Has anyone tried using roastmaster for tracking a smoker? I understand it is compatible with some Bluetooth thermometers. Can it handle a roast of 12 or 14 hours?

Sorry - Roastmaster limits a roast to 30 minutes.

Lots of folks ask about that possibility, though. I'm not so sure that I won't someday restructure things to allow long roast times like that. It would involve rethinking a few different areas, but that  concept interests me. I roast a lot of pork shoulders and butts for Tamales and BBQs - usually up to 9 hours at a time. I've often wished Roastmaster could track those myself. :)

Sounds like a new app opportunity to me! I couldn't find anything like it in the app store. I'd also wager there are a lot more meat cooks than coffee roasters.

iCelcius BBQ has dedicated software that might work for smoking. (I have only used it for grilling and roasting.) I don't know whether the app would work with another device -- but probably not. Also, it is not wireless.
