New member here, actually I got my BDS 4 rack last fall and used it a couple of times for fish and ribs.
So during the winter I surfed the net and decided to call this home.
Quick question to anyone, Is there a difference between a pit probe and an internal meat probe?
I only have a remote meat probe and when I thought to check the BDS pit temp I used it and it showed 70 degrees higher than the Smoke generator.
BTW I Put on a 12 Packer this AM and hope all the info I am getting here will help me make it half as good as some of the pics here !!

Welcome to the forum from Nebraska.  I'm not sure what you mean by a "pit probe", perhaps one to measure the temp of the box/cabinet??  But I think a probe is a probe and I've heard that the temps measured by the Bradley are not that accurate.  You could always check the accuracy of your pit probe with some boiling water or ice though.  I'm certain the more knowledgeable will be along shortly with more help.  Good luck with your smoke.  Can't wait to see the results!!

Welcome from down in Texas, the temp on the BDS readout is notoriously off due to it's sensor position on the back wall above the heating element, it's best to hang a probe thermometer below your meat for a more accurate reading of what your meat is actually getting heatwise and a separate probe in the meat for an accurate IT reading.
