I've been curious to see the temperature difference between the thermometer probe on top and the center of the cook chamber. I new the chamber temp was hotter, but wasn't sure by how much and how consistent the temp difference was. The top two temps in the screenshot are of the Karubecue.

I have a Fireworks probe installed on the inside right hand hanger, using their grate holder. I also put a probe in the output hole on the top of the control box (it looks like it attempts to measure the convection temp since it sits on the top of the cookbox).
I have found that the difference between the internal probe and the top probe is roughly 25F. Interesting that as the cook gets close to completion the delta reduces to only 5F or so.

This is interesting. A 25 F variance is not tat big of a deal if you ask me. Plus the air is whipping around in the cook chamber so I think things cook pretty evenly, for the most part.
Personally, I don't get too caught up in the temp variances in the KBQ. I rotate the racks when I am cooking so I make sue things are cooking pretty evenly. It is a little bit more work, but for that flavor, I am happy to do it.
I always love seeing these data sets, they are always interesting to see when the fan is cycling on and off.
Thanks for the data. Always interesting! Good to hear from you!
