Of course our smokers run great without electronics. But electronic temperature control systems can still free up more of your precious time. You can get a little work done while you cook. You can easily access important cooking information from your cell phone, tablet, or pc. They use fan stokers to assist with getting the pit to temp and maintain temp. Apps provide graphs of pit temp and food temp so you can learn how often to add logs to your firebox. Simply set an alarm so you don't forget. We are working on a design to add the fuel for you, coming soon.
I have tested several popular electronics and I can help you determine which hardware you need for the size pit you ordered.

Option 1: If you already own a blue tooth temp monitoring system
we have a pit temp and fan control system for you. This system controls the fan while your current blue tooth device feeds your phone the data. This is the least expensive route. $250

Option 2: If you need a system to control the fan and feed your phone the data we can sell you the adapter but buy the BBQ Guru electronics from the manufacturer so its easier for you to work with them on the electronics warranty and tech support for hooking up devices and trouble shooting. $95-$145 adapter + buying BBQ Guru from BBQ Guru
