Has anyone successfully upgraded one of their electric smokers to use an off the shelf available Thermostat controller. I love that I can go as low as 100 deg to do things like jerky etc. But i would also like to go as high as 500 deg so i can use this to bake with. Having the ability to take a pie or any type of baked goods to the next level with some smoke flavor is what I'm looking to achieve. would the heating element need to be upgraded as well?
