I drilled holes in my 22 WSM for my other thermo works probes. The new smoker probes have a section near the end that's thicker then the wiring, how the heck do I run my thermo smoke probs in? If I drilled a larger hole once that big section went thru it would leave a gap around the wiring ?

Please help please ! Large cook tomorrow
 
Does your WSM not have the rubber gasket for wires? I have not looked at the Smoke probes but assume they should fit. If not, I would just open up the hole. It does not need to be air tight to get a good cook on. What size hole are you needing to make? >1/2"?
 
Well no chance in getting that today , would a standard hardware store have the rubber part?

My wsm is an older model did come with anything. This blows ha I really wanted to use it tomorrow
 
Perhaps, but I would call first. You could also take it in through the charcoal door.
 
Yeah ageee , the door is sealed really noce so I lm not sure that would work.

Where can I order the rubber Weber part?
 
on my wsm 14.5 I have a dedicated opening sealed with a rubber gasket.
but on the kettle, when I need to continuously check the temp, I run the probe wire thru the vents
 
Until you increase the existing hole to approximately 0.375 diameter for the new probe clearance, why not just run the cable underneath the lid, being careful when closing?
