During my last smoke out I noticed something very weird and I am hoping that someone may be able to help me.
I set my Pellet grill to 250 degrees and placed three temp probes in the dead center of the grill. The probe tips were pointed at each other in and area of about a nickel, but I am getting very different readings from each probe.
Maverick ET-732 smoker probe - 385 degrees
Maverick ET-732 meat probe - 180 degrees
Generic Meat Probe - 250 degrees
A few days later I decided to run tests on the probes to see if any of them were broken and I go the following responses
Ice Bath
Maverick ET-732 smoker probe - 33 degrees
Maverick ET-732 meat probe - 34 degrees
Generic Meat Probe - 33 degrees
Boiling Water
Maverick ET-732 smoker probe - 210 degrees
Maverick ET-732 meat probe - 212 degrees
Generic Meat Probe - 212 degrees
Any thoughts on why these three would +/- 2 degrees of each other in the tests, but completely different when in the smoker?
