Big Green Thermometer in my Big Green Egg

My thermometer came in today. I enlarged the hole with a masonry bit on slow. I drilled it from the front then the back so as not chip it out. It was still a little tight, so I ran a Dremel around the hole till the probe fit. Because I didn't bulkhead mount it, the probe doesn't stick in any further than the original one did.

this works even better and doesn't involve negating the warranty since he modified his dome -

Yeah, you're missing the fact that the replacement models are the same size as the original. I wanted a larger face (the largest) so that I can monitor my overnight cooks from inside the house. -

(??!!!) I can read your thermom from inside MY house! :woohoo:
Only joshin', I think it's a waay cool thermometer!
Good on you for thinking outside the box!
Just remember to keep the stock thermometer so you can use it when you (WILL) someday start doing pizza's.....! -
Doesn't that void the warranty? Nice display size though.

Wow...could have bought a bigger one? :laugh: :laugh:
