Hey guys and gals, i recently purchased an masterbuilt electric cookmaster smoker , following the directions i put it together as directed. I installed the temperature gauge that came with the unit that goes in the door, but was not totally convinced this was enough temp control and ultimatly ended up purchasing a new digital temperature gauge.(here 's where the fun starts). Deciding today was tthe day for my first chicken cook off i set my smoker to its high setting ,and placed the new digital temp gauge in the smoker after giving it some time to preheat i noticed a drastic difference in the to temp guages? the factory gauge was reading 210 F but the internal guage was reading 269F? My question is whose the liar here and is this common? Which is more accurate? Don't forget folks a total newbie here. Thanks in advance for your responces ur all great so far!
