New 3D digital never attains target finish temp

[jaka]

Received new 3D digital. Seasoned it. Started smoking Pork Tenderloins at 225 and finish temp of 150 degrees. Should have taken 2-1/2 to 3 hours max. I pulled the loins at 5 hours with the probe temp never reaching higher than 143 degrees. The meat was tender, juicy, and cooked perfectly but I'm concerned that I never reached 150 degrees.

'Evening Ken - Not sure why the D did not get to your desired internal temp.  Were you able to take a temp reading with a separate meat thermometer to see how far off your unit was?  Might want to shoot Steve an email and describe your problem.

Thanks, I'll do that.
