I've been using a Whirlypop on my outdoor barbecue grill (no smoke worries). It's working for me. I know I should probably geek out on the temperature reads and roast profiling, but when you do it every week you get to know your Whirlypop pretty well and can do it by sight. It got a little bit tricker as we transitioned from summer to winter and the outdoor temperature changed, but I've adjusted. Still can't do it when it's raining, though!
Hi Erik and welcome to Homeroasters! I like to pull out the lower tech roasters without thermometry and motors as often as possible to see if I'm able to still produce a good roast with them and while they don't always turn out stellar, neither do my high tech roasters. I enjoy the low tech more than on my tricked out drum roaster any day just because of the closer connection to the sights, sounds and aromas.
