My first Rostisere Chicken

Nice results. Would have liked to seen a picture of it cooking in the KK. Dennis uses them in the Instagram account. 

@Longhorn203 - only device of it's kind on the market. Not perfect, but it works well enough most of the time. I'd recommend the MEATER + over the basic model. It has better range.

I'm just worried about direct heat with the Meater probes.  Its only in the 500 degree range.  If that radiant heat hits it and the food is too close it could be curtains for that probe.

I've used mine multiple times on rotisserie cooks and haven't seen any problems with the temperatures. There's a scored line on the probe that they tell you must be inserted into the meat up to that point to protect the internal circuits/battery. Plus, there's an "alarm" setting in the software to warn you if the probe is being exposed to too high a heat level.

This helps with my decision.  Thanks Tony.  I want one for sure.  I’m going to get the extended range.

Edit: Purchased.

Great looking chicken! I bought 2 meater + probes a couple weeks back and have cooked pork ribs, whole chickens, brisket, steak etc with them and they work perfectly. Can’t wait for my 32 to get here so I can try them out with it. My vision is being able to set the 32 at the temp I want and not having to worry about anymore adjustments and just monitor internal meat temp. With my current kamado I can do long cooks but I know around the 5-6 hour mark my ambient will start to move and I have to adjust airflow. I shouldn’t have this issue with the new beast.

No, you won't have that problem anymore!

I know I'll get in trouble Antonio but, taking a second look at your bird makes me think if you might have been a photographer for Playboy....just the way the background fades out and your subject remains sharp'.  Gotta love that roto, it's hypnotic.
