While the ET733 is much better with the range, I still have lost connection in my room. Which isn't very far at all. But it does pick up after a few seconds, so pretty great overall.
Tappecue is showing 3 deg difference in chamber probe temp (lower) than the maverick. I got an email back already today in regards to the intervals. They are set to 30sec intervals but can be set to as low as 20sec. So I changed that on mine. No way to cal the unit as of right now. But they did offer good news that graphing will be coming directly to the app. So that is some exciting news.
So today I have a pork loin cut in 2 brined overnight and rubbed. 1 with Famous Dave's and 1 with a local competitors rub (see photo) that I have never tried before. Hope it is good. Also in the smoker is a small butt around 7.5lbs or so that I have my basic rub on.
Interesting thing is while I was typing this, I received an email notification that my smoker was above the max temp setting and within a few seconds I heard the belch. NOW THAT IS COOL! Toy or not this is pretty slick.
I will video more a little later in the smoke.
