Stop Joule at end of cooking Cycle

Hello,

I've been using Joule for almost 2 years, (I thought it was so good I bought it for my 2 sisters and 2 very good friends) The App is great! When you introduced add your food now and it will start the count-down to when your food is done is great but, you could have gone a little further, like adding an option to stop Joule at the end of the count-down. I live in Memphis TN, I spend quite a bit of time at Norfolk lake in middle AR. I frequently start my steaks or chops from the middle of the Lake(Thank's for good cell phone coverage) The best laid plans don't always pan out, I'm planing on eating at 6:30 and everyone agree's, hold that thought... Someone has a boat Issue and we have to tow them, or we are having such a great time that we stay out two hours longer, we forgot about the steak or chops and now they are not premium, so the texture is a little too rough or tough, being able to stop the cook might save the protein!!

Thanks for a great product!

You wouldn't want Joule to stop, doing so it would put your food in the danger zone below 130°. At least with it running your food is still eatable, even if not optimal.

also...."premium" or not, the protein would not become tough...quite the opposite. The texture would begin to soften. You probably have an hour or two leeway with steaks, before the texture degrades too much. In fact, you might enjoy the "softer" texture. The good news is that they won't overcook, in the sense that they won't go from "medium rare" to " well done". I would just start the steaks when the boat is on the trailer. You would probably need to get other dinner items ready when you get home anyway. By the way, are the steaks being handled safely before the cook begins; that is, while you are out for the day? Are you ensuring they remain out of the danger zone until the cook?
