Thank you for making this integration. Looking forward to making some cool automations/notifications based on this integration.

I have pitboss pro PB1100PSC2 listed in the supported devices. Since I don't have a bluetooth device within range I put a bluetooth adapter in my raspberry pi located close to the grill. I am running theengs gateway https://gateway.theengs.io I thought it would act as a bluetooth proxy for me. I am not sure how the esphome bluetooth proxy works but I thought it was compatible with the theengs gateway. Is there something I need to do to configure this integration to use the gateway? Am I supposed to install esp home and enable the proxy even though I don't have any esp home devices? Do I have to initiate a pairing for this to work? Just really not sure which way to go. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Describe the solution you'd like

Detect grills from the theengs gateway

Describe alternatives you've considered

buy a esp home mcu and use the regular proxy

Actually figured out theengs gw is not the way to go. Stuck on an esp32 bluetooth proxy worked right away.
