I'm trying learn this since my husband passed away. Thank you. I feel a bit more encouraged now.
I’m sorry for you loss you got this tho 🤞🏽
@@tylerlorence6209 Thank you.
Why does everybody edit out the most important part? Which is turning on, setting temp and/or priming it 🤦🏾♂️
I bought a Pit Boss After watching your videos. . . . ..I've had Webers, propane, and smokers, but this pit boss I got ((At WalMart!!) is the Bomb. I would not have bought it if I hadn't watched your videos. You have done a great job showing us all what needed to be said. Thanks, Friend!
Thank you James, I appreciate the kind words and your comment. I too love my Pit Boss as it’s one awesome cooker/grill.
big question. does this one heat to 225? or is it just 200-250-275-300 and so on..
reaper22387 it has a 225 setting on it.
I just got one too a couple of weeks ago. I took out the two outside screws on the grate in the hopper and left the front two in. Now I can use the front two like a hinge and swing the grate out of the way giving me much better access to the hopper and much easier to change pellets and get out excess dust. Pork belly bacon is almost done so I'll just say, smoke on my friend and enjoy.
Just fired mine up for the second time and it was taking forever to smoke/fire, thought I’d done something wrong. Thanks for the Vid, fights are on and so is the Tri Tip!!!
I have the same grill and I have a couple thoughts. First, if you'll run the temp up to 475, you'll have better luck cleaning the grates. 200 simply isn't hot enough to kill the bad things that grow on a grill when you're not using it. Second, if you'll look on the lefthand side by the hopper, you'll see a little hole. That's for your probe wires. I saw you had them in the back. That works if you've got the wire for it, but the one in the front makes it easier.
Thank you for your comment John. I clean the grill after every cook. When I pull everything off the grates that when I turn it up to high and scrape it off after 15 minutes or so of burning on high. I just scrape the grill quick before I cook also. I use the grill almost everyday so there’s no time for stuff to grow on the grates. I know the probe hole is on the left side by the hopper. I do use it when I’m using one probe. I just let the second one hang under the door if I’m using two as the ThermoWorks probes are too thick to fit through the hole together. I’ve been thinking of making the hole bigger and adding a WSM rubber grommet for the probes. Thanks again for your comment and the info you’ve given.
I run mine through the dishwasher after every use. I spray them with a little food release before reusing them.
Thank you so much for showing this old lady how to use her Pit Boss
Thanks for the video man! Just picked one up and the guide was a bit confusing. Im a visual learner and I appreciate these kinds of videos!
You’re welcome Jim. Congrats on getting your new Pit Boss. I have a few more videos on my channel to show how I do things with my grill that might help you out.
Direct and to the point. Thumb up!
Thanks Yard Dog! I made this video as simple as I could just to demonstrate the easy use of it. I had no idea I’d get as many views on it as I have so far. I’m just glad it’s been helping people out.
I like how you fed your temp probes through the back, instead of under the door.
Thanks Tom! I’ve since added a smoke stack to the grill so now I run them under the door cause I sealed up the holes in the back. If I was planning on just dedicating a probe to this grill then I would rig something different over one of the hole to accommodate the probe wire.
I might have forgot to mention the grill does have a hole on the side of the cooking chamber for probes but it depends on what type of thermometer you have if it’ll fit more then one. I know I can’t fit more then one of the ThermoWorks probes through it at once
Very nice. The lawnmower really muted your voice. Nevertheless, you were very informative. Im presently shopping for a new pellet grill. My old Traeger finalky bit the dust and I am hesitent to pay them top dollar for another one. Pit Boss looks like a great replacement at a price point I can handle easily.
Have you ever had problems with a stuck auger, I discovered it's a bad habit to leave a grill full of pellets out to the winter elements. Here in Oregon we have lot of moisture in the air in Winter and the pellets can bloat from ammbient moisture and jam the auger, which mens you have to take the assembly apart to clean it out. Best to keep the grill out of the elements in Winter. Hard lesson I learned.
Man great job, love it
Just one thing , I use to use that metal brush to keep my grill clean but had a friend that did the same thang and got a tiny piece of brush in the meat and almost killed him, be careful
Thanks so much for the video
Pit boss went above and beyond. they even added a small engine to help disperse the pellets . 😄 Seriously though that was perfect timing. Great overview, I am currently shopping for a new grill and this video helped alot .
