SKU: PV538 Meat Probe, New High Temp Cable

Only my second time to use this probe so far but I like it very well. Only time will tell how well it holds up.

This is the third probe I’ve had for my Amerique , I just used it this weekend and it works fine if I would pick one thing the probe should be a little longer with the pork butt on the bottom shelf a rouuting the line to the side to avoid other items in the smoker there is no slack at all in the probe it would be nice to be at least 6 inches longer

Bought this for a FEC100 (purchased from another vendor) due to payment terms. Several thing stand out to me. Probe seems to be high quality. I havent used it yet, so no comments on accuracy at this time. As for the FEC100, it is a beast. I did a pork rib roast in in for the inaugural cook , outstanding! Now my issues: 1. A $6000 smoker did not include the probe (unsat). 2. the probe wire routes via the font door. (also unsat) Recommendations to cookshack would be to find a way to include the probe and to work with paypal/affirm or others for finance options for customers. This is my 3rd cookshack product 1- Sm045 supersmoker roughly 20years ago 2-Fast Eddy PG 500 roughly 15 years ago 3- FEC100 recent Would reccomend any of the smokers, the pg500 cooked well but could be difficult to operate due to the controller.

I've bought several of these over the years. 10 years ago these were very delicate and required special handling to clean. This newer version is constructed much better but I wish I could figure out why they go bad after about 2 dozen smokes. I'm buying 2 more this time. My last smoke the probe read 178 degrees when I stuck in meat that was 56 degrees. I used a probe for a grill to compare the 2. Bottom line is these are now better and rugged but can go bad so keep a spare on hand.
