MODERATORS
This whole problem could be avoided by running the API on the grill itself, fully locally on the lan.
Seems like the grill is a dumb client that polls the cloud API to determine what action to take, and then the phone app pushes commands to the cloud for the grill.
An overly complicated setup that only forces you into their walled garden.
