Love the Turtle Toast test Mazie! Great explanation about the different uses. Especially for newbies it makes that confidence level jump up a lot! My Pro Series 2 has the same toast marks as your Austin XL. I love the different zones cause it lets you manage your cooks all that more!
Turtle Toast. Thanks for the great info. I just got a Savannah Onyx and your videos have been very helpful. Keep up the great work!
I’m happy to hear that!! Thanks for watching!
Turtle Toast thanks for the video new to the pit boss I have a masterbilt cabinet smoker excited about this one to try out
Turtle toast! I just picked up this pitboss at Walmart just have to put it together now! Excited!😀
Turtle toast.. ive been a chef 👩🍳 my entire career. I try to teach and learn something new every day. This turtle toast that you call, is something new that I can say is such a cool new thing I have just learned
Turtle Toast! Thanks for the entertaining review. I am looking to get a new smoker and I think this will be the one. Keep doing what you do!
Woohoo! I hope you enjoy it! Thanks for watching!
Great info about Turtle Toast! Keep the great videos coming!
You got it! Thanks for watching!
I love the toast idea! Im going to have to make some turtle toast one of these days! I have a vertical pitboss pro series V2 and love it! I have my thoughts where my hot spots are but the turtle toast will give me definite answers! Thanks for the great tip!
Yeah! It’s a great way to visually see where your hot spots are. Thanks for watching!
Great vid Mazie!! I'm an offset purist so don't tell anyone - but I am REALLY ready for a pellet smoker 🤣 I've been on the fence between the Pit Boss or the Z Grills and your video here sealed the deal - Pit Boss Austin XL is in the cart! Thanks again for the series you've posted on this pellet smoker.
Turtle Toast! This video was exactly what I was looking for and so I thank you. I owned the original Austin XL for 6 years. Long story short I need a new one now (my fault and we will leave it there 🙂). I just seen the new ones and wanted to research them. Seen this video and it helped so much. My old one had hot spots and that bread trick was great! I was seeing if they also fixed the smoke flavor too. I always felt the old one didn't produce enough smoke flavor. Hope this one is better! Great video's!
Another great video. Speaking of cooking things that are outside the normal "bbq" items, we love baking our pizza in our pellet smoker, we put them in as the temp is ramping up to get some of that wood fired smokey flavor (works with frozen too). One person's turtle toast is another person's excuse to make chicken salad sammiches. Have an amazing rest of your week.
That’s an awesome idea to take advantage of that extra smoke! I’m working on pizza for the channel, you’ll have to let me know how I do!
Great info!!
Just got my Austin XL excited and nervous lol. Love your channel
@joeg4984 and? How is the smoker function?
Was finally able to use it this past weekend and couldn’t be happier. Temperature stayed very consistent.
Turtle toast - I am new to pellet cooking and bought the Austin xl so I will be watching your videos. They are nicely done
You’re going to love it! Let me know if you have any questions!
Very interesting turtle toast. I just bought this same grill and did a bread test myself though I didn’t use nearly as much bread lol. Watching your video was very helpful in pinpointing all the hotspots. Thank you.
Hahaha I probably went over board on the bread 🫠. Thanks for watching!!! Enjoy the new grill 😎
Turtle toast. I saw on another guys channel that there is a small heat deflector you can get to deflect a lot of that heat from the burn pot to the left and right. He also found that the standard pit boss design allows for a lot of heat to come out the left side of the drip tray, then hitting the RTD probe making the grill run cooler overall than set point. They also make a plate the goes in place in the left side to fill that gap and allow heat to go around more naturally around the front and back. It seemed to help a lot for his pit. No matter how big you burn pot deflector, at higher heat there is always a hot spot right over it. Pit boss’ decision to have they sear feature and no standard deflector under really accentuates that hot spot in the middle. I’m glad you point it out because as a newbie many years ago I didn’t think much at all about radiant heat….and it DOES matter. Now I pretty much smoke everything on my top rack with a water pan under the lower grate sitting on the drip tray. Other higher heat cooks I do I the bottom or simple short cooks.
