Fireboard 2

[Francwa73]

Reading this feed has peaked my interest in the Fireboard. The last few cooks seem to have been too hot, with my regular Traeger probe firing off on the set temp way before the estimated cook time. Question; do ya'll order directly from the company and their website, or is there a reseller you prefer to use?

I use my IW650 about 3-4 times a week, so this may be a good investment.

Order Direct, do consider requesting substitution with Competition Probes, much better to work with.

I ordered the Gen 1 unit directly from Fireboard in Feb 2018. They were very responsive in answering a couple questions.

I emailed Fireboard on Friday, competition probes do not have ambient probes. The tech said that the Extreme probe have 1 ambient and 4 regular meat probes. So that would make 6 meat probes and 2 ambient.

I called FireBoard and asked for a order with the competition probes and 2 ambient probes ( do the subtraction at the factory...)
So I bought the fire board2 and the competition pack , wrote a note on the order and they removed the 2 short probes and gave me 49 credit on the order...

Bottom line is, they are a down to earth local business that take their product and their customers seriously>>> This is a rare thing during this upsidedown culture of ours.

I agree, they are about 3hrs from me. Seams like they are a fairly small company and fairly new. I hope they got my email in time but even if they didnt. Im excited to get it and try it this weekend.

I think you'll be satisfied with what was sent.
I may order a couple competition probes at a later date, but I am satisfied with the ones I have.

The stock probes are fine, I just passed the connector thru the side port instead of the probe, especially if I had a few probes in. It's a bit dicey when the grill is really hot to pass things thru the smallish port, but do-able.

Like I said Timmy, get a spare $17 here or there and order the comp probes, you're fixed for life