Thanks for the kind words Marc. I’m glad this helps you out. I hope you get yourself a great grill that you’ll love for years. If there is anything further you’d like to know feel free to email me and I’d be glad to help you the best that I can. Thanks for your comment
Thank you. I was a little confused after initial priming and burn off. You took care of that. Plus I didn't know the pellets could be changed out. I always had electric smoker. I see with this one you don't get constant smoke.
I have this same one. I modified it myself, added a smoke stack plus an extra part for more pellets with a fan to blow more smoke in. Also have a smoke stick(highly recommend no matter what smoker you use) for additional smoke. Definitely a good starter smoker, but I ended up having to upgrade.
I have a feeling he wanted to say more about the neighbors lol
My neighbors are good only you never know when they decide to make noise as they can’t see when I’m filming a video
@@paulsq_ ha ha I figured as much bud I was joking anyway. Good video!
All good Timothy, I figured that. Thanks for watching
Yes i think so too 😂
I bought one of these pellet smoker and I'm absolutely amazed with it how fast it Cooks how i Fishing to cook and how even the smoke is absolutely love it I love smoking stuff anyways and this just makes it a lot easier thanks for the video it was an awesome video
Thank you Marvin, I appreciate it. I’m glad you’re loving your Pit Boss. I love mine also for its convenience. Here’s a link to one of my videos that might help you out if you don’t already know. Thanks for watching.
th-cam.com/video/pt3zM1lKx4A/w-d-xo.html
Was wondering why you covered the broiler plate with foil? The owners manual says NEVER do that. (at least mine does)
I thought my husband was the only one to have multiple grills on the deck. Funny. Thanks for the information.
Your welcome for the info. My wife doesn’t like that I have so many grills and I’m always looking to add another one to my collection. Your husband and I aren’t the only ones with multiple grills on the deck lol there are lots more like us. I figured BBQ is a good hobby cause the outcome is very tasty. Thanks for watching and I’m glad it helped you
I'm with your husband and Paul. A man can never have enough grills!
my lexington takes for ever to get up to temp. but it works great when it get there.
I really like their pellets.......good quality and at a Great price! Metal On!
Yep!........GB Rocks!!!! I here Ya'......I'm cracking them too! \m/
Bro I'm using one today for Mothers day🌹, first time using, so I needed your help..Thanks😎
Just got one of these at walmart on clearance for $200 can't wait to use it
Hey Alfonso, you scored that at a great price. I’m sure you’re going to love using it. Congrats on your new Pit Boss
Is there a tutorial on the vent sliders down inside and the damper use ??? We have a 700T1 and it no longer smokes but does cook the items.
I’m a complete noob-when you’re done smoking your food, what’s the best way to turn it off? Are there any precautions to take?
Thanks for the Review I have been thinking about getting one but wasn't sure how they worked...I see a pellet smoker in my near future :)
You’re welcome. I haven’t done a review yet on this grill but have been thinking of doing one. I’m sure you’ll love it as much as I do if you get one.
Great grill!! FYI - do not use foil to catch grease!!! When I did it caused a fairly large fire from the drippings,ruined the paint (bubbled up), and it also causes the heat to back up into the hopper, and almost caught the pellets on fire in the hopper.. yikes!!! :/ they smoldered, so no disaster, but if they catch and you are forced to douse the fire, you'll ruin your grill. I got lucky this time, so word to the wise: don't use foil to catch the drippings!!!!
Hey Kellen! These grills are great. I’m sorry to hear about the mishap you had. I don’t use the foil to catch the grease I simply run it over the deflector plate and follow the same shape so the grease runs across it and goes to the grease bucket. I’ve been doing this for over a year now and haven’t had any issues with this method. Maybe you didn’t line the deflector plate correctly and had the grease buildup causing a fire.
@@paulsq_ ahhhh. That's probably where I went wrong! I didn't make sure to press it against the drip plate.
So others... Learn from my mistake, and follow Paul's method to make sure the grease follows the curve, press the foil down against the drip plate, and drips down to the channels and bucket.
Next time I'll make sure to be diligent about this!
I just got the same model. Going to use it tomorrow for the first time.
Hey Mark, congrats on your new Pit Boss. I’m sure you’re gonna love the grill as much as I love mine. Just have fun with it and enjoy everything you create on it.
I like how the grass is being mowed wile your doing the video
Cannot get my Temperature setting to regulate heat. Grill only been used 3 times. Any suggestions?
Hey don’t know if you will do this but I have the same grill and on the hopper on the left side where the screws that hold the grate in on the top I took those out put small threaded bar that runs from one side to the others through the holes and notched the threads out of the grate so all I have to do is tip it up and I can reach in to scoop the pellets out
Thanks for the tip/mod you’ve done to the hopper. I won’t be doing it, as I only use the competition blend pellets. I’m sure this might help someone else who reads through comments though.
I have never dissed like a grill more than this one.I start out and smoke and I let it catch fire and burn for about 5 to 10 minutes. Then I said it to the temperature. I said it to 300 degrees and it never reaches 300 degrees and the auger seems to stay on all the time. I have never had so much trouble with a grill.this is my first pellet grill and probably my last
I just got one of these smokers. Very helpful video. Thanks man!
Your welcome John!
I really enjoyed this video because of how informative it is. Definitely subscribing, thank you!
It would be nice if you started with the basics of how to prime the auger setting the temperature some directions say put it on smoke before you turn the power on other say it doesn’t matter. We have only used ours four times. Two of the four times when I started it up the temperature kept rising to over 500°. So I had to shut it down and start all over and then it would work. What could I be doing wrong
Just inherited a model PB with a house I bought, looks like it has never been cleaned!!
I’ve never cooked on a pellet grill, I just got the Weber propane, the WSM and my little robot grill. That’s a way cool looking grill though. Great video Paul and thanks again for the rib candy challenge.
They’re very simple to use it almost feels like you’re not even BBQing lol. Glad you were part of the rib candy challenge. Thanks for your support. Cheers
Paul’s Q It was fun, made me think a bit which I like. I’ll support ya anytime.
Thanks for the video! We were just given one of these and are about to use it and wanted to see how to fire it up. Gave a follow for more smoking videos. I’m a smoke daddy now!
Thanks Paul! Looks super easy to use. I'm strongly considering getting one and found this to be helpful.
Your welcome! If you do get one of these you’ll love it, and wonder why you didn’t get one sooner.
Nevermind about the costco question on the rib video...I'm apparently watching these in the wrong order! Hahaha
can you attach a stove pipe to the outlet on top?
Good morning, purchased this one a few days ago. May I ask why you have the foil under the grates?
Nice job, Paul. This will come in handy when I get a pellet smoker.
Glad it might/will help you one day. If you get one just remember not to have too many it’s that easy lol. Cheers
Why do you do use the temperature prob that comes with it
You can never have too many grills aye!!! Good god man how grills do you need ???
Hey Ahmed! You can never have to many grills if you have the room for them. I like having options for cooking as I use everyone for different purposes. I’d still like to get one or two more so I have all my bases covered. Do I need this many no. I could get by with just one but since I have the room why not.
Have you had any issues with the auger feeding more pellets than it's burning? I've had it happen to me 3 times .. and it's a hassle taking everything off, cleaning it out, and resuming cook
What I u use in the grill it self? Lava rocks?
Seems very easy i must say.
I think you did a great buy Paul!
Thanks Lars! I appreciate that brother. Cheers
What’s going on when there is hardly any smoke in the cook chamber?
Do you have a foil pan in there?
Fyi people dont fill hopper full unless long cook. Damp pellets dont burn well?
To let you know I fill my hopper all the time and leave the pellets in it. I’ve never had any kind of issues with the pellets getting damp ever. I’m not telling people to do this I’m just letting others know that if they do, chances are it won’t affect the pellets in any way.
Including the Pit Boss, you have three grills on your patio. You must like to grill out.
I love to grill out. I would do it every day if it weren’t so cold in the winter here. Including the Pit Boss I actually have 5 grills on my patio, which I’m always looking to add more. Thanks for watching Cheers
How much smoke does this put off? Putting on a covered deck. Worried about it smoking us out.
Thank you I’m about to get one and this helps so I know how to use the pit boss
Your welcome Amy
Out of curiosity.
For the sear zone area, should I close it or leave it open when smoking?
It comes with that steel plate to adjust, I’m just not sure if it should cover the hopper or if I should leave it open.
