Cold Outside Temps?
« on: January 19, 2014, 01:47:15 PM »
Hey all -

Does the Auber work in cold (down to -10F overnight) outside temperatures?  I've looked through their documentation and couldn't find an operating temperature range.

Anyone from up north own one of these?

I've used mine in -20F, granted I'm not sure it is really great for it.  Just saying that is the coldest I've used it and didn't have any issues with the Auber unit.  It has been a great little unit for me so far.

Wow.  You guys are hardcore!  That's a question I would never be able to answer...ever!  My Southern blood couldn't even think about smoking meat at -10 or -20!  Brrrrrrr!!!!! :o

OK...I guess we all know Wik (Chad) pretty well now! :o   Love the sense of humor, though!  That photo shoot HAD to be painful, even for a Minnesotan!  I've been married to one for 28 years, so I know Minnesotans!

To late for those that didn't get to see it and have a good ole laugh over the photo.  Must have been cabin fever setting in.  Decided to pull it down before it offended someone! ::)

Nah, Wik, if that "offended" anybody, they probably wouldn't fit in here! ;D   Funniest thing I've seen here yet!  I'm still thinking new profile pic!  Besides, I have a screenshot for backup.  Hahahaha!

Ok I really just pulled it for self dignity, plus those normal shorts somehow looked like speedos in that picture!  No one needs to see that!  That and I'd feel bad if anybody shot beer out there nose and onto their keyboard.

I'm curious about what type of beer was in the glass and what was in the smoker.  Big mystery!
