Signal/Billows Fail! Need help.
Last night at 10pm I threw my 9lb Pork Shoulder on the Egg. I set my Signals unit to 250 ambient and went to bed. Woke up this morning around 8am. Checked my app and the ambient temp was holding at 249.9 but the internal temp was reading 93. I was still half asleep and decided "well that ones ruined as it didn't get above 140. Guess I'll need to figure out something else for the 4th." I rolled over and went back to sleep. Got out of bed at 10 and app showed no changes. At 11 I decided I need to kill the fire and throw out the pork. I was in no rush to do anything when I "knew" it was shot.
However, when I opened the Egg I saw the pork had bark and was looking a little dry (Pic above). I shimmied the temp probe to make sure it wasn't touching bone. It was not. Still no change in readings. I then probed it with my thermapen one and got a reading in the 190s. Something was definitely off. I then unplugged/plugged the Signals probe into each of the 4 inputs. It didn't register on any of them. Next step I rebooted the Signals. Boom internal temp probe was reading in the 190s as well. But now the ambient was reading 215.
Now I'm in a quandary. My gut tells me to throw the thing out as originally planned. I say this because I have no idea how long it took to get over 140 and I don't have an accurate reading of what the ambient temp actually was.
Am I right to just throw it out? Thoughts?