For smoking you should leave it closed and fully covered
Did you put tin foil at bottom of grill to prevent the tough cleaning or is the cleaning hard? I’ve noticed all the meat dripping would fall at the bottom and leave ugly stains. I just got mine, and came across your video. Trying to get some pro tips lol thanks for helpful video :)
I use foil on the bottom to make for an easier cleanup other then that it serves no purpose
Thank You for your time, from Phoenix Arizona, Sorry your neighbor was not so cooperative for you ;
You’re welcome Lord Sigurd Thorolf. Some weekends are unpredictable with when the neighbors will be doing things in their yards. I try and find ways to jump in between when they’re making noise so it doesn’t effect the video, only that doesn’t always work. Thanks for watching and your comment
My husband tried to use ours last night and the motor ran, but the temperature would not go over 60 deg F. What has happened? It has only been used twice before this! Thanks
Hi Anita, I’m not sure what happened with your grill. Maybe you just heard the fan running and the auger wasn’t working to feed the pellets to the fire pot. Or maybe you had a flameout and didn’t realize it, everything will still be working at that point except no flame burning the pellets thus leaving the fire pot full of pellets. If that’s what happened clean out the pellets before trying to restart the grill as all those pellets will create a good combustion that will throw out a huge flame. I know this happens from experiencing it myself with my grill and learned from my mistake. Hope this helps you out in some way
I do Sliced potatoes alot in a alum. Foil 2 inch deep x 8x12 inch Tray. Aprox. 35 mins on my Propane grill. Is this still possible in a pellet grill.
This is definitely possible to do on these pellet grills. I’m sure you’d love how much use you can get out of these grills.
Do you find the barrel thermometer reads like 100 less then the temp its supposed to be
To be honest I never pay attention to the lid thermometer but I’ll see what it’s reading next time I use the Pit Boss. I know from before it reads the same as the digital control panel and I also know that’s not the accurate temp in the grill.
I have a dumb question; I have a Traeger Texan that is too large for what I tend to cook for just the Wife and I. Can you tell me the dimensions of the grill grate? I'm trying to decide between this 700 and the 500 model. Thank you
Hey Edward, the main grill grates measure from left to right 24.5” and front to back 19.5” giving you a total of 477.75 sq inches of cooking space. The upper grate/rack makes up the rest to equal 700” sq inches total cooking space/area. I do believe on the smaller grill it’s only 456” sq inches of cooking space total, and it has a much smaller hopper on it. Hope this helps you out in making a decision.
I have one and I was hoping that I could find a video about the timer and so on. Because my smoker cuts off after about 30 minutes. I've never been able to use it yet.
Not sure if there is something wrong with it are I'm not fully understanding the operation of it
Any help would be appreciated
Hey Terry! It sounds to me like you might have a defective grill. I don’t have any issues like your saying and I know there is no timer on these grills. Basically you should be able to start the grill on the smoke setting and once it fires up fully set it to whatever temperature you desire and it’ll run on it till you shut the grill off or lose power or run out of pellets. I’m not even sure where to begin troubleshooting with it as I don’t have the grill in my possession to see what exactly is happening and go from there.
@@paulsq_ do you have to put the probes inside I'm not sure how it would even be able to hold a steady heat. If I set it let's say on 275% it will go over to like 350% so it's like a back & forth messing with the heat. Then 45 to hour it shuts off. But you can still hear the motor running
The same thing has happened to mine I had to call pit boss they said I have a bad controller waiting on it!!!!!!
Do you leave the sliding grill plate open or closed? I see you wrapped yours in foil.
good video straight up and to the point
Thank you! I appreciate your feedback
What's the bucket for that is hanging on the side? And did you put tinfoil down underneath and does it work well doing it that way? I just got a used one and never used this before. Thanks
The bucket that’s hanging is the grease collector. I put foil under the cooking grates as it gives me an easier cleanup after the cook. The foil serves no other purpose and does not affect the grill in how it runs
Which temp do we use? My probe 1 and probe 2 are reading at 246-260F but my actual temperature is reading at 220F also my dome thermometer is reading at 250
Measure the temperature of your meat. That is the priority
You didn’t think to re try the next day after they were done cutting? I can barley hear you
I want one they have them at our local ACE hardware I think I might make the plunge
Asshole neighbor, we're rollin' film over here!
Who are you talking to?
Never mind I got what your saying now lol. Yeah it’s hit and miss with the neighbors here when they feel like making noise
you should do the voice over for the movie trailers !!!!
