GE found a reason for the Internet of Things: Better barbecue



AUSTIN, Texas — Can data improve even the most low-tech of cooking methods, the barbecue? GE thinks the answer is a resounding yes, and it's brought a custom-built 14-foot smoker to SXSW Interactive to prove it.


In the storied history of barbecue in the South, there have been bigger barbecues, but never one as wired with technology. GE's smoker is laden with sensors, letting it detect temperature throughout the inside to within a tenth of degree Fahrenheit. Importantly, the chef doesn't need to open the cooker to check the heat, which can disturb the smoking process.
