IQ120 BBQ Temperature Regulator Kit with Small Adjustable Kamado Pit Adapter for Big Green Egg (Small, Mini), Char-Griller Akorn, Kamado Joe Jr., and Many Other Small Kamado Smokers Review
- Make sure this fits by entering your model number.
- The IQ120 pit controller precisely regulates the cooking temperature inside a charcoal pit for precision smoking! Based on the IQ110’s proven control technology, but with so many cool bells and whistles! As seen on Good Eats “Right on Que”. Alton Brown said: “It’s so cool !!”
- Digital display indicates actual cooking temperature and food temperature too! Knob is actually a digital encoder – rotate to select parameters or change values from user friendly interface, click to select. So much easier than a keypad!
- Programmable – automatically change cooking temp based on food temp, or based on a time delay! Set alarms to indicate food is done cooking or cooking temperature is out of range. 12 settable parameters in all! A large bi-color “cheat sheet” on the back lists all parameters and provides a short reminder of what it does. So easy yet so powerful!
- Leftmost display digit is a “virtual blower”, rotating when the blower is rotating, providing feedback on how hard the unit is working. Indicates when the fuel is running low! Optional lid-off detection algorithm prevents unit from feeding the fire even more after a lid-off event!
- Fits small Big Green Eggs, Chargriller Akorn, Grill Dome, and any kamado with sliding lower vent door height between 1-5/8″ to 2-3/8″. Everything included in kit for operation from AC power; operates from 12VDC cigarette lighter socket using optional adapter available separately.
The IQ120 connects to nearly any charcoal or wood fueled barbecue pit. Here’s the amazing part: You set the cooking temperature on the dial and it then regulates the cooking temperature just like a kitchen oven does. In fact, it regulates the cooking temperature BETTER than most kitchen ovens! And better than a kitchen oven, your foods cook in a smoky environment that is naturally moist resulting in foods that are juicy, fall-off-the-bone tender, and simply delicious. The IQ120 is installed on most kamados without tools. First, the adjustable adapter is slid into the lower vent door track. The IQ120 ‘s air hose is then connected to the adapter. Finally, the temperature sensor is attached to the cooking grate and plugged into the IQ120. The only thing left is to get hungry! Includes IQ120 Blower Box, Air Tube, AC Power Supply, 6′ Smoker Temperature Probe, 6’ Food Temperature Probe, Users Guide, and Small Adjustable Kamado Pit Adapter Kit. Fits small Big Green Eggs, Chargriller Akorn, Grill Dome, and any kamado with sliding lower vent door height between 1-5/8″ to 2-3/8″.