Thanks for the Video Mazie, It was informative. I have a Austin XL I got for the holiday's and the new one while nice it's not worth upgrading to me and I was thinking of it.
I replaced the controller with one from Pit boss so I have 5 degree increments now and love the thing. Thanks again and keep em coming Turtle Toast
The older version is a grill too! I used to have it and loved it. Thanks for checking out the video!
Turtle Toast! Great video! Just won this smoker!!
"TURTLE TOAST" along with the listening to the birds,if I move in the neighborhood you'll here me scaling the fence lol
Hahaha you can come on over, no fence scaling necessary 😂. Thanks for watching!
Turtle Toast, nice video showing the features of Austin XL Onyx
Turtle toast! Also I love that you finally got a bbq awning.
Why did it take me so long!? Thanks for watching!
Turtle Toast Mazie! Just picked up one of these that was under a tarp and marked "Clearance" at my local Walmart. Box was a bit beat up, but you couldn't beat the price. My first smoker and me thinks I'm going to love it. Been a Weber kettle guy for many moons and wanted to upgrade. Don't know if I'm going to dump my kettle grill, gas grill and my Big Green Egg just yet, but time will tell. So glad I found your vids! Will finish assembly tomorrow and do my burn in. Want to smoke a turkey breast for Turkey Day! The adventure begins!
I hope you got to smoke a turkey today!! You can’t beat the convenience of a pellet smoker 😊
I’m thinking of buying this grill today. Thanks for everything you do! Oh, by the way…. Turtle Toast! 😂
Thanks turtle toast. I like the toast test.
Turtle toast - thanks for the review. I’m gonna get me one.
Turtle Toast, Great video, good job!
The bread slices are a great way to show the heat distribution in the grill. Thanks for the video. Turtle toast.
I’m glad you found it to be helpful! Thanks for watching!
I did help and I'm so glad I found a device that fits over the burn pot to help spread the heat evenly throughout the cooking surface on amazon...thanks!
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Turtle toast and thank you for the awesome video!!
Thanks for the video, I am looking to buy one and have been researching how everyone is liking the smoker. Trutle toast
Turtle toast, thanks for taking the time!
Thanks for taking the time to watch!
Enjoying the turtle toast
Thank you we are buying one now Turtle Toast!!!
Turtle Toast! I'm looking to get 1 of these in about 7 hours to do some ribs for Mother's Day. With that being said.... Happy Mother's Day! Thanks for sharing the info.
Thanks so much! I hope the ribs turned out amazing!
Turtle Toast - fun video

Love turtle toast with peanut butter and peach preserves.
I just picked up the Austin XL Onyx Edition a few weeks ago. I only have a couple cooks on it so far but it has been great so far. I replaced a Louisiana LG900 that I had for 6 years. Turtle toast
Nice choice!! Thanks for checking out the video!!
Turtle toast. Love your videos looking to get one.
Thanks for watching! I hope you do!
Turtle Toast. Great video. Thanks for showing hot spots.

Tutle toast…. Great video..
Thanks so much 😊
Good info
This turtle toast was helpful
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Turtle toast. Thank you for the video
You’re welcome, thanks for watching 🙂
Definitely would get what's called a flame tamer for more even heat
Turtle toast! ❤
You make me laugh Mazie. Question have you used the fire pot diffuser to help fix the hot spots?
I actually find both my kamado joe and kettle Joe give the meat more smoke flavor than my Louisiana founder pellet grill. But it is alot easier to smoke and grill on the pellet grill. and with a 1200 the surfoce is also a lot larger.
haha. turtle toast game was neat. Would love to know if this one had the same air gap issue that the OG Austin XL had.
Turtle toast!!!
...I like turtles ;) Great video, let's gooo!
motha loving TURTLE TOAST ❤
Thanks for watching 😊
Turtle Toast. Thank you for the info.
You betcha. Thanks for watching!
Need some bacon, lettuce and tomato for your turtle toast. What's your take on the PB savannah? I like the fact you can dump the burn pot. Thought I'd ask you because I'm thinking about getting one. Thanks for the videos
I would love to have that feature! I’m bummed it’s not included on the Austin XL but it’s also not the worst thing to have to take out the grates to vacuum.
