I’m really quite concerned that my probe is not working properly. I currently have a pork shoulder churning away at 149 degrees and has been for about 11 hours, and the probe claims the pork is 177 degrees. Worse, when I insert a regular thermometer, it tells me the shoulder is actually only 140 degrees.

So the probe appears to be completely off, but so, too, does the oven temperature sensor.

Any thoughts?

Joe

I have the same problem, with a very early probe (and oven). I reported it to support.
