Ok. It's on and I just need the temp to stabilize. Seems like it wants to cruise at 275*, so I may let it. Now, some answers. The thermometer check at 212* was just to see where they were in boiling water. 212* is where water boils, I plugged that number in. No reason other than to keep the beeping off unless the probes hit 212* while they were in. Obviously, they did not. :shocked: OK, I'm not shocked. The alarm probe is just to get me in the ballpark before I start probing for doneness. I just check to see how far off they are. Each time they are a little more off. IKEA 6.00 probes. No big deal. mchar69, The aluminum pan is the drip pan for the weber. On more than one occasion, our lovely wind has decided to relocate it throughout the yard (once making it over the rock wall). The last time it happened, the whole grill took a dive. I found the pan, put it in the bottom, put the charcoal grate (that fell out when the whole thing came crashing down) and cooking grate back in and put the lid back on. It didn't blow away anymore... When I started the chimney, I just threw it on top. No need to put it together for lighting charcoal, especially when we are supposed to have 10-20 mph wind with 15-25 mph gusts tomorrow. THAT, by the way, was the main reason I decided to do this today, and so late. I got nothing better to do tonight, so why not.
