We usually have subzero temps around the time of the SuperBowl. With this I can throw on a pork butt and a beef brisket at midnight with some hickory chunks and have pulled pork and brisket sammiches at game time without having to freeze my ass off going outside to check on things. There are 3 meat probes for checking the internal temp of whatever I'm cooking as well. The only issue I'm having so far is that my iPhone won't let the controller app run in the background for more than a few minutes.
