The Pit Pal

Create consistently awesome BBQ with the help of your mobile Android device.

The Pit Pal is an all-inclusive BBQ app for your Android mobile device. It was built with the end goal of being able to help produce more consistent BBQ for backyard cooks, competitors, as well as caterers and restaurateurs.

The Pit Pal enables more consistent BBQ through the use of historical tracking of cooks and results taking into account common BBQ variables such as the temperature and duration of the cook, or the sauce/rub combination, or even the type of wood used or the weather at the time of the cook. Tracking these variables allows the pit master to look back at previous cooks and continue to cook and tweak variables until the perfect combination is hit. And then have the data to replicate that combination at any time.

This is a technique that teams on the BBQ competition circuit have been using for years only with a pen & paper or excel spreadsheets. The intent of The Pit Pal is to take this technique, leverage technology to improve on it, and help people with a passion for BBQ produce great food.

Features include:

* Easy to use interface for entering your cook and food details.

* Quick notes for one-click entry of common events such as mopping, adding coal, adding wood, saucing, foiling, etc.

* Ability to track history for multiple foods during a cook.

* Add temperatures for your cook and track via easy to read charts and graphs.

* Easily export your cooks to Word, Excel, XML, or Text files for sharing, backup, or offline viewing.

* Cook & food notifications for time & temperature.

* Ability to add detailed notes to your cook stored in a cook archive.

* Rate your cooks so you can track the outcome for future reference.

* Take pictures of your end product direct from The Pit Pal which automatically store in cook archive.

*** Direct integration with the BBQ Guru CyberQ WIFI (Not CyberQ Cloud) and STOKER WIFI ***

* Direct access to the guru and stoker web console.

TWO VERSIONS

--------------------------------

* FREE Backyard Edition – This is the baseline version. Does not include photos, charting, data export and other pro features. Max cook history of 5. Has a couple non-intrusive ads.

* PAID Competitor Edition – This is the full blown version with all functionality, unlimited cook history, no advertising, and access to all future enhancements. It also helps support further development of The Pit Pal and funds future enhancements. We think the price is extremely reasonable considering it probably costs more to buy a pen & paper these days :)
