I did find interesting was the almost one inch thick steaks didn't hit an internal temp of 130 until 1 hour and 45 min in the bath?? I've read that 60 min is enough to cook the meat? very interesting to me lol
Oh I did just take them out of the Fridge, seal and plop into the water so that may have something to do with it lol

Spinaker my old Mavrick died about 6 weeks ago. SO I go on Amazon and find a newer version and it came with some heat resistant gloves. Well the gloves are really to small and the new thermometer (it had presets) was very hard to program it didn't have dedicated probes for pit and meat. Trying to get to the part to change the set point or whatever was not very understandable, it lost contact constantly I just didn't like it. If I'm shooting a video after I get everything going (Pit up to temp meat in or hung ect) I take what I have already shot and go upstairs and start putting it together, Somehow the computer bends time so even though it feels like I've only been working 10 -15 min all of a sudden the alarm goes off I'm either at the 90 min mark or a set internal temp. So I grab all the stuff (usually just the memory chips) and run downstairs and get ready for the next part of the video. Then do it over again. At some point I usually walk out and ITS DARK?? What happen. What I'm saying is I lose track of time and rely on the alarms to keep me from overcooking. The new one would just stop sending but the base unit wouldn't tell me it had lost signal stuff like that. So when I heard that the fireboard start recording the second it was turned on (or started receiving data) I liked that! The graph was very appealing as well so I can see the decline of the wood or charcoal and predict when I might have to go stir the coals or add more wood. Plus the Alexa ad in where she will tell you the temp of all the probs and how long the current session has been going on sold me!! as stated before the meat had been in the bath for 90 min but had not yet reached 130. (It was at 128.3) Close enough I know but it was eye opening!! The new unit I disliked!! Wasn't intuitive at all (to me anyway admittedly I am getting old so it just might be to advanced for me) So the short answer Love the new Fireboard it was easy to program easy to set up with Alexa and I love the Wifi connection never lose connection again!!
GadjetGriller, You May Want to Dedicate One Channel to Ambient Tempsâ“ Takes the BS Out Of The How Cold Was It, Questionsâ“ I honestly think FireBoard has a Faster Response Time than my Thermapen by Thermoworks!
