Now we've dried out, last night was chicken on the baby Weber and tonight was ribeye with pumpkin and I added crumbled feta on top of the pumpkin when plating.

But where’s the steak?

But where’s the steak?

Nothing special, salt pepper and garlic, cook to medium. Hubby happy, followed up with homemade spice cake with honey whipped cream, honey from sisters bee hive

Pork Loin Air Fryer (Phillips XXL). Some of best crackling we’ve ever done.

Chunky ribeye, Weber-q

 

[Daver6]

Hubby bought me a Weber Kettle and I got a GoAnywhere (aka The Baby Weber) for road trips - the GA is a great piece of kit for small cooks.

I use the Inkbird 4T wifi thermometer and happy to buy again (when/if they update so we can use 5G)

I've always struggled with whole fish on the BBQ. Whole pumpkin is something I must try.
My Inkbird is the IBT-4XS

For those with the Inkbirds, I'm considering getting one for my smoker. Amazon currently have the wifi one on sale Inkbird WiFi Meat Thermometer Wireless Remote BBQ Thermometer IBBQ-4T with 4 Probes, Magnet Ovenproof Digital Cooking Thermometer Rechargeable for Smoker Electric Oven Grill Kitchen Food Candy: Kitchen Thermometers: Amazon.com.au

I'd like to use one probe in the meat and the second to just monitor the temperature inside the smoker. I presume that's possible? I'd want to set a range for the smoker probe, so that if it went outside the range I'd get an alarm. Is this possible?

Yes n Yes

I have the 4T and yes, you can place a prob inside the bbq to monitor temp and another in the meat/chicken ect.

FYI, 4T doesnt work on 5G but thats not been a prob for me yet.

I really like mine, easy to use, easy to charge. I do suggest you get the case to keep all your stuff in.

cheers

FWIW: The MEATER shows you both meat temperature and external temperature.

By 5G I presume you mean the 5G wifi spectrum as opposed to 5G mobile network? IF the former, certainly a non-issue. In fact, 2.4Ghz is going to give better range.

I like how compact it is, but it's Bluetooth only. At $200 for 50m Bluetooth range or $500 for wifi...they're dreaming!

It's actually a mix of Bluetooth and Wifi. The probe talks to the base station/charger unit via Bluetooth, and then the base station connects to your wifi network, which is how it connects to the app on my phone. I have the Meater+ unit which has the 50m range.

Although, while it shows the external and internal temperature, I haven't found a way to set an alert if the external temp goes over (or under) a limit.

No. The probe connects to the host box (long range) by bluetooth then the host box connects by wifi to your phone and tablet. Just a bottle of wine price - A$113.

I cook mine to well done, so no need for fancy temp monitors. If I can see red it’s burnt some more

But the best steaks are AGED.
If I won lotto I would get a Dry Ager cabinet

If I won the lotto I’d just buy Dry Aged steaks from the butcher every week!

And Dry Aged meat should never be cooked well done. ”If it’s mooin’ I ain’t chewin’“ is not the way. YMMV.

Reverse sear tomahawk, (sensible butcher cut the bone off so it would fit in pan - and didn’t charge for the bone!)

Reverse sear done in air fryer at 75C with MEATER to 42C then 2mins turning in pan with butter.

Topped off with sprinkles of 25 yo Aceto Balsamico Extra Vecchio! Was one of my best efforts I thought.
