quote:How do you keep the probe cable from getting all twisted ?
Use a wireless remote thermometer. Put the probe in the meat. Run the probe wire along the spit rod toward the handle end attaching it to the spit rod every so often by wrapping it with a hunk of wire. Run the probe wire out the slot in the lid and connect the probe wire to the transmitter and the transmitter to the spit handle. The only catch is that you'll have to wallow out the bearing on the handle end so the wire will fit between the spit rod and the bearing. This can be done with a rattail file.
