Concertina wire, while prepping the turn in boxes.

Ive got a wireless thermo, its nice but its not necessary. Ive got 2 probes that I feed down the chimney: 1 is to verify the dial thermo on the door, the other goes in the smaller butt. Once the smaller butt strikes its temp, I put the probe in the bigger butt. Once I'm convinced the dial thermo on the door is accurate, I put the probe in the brisket.
 I also carry a quick read thermo in my pocket to do a spot check on things like fatties, and to check the butts in different places while the door is open.

OOOO, BBQ dreams time.
Lets see. I want a custom offset from Peoria http://www.peoriacustomcookers.com/new/home.html My BBQ partner will want either a FEC, Spicewine or Stumps cooker. http://www.smokymountainsmokers.com/fec_series_web.pdf http://spicewineironworks.com/index.php?p=smoker http://stumpssmokers.com/ I'll need a nice 3/4 ton to pull the trailer, I'm lusting over Ford F250 King's Ranch edditions right now http://www.fordvehicles.com/trucks/superduty/?v=html I cook with a combo of Hickory, Oak and Cherry wood. My partner is fond of the Kingsford with fruit wood for flavor. No links for wood, but www.kingsford.com/ A good thermometer is a must have and we use Maverick ET 73s: http://www.amazon.com/Maverick-ET-73...3073273&sr=8-1 You can find them cheaper but that is the only link I have. Since we are dreaming here lets step up to a BBQ Guru: www.thebbqguru.com/ Good knives really are worth their weight in gold. I like Wusthof http://www.amazon.com/W%C3%BCsthof-C...3073529&sr=8-8 You'll need to keep things cold. For a classic look I love Coleman's 54quart red steel cooler: http://www.amazon.com/Coleman-54-Qua...3073656&sr=1-6 For comps and serious jobs try this out:150qt marine cooler http://www.amazon.com/Coleman-150-Qu...073656&sr=1-10 Vaccum sealers are a great tool. I've had good luck with the foodsaver brand: http://www.amazon.com/Food-Saver-T00...3074098&sr=1-2 Hope that helps, we can talk about more specifics if you want. Just let us know.

A hot looking Red Thermapen would be my tool. Maybe a 12 pack also to make sure the cook gets marinated correctly.

Best tool - Good judgement.
