Just tried this method for the first time with baby backs. Used 2-1-1 method. They came out amazing. I usually use 2-2-1. 2-1-1 was perfect IMO at 225. Flavor was great. I was worried about them being to sweet.
ah ok if thats the case I'll keep it so I can monitor 3 things at once. All in all the MES probe was pretty close for me. Ran the thing for a few hours and with the smoker set at 225 my probes were both usually within a degree or two of 235. If I turned the MES up to 230 the probes would swing...
looks like once the smoker comes down to 220 both these probes should read around 235. This is taking readings right near the MES probe though. Going to get even more complicated when Im smoking on the bottom or top rack. Fun stuff. I guess the important thing is that the probes are within a...
now that the heating element is off the 2 probes are dead on 261. so I guess that is a plus. Going to see what I have to do do the smoker temp to get both probes to read 235.
this is frustrating. testing out my maverick with my MES and right now the smoker is reading 227. Probe 1 is reading 261 and Probe 2 is reading 264. Just bumped the smoker down to 190 to see what happens. Both probes are on the same rack close to the MES probe. Does this seem normal???
Also ordered the 733. Thinking I'll run it through the vent on the left and clip it on the grate near the probe for the MES. Only thing that sucks is I guess I won't be able to just pull out the grate while cooking. I figure I will be able to learn the difference between the two probes this...
Well the ribs came out pretty good. I would like them a little less tender but the wife loves when they fall off the bone. Will probably order that thermometer and give short ribs a try next.
Yeah just using the thermometer on the unit. Not sure why I spent money on this thing if I'm going to have to spend another 70 on a digital thermometer. So annoying.
Took the ribs out after 2 hours of smoke and foiled them. Temp is having trouble getting back up to 235. Seems to be stuck at 216. Looks like shutting the vent almost all the way may have helped. At 222 now.
Filling up the loaded only once seems to work a lot better. Not sure why the directions tell you to use a full cup of chips. Unless they consider that loader a cup. Which it is not.
