This one would be a bit tricky to find.

You are correct though, what you are seeing is the Limit price associated with the Stop.

The reason there is a limit price associated with the Stop is that Stop orders are converted to Stop-Limit orders on the CME Group exchanges. Refer to the following:
Order Types: Stop Orders on the CME

Therefore, if you do not want the default location of the Limit order that the CME Group uses, then you would need to use a Stop-Limit order with your own limit value defined.