Is the fan supposed to keep running while the pellets are still burning even after turning off the power?
Good question, yes the fan is meant to run after you turn the dial to off or press the power button. That’s just the grill going through it’s shutdown cycle. My grill takes anywhere from 2-5 minutes to shutdown. I don’t think it mentions in the owners manual about the shutdown cycle. Thanks for watching and your question
It looks like you have foil on the inside can you show a video of what it’s for
It’s just for easier cleanup. The foil serves no other purpose. The link below is a video I have on it
th-cam.com/video/8Zwkts57yHE/w-d-xo.html
Did this come with. The digital Thermometer with the 2 probes or did you buy that extra I read description on the classic 700 it says comes with internal meat probes
It has a digital thermostat and 2 ports for meat probes. They only give you one meat probe with it. The grey one you see in the video is my Thermoworks Smoke that is something I bought and doesn’t come with it.
Appreciate the video. How do you do a smoke vs a grill if you don't want the food to taste like smoke?
Thanks for the kind words. Usually if I’m smoking ribs or brisket I’ll just leave the grill on the smoke setting for 2-3 hours. If I wanted to grill some chicken breasts for example I would just start the grill up and once it fires set it to the desired cooking temp maybe 250-300 and you’ll get hardly no smoke taste. You’ll still get a hint of it but you’ll smell the smoke more then you’ll taste it if anything. If you’re cooking at a higher temp you’ll get even less to none at all. Hope this helps you out. If you have any other questions feel free to write them here or check the about section on my channel to email me and I’ll help you to the best of my knowledge
@@paulsq_ Thanks a lot! So the "smoke setting" just means lower temps? I just ordered mine and am watching your brisket video. Really appreciate you responding. Very informative.
Your welcome. Basically yes the smoke setting is lower temps. Now there is a P setting for controlling the smoke and temps but I’ve just started to play around with it and not sure just yet how to explain that. I’ll I can say is the higher the P number set the more smoke you’ll get and lower temp and the lower the P number set less smoke and more heat. Congrats on your purchase you’re gonna love it.
I have to wrap bring mine up to temperature it seems to fall off how do I stop that and keep a constant temperature
I’m not fully understanding your question here Gary. What keeps falling off?
@@paulsq_ the temperature
Thank you I will be purchasing one
Julien from TPB shaved his head, quit drinking and got a PIT BOSS !
Paul I tried what you told me to do about checking the temp on my Pit Boss. I'm getting different readings. Help! Dome and oven thermometer is reading 300 degrees and the digital is reading 400 on top and 425 on the bottom number. I wanted to send the pics but couldn't figure out how. What's wrong? Is it defective? I've only cooked once on it since I've purchased in Dec. Ideas?
Can you email me the pictures you have to paulsq81@gmail.com and we can try to troubleshoot the problem further. Sorry for the late reply I’ve just been busy with work and home life.
great video!! now throw a brisket on that bad boy!!
Thanks James! I’ll be doing a brisket again soon, if I do use this pit for it I’ll definitely have to use my pellet tube to get some good smoke flavour on the meat. Cheers
Hey man just bought this same model. I have one question...the slide plate do you want it open or closed when smoking? What about straight grilling?
Hey Jason! The slide plate you want closed for smoking. For straight grilling I leave it closed too, I only open it to sear if I’m using this grill. You can experiment with leaving it open for grilling just remember that center zone is gonna be a lot hotter with it open and you might get a lot of flair ups with the flame being exposed
uMMM I feel for ya... but I would have scraped this vid after the second time the neighbor drove by with his mower. I could hear anything I wanted to know.
Thanks
Your welcome. Thanks for watching
@@paulsq_ any time going right now to get my pellet smoker 😉
Awesome. You’re gonna love it
Did you put the grill together and use it yet?
Thank you for this! My wife and I will be getting one of these I think.
Thank you. I’m sure you’ll love the grill as much as I love mine. Cheers Bill Cyrus
Hey Paul since you covered the drip pan to clean up easier do you leave the sliding pan off?
Hey MrCjcav! Yes the sliding pan needs to be left on, covering the sear zone or else you’ll just end up burning a hole through the foil cause of the heat from the open flame burning directly on it.
Do you happen to have a link to purchase that drip pan? Thanks!
