Decided to do a biscuit test on my LG700 that I picked up last weekend before I do a big cook of ribs tomorrow. Set the grill at 275 and left it to settle in for a while and it held the temp perfectly but my lid thermo read a steady 320. I know it's normal for the lid to read higher than the grill probe but is 45 degrees a normal variance? I don't have my Maverick yet to get some other forms of reference.
I also did a calibration on my meat probe and in a glass of ice water it read 27 and in boiling water read 211. I'm at 3500 feet elevation so I expect my boiling temp to be off slightly.
I did the same test with a cheap kitchen digital thermometer and the ice water read 33 and boiling water read 208.
The cheap digital seems to be more accurate than the LG meat probe.
Thoughts?
