MEAT TEMPERATURE RECOMMENDATIONS

Reading the temperature: Press
the Center button on the control.
The probe temperature will display
for 5 seconds, then revert back to
the temperature of the grill.
1
Insert the meat probe's plug into the jack
on the lower left corner of the controller,
then thread probe through the access
hole grommet on the left side of the grill
barrel, as shown.
2
Insert the probe tip into the meat.
Make sure it is not in the fatty portion
or touching bone, but is halfway into
the thickest part of the meat.
