I now have one on my 22 and 26. Quality temp controllers which let me not be attached to my grills the whole day. 10/10 Recommend!
I had been looking at this for close to 6 months or so before I ended up purchasing it and I’m glad I finally did. I’ve only used it twice since I installed it onto my 22” Weber kettle as we’ve been having some naders and a ton of rain. From the two times I’ve used it I just did a couple basic cooks and that was a pork butt and then a couple of chuck roasts and ended up doing the chuck roasts as burnt ends over smoked baked potatoes. Both cooks this spider venom held it at a precise 225 degrees the entire time until I moved it up to 275 degrees. I had seen that it had fluctuated a degree once or twice and that’s more than acceptable. I like that I can control a monitor my Weber kettle and run errands and not have to worry just as you would with a pellet grill and ThermoWorks RFX probes. The flavor of charcoal a wood chunks just can’t be beat. Yea you could run an offset smoker but you’re not leaving that unattended for several hours at a time like you can with the spider venom controller. I still will use my pellet grills but I’ve really been doing 90% of my cooks lately on the good ole Weber kettle. I absolutely love this spider venom controller. I’ve been looking at the spider venom kettles and they’re very nice and built like a tank but a premium price and yes you’ll pay for what you get so that Giant Huntsman is on my wish list. If you’re contemplating on picking up the spider venom controller, do it. You won’t regret it.
I recently bought venom controller and it's amazing. I used to smoke food on my 22" Weber Kettle grill manually. Meaning I was who controlled the temperature and it was time consuming especially on a long cook like a brisket or a pulled pork. With venom I can do my staff while it's control the temperature. And it's doing it really well (the temperature stays within +- 5F of a target).
Just cooked 2 chickens on rotisserie Webber grill. Took all the pain of me having to check the temperature the whole time. It was simple and makes me want to grill more often now.
After a little over 2 years,unit would not power up. Wish I could speak to a human to find out why !