🎉🎉🎉 you answered my question. Thank you. Have you had any issues with temperature control? Ive seen a couple videos with someone saying if its in hot weather and in the sun. The grill has problems regulating the temp. Im in florida so i got all the sun and all the hot weather. TURTLE TOAST 😂
Thanks for watching!! I haven’t had any issues I found to be concerning. It might fluctuate 5-10 degrees but so does an oven. I’m in Utah so I’m dealing with a different climate but I’ve had no issues personally 😊
I am thinking about getting the Pitt boss Austin xl. Thank you for all your information. Let me know if you think I should take the plunge. Just subbed.
You should definitely take the plunge ✊🏼. It’s my favorite grill and hasn’t let me down yet!
Thank you!
Turtle toast, helpful.. I'll be doing the burn off today.. thanks
Nice!! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the bread, Turtle toast!
Thanks for watching 😌
Turtle toast!!!!
Thanks for watching!
Turtle toast, have a great day!
Thanks for watching!
Turtle toast- by the way the Ribeyes I did Saturday evening made me a hero - I told everyone that I did your wayish
I love hearing that! Thanks for watching!
@@bbqbymazie I've always been a Weber guy- since I got the pit boss a couple months ago, the Weber hasn't even been used
Turtle toast. Thanks!
Thanks for watching 😌
When you first prime the grill is there a smoke setting to get the grill to ignite or a low setting and how to get there
Turtle toast. Thank you.
Great video with turtle toast! Would you say you prefer the Austin XL over the Savanah?
I can’t really say which I prefer since I’ve never used the Savannah but I’ve owned the old XL and now the new and have never had a complaint with either one!
@@bbqbymazie Awesome! I've been debating on either one to get, it'll be my first pellet grill. Thank you!
Turtle toast thank you very much.
Turtle toast :] Sorry if this is a silly question, but I bought my dad this smoker for his birthday and he really wants to buy a cover for it. Do you know if the austin xl cover works for the onyx edition as well or if there is a separate cover? I tried googling it and looking it up online and I didn't have any luck.
Thanks, turtle toast!
I wish PB would do an upgrade to the PB Pro I have 10 degree increments but would like the 5 degree.
Turtle toast love the most. Thanks for the education
The pleasure is mine! Thanks for watching!
I just smoked cheese on my pit boss navigator. Is the Austin a better choice?
Turtle toast!
Just got my Austin xl yesterday... had a kc combo for 3 years. I noticed for the probe hole there was no rubber gasket. Is yours the same?
Turtle toast 👍
Turtle toast ❤
Thanks for watching!
I'm getting crazy temp swing like 50+ degrees. Pit boss has already sent out a new probe and panel. What's the deal with that?
Turtle toast!
So I am in the market for a new pit boss. My Traeger just died. I am looking at either the onyx Austin Xl or Savannah. Which one do you recommend? My wife doesn’t care either way. She just wants me to make a decision. 😂
The Savannah has a couple more bells and whistles, if you’re wife is giving you the green light just go with the most expensive 😌😂. But really you can’t go wrong either way!
what kind of power does it use is it a normal house hold plug or 220 or something else
Bread crumbs out of that turtle toast, time for fried chicken or a fish fry. Nice
Hahaha that’s what I should have done!! Thanks for watching!
Turtle 🐢 Toast!
Thanks for watching 😌
👍
I called Pitt boss myself because I have the Savannah and they said you can't update to Bluetooth and wifi control because they didn't come out with it yet.
They're wrong haha. Here's the direct link to the upgraded controller!pitbossgrills.77jaha.net/XYNa3X
That's the page I took them to when I talked to them and they told me no and if if I order one it would be the same one that I originally have for my Savannah
@@bigblack262black8 sorry I missed the part where you said you had the Savannah. Your grill should spread connect to the app, is it not working?
Turtle toast - Does it have a fan?
Turtle toast 😊
Thanks for watching!
Turtle toast…
How many slabs of ribs can you get on the cooking surface?
Turtle Toast!
Thanks for watching!
