Frequently Asked Questions

What is 88 °C in °F?

88 °C equals 190.4 °F.

What is the formula?

Multiply by 9/5, then add 32. So 88 × 9/5 + 32 = 190.4 °F.

Do I need to be exact?

For pit temperatures, no — a smoker swinging 15 °F either side of target is normal and fine. For internal temperatures, yes: the difference between medium rare and medium is about 10 °F, which is well inside the range where rounding matters.
