I am not exactly sure where to hang or mount the smoker temp prob, right now i am just pre-heating and its just hanging there about in the middle.
There is a clip for it it looks like so i can hang it from something.

I just hang mine from the lowest rack that has food on it, as close to the middle as I can get.

I put mine under the bottom of the rack the food is on (with the clip). I leave it off to the side so nothing drips on it.

Clip was easier then i thought, way easier then just having it dangle there. If i have it to close to the walls of the bradley will it read wrong? I was working on the bottem shelf so i couldnt get it to far back so its near the front door.

I haven't had an issue, but mine sits at least an inch or two from the wall. The wire may hit the wall but not the probe.

I hang mine on the lowest rack the food is on also.

About in the middle close by the door.

Like KevinG....I place it so nothing drips on it.
