Great video. Thanks for sharing your mods that you completed.
That downpipe attached to the exhaust stack is an interesting idea, on my Austin XL i usually see the smoke billow from the exhaust vent and the outlet for the drip pail.
I like my pellet grill/smoker but I didn't exactly do my homework on them, i thought the pellets were purely acting as woodchips but i soon learned they are the fuel source etc and i have found the smoke flavor to be lacking.. with a smoke tube and some added chips in concert i have gotten better results but apparently the pellets burn soo efficiently that you dont get that flavor from the wood not properly combusting..
Its a love/hate for me, i have a gas 5 burner grill, vertical propane smoker that uses wood chips and the pellet grill . I do find that I can use each of these tools to perform the tasks needed.
From gas grill to pellet grill i do change the cooking methods ie burgers on gas are hot and fast which I have to be readily available, if im feeling lazy that day i can throw burgers on the pitboss in smoke mode and let em go for an hour vs timing them for like 4-5 mins and then flip and move to indirect heat etc.
All 3 of my grill/smoker equipment are acceptable on my wooden patio deck as 2/3 are propane and the pellet smoker electric so its nice. If I had a charcoal grill/offset, ai definitely wouldn't be using it on my back patio.
All in all I am disappointed that I didnt do my homework because i thought a pellet grill/smoker was gona produce the same flavor as an offset etc but now I look past what it cannot do and see the positive attributes that it does possess.
End of the day I feel like I have 3 pieces of cooking equipment that can cater toy demands and my mistake was thinking the pellet grill was going to be a be a replacement for all of them.
Great video! In the beginning, I had wished we would have gotten the original 1000 but decided to get the 1150. It was ok in he beginning but once the controller was sent and updated, it has been working like a champ!
So happy to hear your uo and running and no more problems!
Thanks for this!
On the heat deflector for me when i do burgers i let it run and the reasoning is all that burger far essentially coats the defleector pan and i usually try to wipe it off.. where the top deflector covers the main grate what i have found is it gets rusted because said grease and wiping to clean doesnt coat/season it.
Nice video bro. Very informative. Btw That heat deflector mod isn’t necessary anymore because there’s that black plate on the probe now. Before there was no plate there so it was def necessary but not anymore.
Good video . No problem with my 1100 too
I did and I’m not looking back!…..Fat and satisfied!
Good vidéo , what was your burn off temps ? Also the round top part under the grill in the center there is slits do you cover does with aluminum , Just bought a 1150 pit boss pro serie . Witch you can open and close the slits.
Thanks !
What's the diameter and length of that hvac elbow. REALLY like that modification!
good vid dood!!
Where did you get the felt? I would like to do the same update…
If I had more to cook for I'd probably would but I'm just cooking for 4
Curious how many amps the grill pulls. PB makes zero mention of the draw requirements of the grills they sell so it’s all a guessing game. I’m lucky enough to reach an outlet but sometimes in the heat I would love to move it over under an umbrella..
Had to give mine up. Didnt work when i first got it and pitboss didnt have a fix at the time. Switched to the camp chef woodwind 36 and never looked back
I'm sorry to hear that. Well what ever you smoking with smoke on!!
You mentioned that the controller on your buddy's 1100 tends to put more smoke out. Is that compared to the updated 1150 controller or the 1150 controller before the update? Thanks in advance!
Before and after the updated it still seems to be more output from the 1100
Can you share the name of where you got that left side half moon deflector plate, I'm not able to find him on Google. Thanks.
Smoke like a boss.. goggle and will pop up link to online store
I've been thinking of getting one of the competition series 1250.. but the modification you made on the lid would be more difficult on the 1250 since it slides open... I wonder if the 1250 door seals better? Or would it be best to get an 1150 so the door could be sealed?
What did you use to season your grill with inside and outside?
Can of olive oil spray. Outside is not coated with anything. I just keep the outside whipped off with some simple green cleaner which is safe to use.
What is the diameter of that down pipe that you use 4 inch? And what is the link to where you just ability do you have a link for it by chance
3 inch I do believe.
Please be sure to checkout our other videos on our channel. We really appreciate your support.
Did that heat deflector come in a pair or you have to order to of them? I want some for mine
They come Single
Do you need two?
Where did u get the lava rock gasket felt from
Amazon
@@reddemonspeed31 thank u for replying 👍🏽👊🏽
Did you send in your controller yet?
I have not yet
Will you have to send it in right out of the box for an update? Debating getting this 1150. Trying to do my research before making my decision!
I haven’t even bought my 1150 yet and I called pit boss and ask about the controller and I’ve already created an account and sent me a controller before I even bought the smoker
@@Gonethinkin tips on how can I go about doing that who to call ? Info please and pointers,thanks
@@cii5korea217 al I did was call 480-923-9630 and told them I was buying the 1150 and heard about controller issues and that I didn’t want to be without a controller and he created an account for me and shipped the flashed controller out. I received email verification of shipping shortly thereafter
Please share your experiences down below
Isn’t that elbow made of galvanized steel? If it is, that couldn’t be more toxic!!
