    reviews on the new 400 model aren't spectacular, and the older model is somehow more expensive

    does it have a fan for temp control or is it just a badass thermometer?

    Yeah, they sell a fan to go along with the badass thermos. $189 for the unit with 1 amb probe and 2 food probes. Then about $80 for fan control drive, and $60 for a fan. (you don't have to buy your fan from them though if you've got a fan that their control drive supports) So all in all, about $330.

    Anyone know what do do with this cut? Walked in to buy whatever meat was on the biggest sale and ended up with this. Cook it like a roast or slice into steaks?

    Yeah. Just googled beef butt tenderloin and what I found said it's a lean meat that can be cooked to low temps, so that's what I would do.

    Wanted to try some new rubs so splitting a pack of wings between these tonight. Reviews say the Chipotle one has a kick so looking forward to that.

    In general accessories made by BGE are overpriced. Find the stuff made by them you want and then find a cheaper version on Amazon or Home Drpot

    Edit: I haven’t purchased anything for either of my BGEs. I got some stuff thrown in when I bought them, but I don’t have any of the fancy shit/mods. I use them to smoke and grill stuff which is pretty easy with the standard setup.

    I wrap on my kettle because it’s a creosote machine. I don’t wrap on the BGEs because they burn so clean (almost too clean).

    So forgot the post pics but did a burn in to get a feel for temp control and went from 700 back down to 200 then held at 500 for a few hours.
    Lost the nut in the yard for the left side grate but got another while I held it at 500 for that burn in time.

    Ok so this thing is basically just the thick end of the beef tenderloin. It's a little too thick to grill off like you would a tenderloin but it has the same texture. Not a ton of flavor though bc there's not much fat. Very lean. Next time I'll go overboard on the rub to build more flavor and then do a heavy sear. If you like tenderloin, you'll like this.

    Funny you say that, wife said it felt like a mix between prime rib and a filet. Really tender piece of meat. Texture of prime rub but tenderness of a filet.

    100% spatchcock, rub to taste, and let it ride. I'm smoking a turkey and a breast this year. It's easy.

    If you wanna get crazy do an injection.
