Woke up to -4 temps. Started my ribs so they would be ready by the time the Chiefs game starts at noon.
No problem! Amerique is humming away.

Sounds like a good day for ribs.
Gotta love those Ameriques.
Gotta love those Ameriques.
Sorry about the game though, probably not the outcome you wanted. I've used my Amerique in that kind of weather as well, people think I'm nuts. I'm a Jets fan and this and many others haven't been good seasons. lol
My 066 lives outside here Idaho. We haven't been down to -4 degrees yet but have had snow on the ground since just after the first of December. I did 40 pounds of pork butts, and 50 pounds of Brisket in 2 different smokes for a party on the 8th of December. I had to warm up the controller for both smokes. I got away with just turning the unit on and leaving it for awhile. I did a ham for New Years Day, and it was cold enough that this trick didn't work. I had to use a hair drier on it. I love my 066 but like everything else, you have to get used to using them when it is cold.
out here in so cal. we don't have a -4 problem, but I always preheat the smoker to temp I'm cooking at before putting meats in. just in case I have to burn anything off..sp
He's referring to using the smoker at -4 degrees weather and that in southern CA, he doesn't have freezing temps to worry about.
