Hello again from a cold Sweden, last night we had -23 Celsius.
I've noticed now a couple of times that i get temp drops in the meat. I had some bacon in and after 8 hours in 160F the IT it was 144F then IT drop to 122F when i checked it after another hour, and I don't nothis any drop in the cabinet temp.
Anyone noticing this?

I've seen a drop from 160 to 150, but not as low as you saw.

How was the cabinet temp?

Vent position?

The cabinet didn't drop, it was steady at 165F, i use the auberin dual probe and one extra tempprobe. It shows the same temp. Is it common that bacon takes about 10 hours in that cabintemp?

FLBentRider

8 to 10 hours is what I see most at that temp.

Is your smoker inside like a garage or is it outside? If outside you might want to think about getting a shelter for it.

The smoker is inside my garage. Not good to smoke when its -23 Celsius
