After being off line for a couple of years due to some misunderstandings (mostly mine) my PID modification link is active again:

Enjoy,...

If you google 'smokintex 1430 pid' you will find one way to install a PID controller

I had assumed that point - the oven will help speed up the cooking process.

Cut the 3 larger pieces in half so they are all roughly the same weight. Rotate the pieces a few times during the smoke. If you run short of time finish everything in your oven.

You might try a google search on 'smokintex mods'. Could find something useful there.

Make sure you don't allow the drain to clog in cold weather.

Yes I did add a PID controller. Keeps the temperature range lower.

David,
I regularly smoke pork butts in cold weather that have taken 15 hours or more. It is a common practice to smoke for 3-4 hours and finish cooking in your oven. This also makes it easier to...

I cannot argue with your logic

Curt

I don't have a problem with the peaks/valleys, I just want to narrow the range. If I only wanted 'acceptable', I would just buy smoked products at the supermarket :)

Curt

Can you give us more details about your upgrade?

Thanks,
Curt

I really like my smoker but I am concerned about the temperature range (see below) as the unit cycles on and off. As you can see there can be as much as a 30 degree swing in the high/low cooking...
