BBQ Guru Controllers & Fans for Rock-Steady Temps
Dial in precise pit control with the latest from BBQ Guru - smart, rugged temperature solutions that keep your smoker locked on target while you focus on flavor. From compact, set-and-forget units to app-connected powerhouses, a BBQ Guru temp controller paired with the right fan gives you repeatable results on kamados, kettles, offsets, and drum smokers alike.
BBQ Guru DigiQ, CyberQ, and UltraQ - What’s the Difference?
The classic BBQ Guru DigiQ line (including the BBQ Guru DigiQ DX2 and BBQ Guru DigiQ DX3) delivers rock-solid, no-nonsense temperature management with intuitive controls and audible alarms. Step up to BBQ Guru CyberQ (also seen as CyberQ BBQ Guru) or the modern BBQ Guru UltraQ for Bluetooth/Wi-Fi connectivity, cloud graphs, and multi-probe support - ideal for long brisket alternatives, ribs, poultry, and weekend feast lineups. Hosting a small gathering or traveling light? The compact BBQ Guru PartyQ offers battery-friendly control in a simple package.
Airflow That Matters: Pit Viper & Pit Bull
Pair your controller with the right fan to match your cooker size and style. The versatile BBQ Guru Pit Viper (often listed as the BBQ Guru Pit Viper fan) is a favorite for kamados and kettles, supplying steady airflow without overshooting. Running a large offset or cabinet? The high-output BBQ Guru Pit Bull fan moves serious air for fast recovery after lid lifts and stable temps on big cooks. Either way, a quality BBQ Guru fan turns your pit into a cruise-control BBQ machine.
Probes, Mounts, and Must-Have Accessories
Accuracy starts at the grate. Stock up on BBQ Guru probes for pit and meat temps, plus high-heat cables, adapters, and universal mounts to fit your setup. Many kits include sliding vents or quick-fit plates for popular cookers (think kamado, kettle, and barrel), so your BBQ Guru controller installs cleanly and seals tight for consistent airflow.
Setup & Use: From Unbox to Smoke
Attach the fan plate, connect your BBQ Guru controller, place a pit probe at grate level, and set your target temp. Close down native vents so the controller is the “brain” of the fire. For multi-course cooks, use additional food probes to monitor doneness while the controller maintains the pit. Prefer to monitor from the couch? CyberQ/UltraQ models push alerts and graphs to your phone in real time.
Care, Cleaning & Reliability
Keep intakes clear and fans free of grease dust for best performance. Wipe housings after long cooks and store probes coiled, not kinked. (If you’re searching “BBQ cleaning guru,” that’s a different rabbit hole - here we focus on control hardware.) With basic care, your BBQ Guru system will outlast seasons of smoke, rain, and weekend marathons.
