    I purchased the costco shoulder/butt combo pack and I can't tell the difference between the two halves. Last time I was mistaken in my assessment of which was which based on the results.

    Bull Bull running cold?

    I am pretty sure my bull is running colder than it shows in the APP. The first thing that made me think this is my times run alot longer than everyone elses.

    Cold Smoker

    I am getting ready to buy a RT-700 this month and can't decide on whether I want to get the cold smoker attachment. I've seen a few very old threads on the subject, but nothing new. I know there were some complaint about the temperature not getting low enough to be useful. Is this still true...
