Auber Dual Probe and 19lbs of Butts

classicrockgriller · January 17, 2010, 04:55:11 AM

I did a little playin with the Auber Dual Probe last nite and wasn't going
to start these Butts until sometime on Sunday but I couldn't wait.

One was 10 1/2lbs and the other was 8 1/2lbs.

I set the pre-heat step to 250* for one hr.

The cooking step was set for 220* until the butt reached an IT of 195*

Once the IT is reached the Auber will cause Gabi to drop down to 150* for two hrs before shutting off.

Once again after 12 to 13 minutes of pre-heat Gabi had reached the targeted pre-heat temp of 250*

The butts went into the Bradley at 11:00 last nite and they got 5 hrs of mesquite smoke.
After the hr of pre-heat the cabinet temp was 180* with the two butts in it.

Pics @ 2:00 am

At 6:00 am the IT was 131*

I see two probes in the bottom Butt. Is one of them the maverick to dbl check temps, or is there another reason for two probes?

Did you stay up all night watching these? Pictures at 2;00 and 6:00? Must not have gotten much sleep.

I'm thinking he is using his Maverick to remotely snoop what the Auber is seeing..

I had a conversation with toker and he told some of the members are placing

thier maverick probes close to the auber probes.

They remotely monitor the maverick knowing that it might be within 1 to 2 degrees of the Auber.

12 hrs into the smoke.

The auber has been running 217 to 222, so I might need to autotune it after this smoke.

Great job CRG! :D

They're looking perfect...

Toker · January 17, 2010, 10:52:27 AM

If you want to and if your butts are not completly cooked yet, you could do the autotune at the same time some members said just do it within 10 degres of your set IT. Or even now if you want to.

Thanks hal and toker.

I had been wanting an Auber for a while, but had no problems with the digital making good BBQ.

Now if I can find a way to get a remote signal strong enough to reach me at the little salon down the road

Things will be almost perfect.

What you are looking for is called a procom 4 with a power raptor but it cost almost 700$usD

Well that won't work not for $700.

This little Bradley smoker is already getting expensive enough.
