I went for the us thermometer mentioned earlier from an eBay seller. Took a little time to arrive and I got stung with customs but it is a very handy remote thermo. I was surprised at how far out the lid thermo was particularly at the higher temp.

Thanks for the reply. I took the plunge and slow cooked the joint at 215f for 5 scary hours and was relieved to find a nice juicy medium rare towards medium beef with a decent pink smoke ring. it surprised those that ate it anyway.

Just loving this smoker!

Does anyone have advice for smoking a joint of topside?

Thanks for any help
