WOW Rusty, my Traeger is NEVER under my fireboard temp!! That's interesting
Mine will run the other way when it gets to temps around 300
This is a snapshot from both apps now

OKAY, never been my experience so even more an argument for a 3rd party Ambient probe, cuz you could be BURNING your food... not under cooking.

The meat probe from the Traeger is another story. I don't even bother with it anymore

Edit, one benefit of the way my Traeger probe reads, I can use super smoke above 225°F. Set my grill to 225 and it will be running closer to 240

I've never seen this on my 780 either, it's opposite. How weird.

I can work with it. I think it works out better for running super smoke at temps above 225. I can set 225 and the grill will still run in super smoke mode even though it is running hotter. Knowing what temp you actually have is paramount. Never rely solely on a Traeger probe.
I messed up my first two cooks originally and bought the FB2 Drive. That's the true temp I go off of.

Yep, my Traeger meat probe is in a baggie filed away with the direction/instructions to my grill.
 
Last nights cook..... Got the Ironwood and Genesis cranked up. Wings and Costco ribs in the Ironwood. Using my new set of GrillGrates on the Genesis cooking wings with corn starch, chicken breasts with Montreal seasoning and bacon wrapped asparagus. My son in law bought the sauces from a new local business. The owner actually send a note saying thanks. The sauces were great and we supported a local business.3.jpg2.jpg1.jpg
 
I see you guys probe your ribs, I never have before... just use the 3-2 method and mostly not even the 1 added...
What IT are you doing before wrap????
I have never probed my ribs before today. I am still going 3-2-1, it is more of a curiosity on times and temps. I found it interesting they were at 160 at the 3 hour mark
Plus I needed to justify my purchase of the competition probes....lol

AND if there isn't a probe in them, you can't tell what they are doing on the live Fireboard feed!
