Understanding the results

• Optimal Smoking Time: This is the recommended time based on your meat type, weight, and smoking temperature.
• Estimated Internal Temperature: This is the target internal temperature for your meat to be fully cooked.
• Smoking Recommendations: Tips and guidance based on your smoking parameters.

Working Principle

The calculator uses a simple formula that considers the weight of the meat, a recommended time factor specific to each meat type, and an adjustment factor based on your smoking temperature. This helps ensure your meat is smoked properly and safely.

Important Notes

For safety, always use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of your smoked meat. The calculator provides an estimate, but actual cooking times may vary based on your smoker, meat thickness, and other factors.
