Is There an ATC that can Control Two Smokers at the Same Time?

[TBoneJack]

Does anyone make an ATC that can control two smokers at the same time? I often have two 22" WSMs going at the same time.

Thanks.

I highly doubt it, but ya never know

Honeywell UDC3500 can do dual loop control.

Haha. Now you are really geeking out, talking about using an industrial controller to automate the grill!

Now why didn't I think of 'borrowing' one of these... 🤣🤣

I doubt it. There is no problem monitoring multiple cookers - I've done that even with a simple 2 channel Smoke, but most controllers only have one fan control output, even if they have 6 input channels.

Back in my lab days, I always opted for dedicated controllers for each device rather than any kind of multi setup. This way if a controller malfunctions, only one device is affected, whereas if the multi-controller fouls up, they all go down. I doubt I'll ever have more than one smoker, but I'd apply this principle if I did.

Monitor yes. Control, not with common units.

I ended up with two fire boards.

Me too. Two Fireboards with drive cables, purchased before the new integrated Fireboards came out.

u like your Fireboards?

FireBoard software is buggy but still better than others I’ve tried.

The guru and Tappecue are bug city and very hard to diagnose when not working.
