DigiQ DX2 BBQ Guru – a review

Out of the box
Unpacking the Digi Q is both satisfying and disappointing. The outer packaging is good but inside all the bits are in press sealed bags and lose. The manual is a printed with just a paper cover. However the Diqi Q itself feels weighty and well made and comes in a nice cloth bag to protect it. I was a little disappointed to find an American power adapter, I’d really have liked a UK plug and 12V transformer that would have easily plugged into a standard UK weatherproof socket. Instead I have a Uk to US adapter with the transformer plugged into that, clunky.BBQ Guru pieces
The first thing to do is slide in the BBQ Guru adapter door. This should be done from the left hand end of the track, leaving the normal draft door in place. To make it easier I removed the rubber cover of the stop tab (my older Egg doesn’t have a rubber cover). You can then slide the normal door right up to or even over the adapter. The adapter comes with a silicon bung allowing you to shut off the egg at the end of cooking without removing the adapter door which will be hot.