All I have is the heat defuser plate that came with the grill and I cover it with foil for an easier cleanup. If you don’t have the heat defuser plate you should contact Pit Boss and look into getting one.
Hello Paul may I ask you a question?
Hi Candis, you may ask any question/questions you may have and I’ll do my best to answer it/them for you.
Hi I'm thinking about buying one from Walmart, but how long do they last? And how much is a bag of pellets? Thanks
I’ve had mine for 10 months now and haven’t had any issues with it. I use the grill 3-5 times a week at least, so it gets used a lot. Here in Canada I find 40lb bags for $15 at Walmart and that’s the Pit Boss brand pellets, so my guess would be around that price in the U.S give or take
@@paulsq_ ...Wow that's a lot of smoking and thanks for the reply
Did you put aluminum foil under the grill?
Recently bought mine and I was wondering
You put it on smoke do you also have to set a temp? or just keep it on smoke?
If you’re using the smoke setting just leave it on smoke. You can adjust the temp a bit using the P setting. Here’s a video that might help you out. th-cam.com/video/TpVysrS0tBc/w-d-xo.html
Thank you.
Good information.
To the point !👍
Is the pellet fed grill a new thing Ive never seen before
Hey Jz! The pellet grills aren’t new, they’ve been around a few years now. There’s a huge selection that vary in price from high, mid, and low. It all depends what one is willing to spend on a grill
I was joking guy good video I learned what I needed to know
Thank you Russ, I’ve been thinking of making a new video on this more detailed to help out first time owners.
Thanks for the very informative video I’m thinking about getting one
Thank you for the kind words. You’re welcome
You know you can pause the video without us feeling it till your Nieboughr is done?? 🤔👀
Thanks for the tip and thanks for watching
You're decent. Thanks for the video dude. It is very helpful. Thank you.
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching
When it's set on smoke how smoky is it supposed to be
Hey James, on the smoke setting you’ll get bursts of smoke as per the timer feeding pellets to the fire pot. If you’re asking how smokey the meat will be it get a light smokey flavor on it nothing that will blow you away though. Hope this helps you out, if not just ask.
Paul, I am really enjoying the videos and finding them very helpful. I am researching grills on my way to get a new one. I do not have the space you do for multiple grills. I mostly grill chicken breast for my wife and steaks for myself. I would like to do brisket some time and ribs BUT if you were only going to Q chicken, hamburgers etc......would you use your Pitboss?
Hey MrEricturney! Thanks I am honoured you’re enjoying my videos and that they are helpful to you. It’s ok you don’t have the space for multiple grills not a worry. Having multiple grills is nice but you’re not gonna use them all as much as you would think. I would definitely buy the Pit Boss that I have if I could only have one grill. You can’t beat it for the cost and it holds a lot of meat so no issues of not cooking enough, due to shortage of grill space. I can easily fit 6-8 racks of St.Louis cut spare ribs, 2-3 full packer briskets size depending. 4-6 pork butts. This would be using the main cooking grates and the upper cooking grate too, just to give you an idea of the grill space. If you have any further questions about the Pit Boss feel free to ask and I’ll help you to the best of my knowledge on it.
Paul’s Q awesome! Thank you so much for your thoughts
You’re welcome
Paul
Do you have any video on the P settings and what you use
I don’t have any video on the P settings. I use the default P4 setting all the time. The thing with the P settings is just the timer for how fast or slow the auger will feed pellets. The higher P5 P6 will feed pellets faster then the P1 P2 settings. Giving you less smoke on the higher numbers and more smoke on the lower settings. Once you change the temp from the smoke setting, the P settings shout off and the control board goes off the heat to adjust feed time for the pellets.
Paul’s Q
Thanks for the Response. Love your vids. Most days I get home I”m hungry and I need food now, so anything I can BBQ in under an hour is prime..LOL
Thank you for the feedback. I’ll try and focus on more of those types of videos for yourself and others who are like us tired after work and don’t want long cooks
Hey thanks, quick and easy!
You’re welcome Ryan. If it’s your first time using the grill you can check out my latest video here
th-cam.com/video/KTLGhCmobwk/w-d-xo.html
So these don't need an additional smoke tube?
You don’t need to use a smoke tube unless you want more heavier of a Smokey flavor
@@paulsq_ thank you! How do you like cooking on it?
I love cooking on it as it’s very easy and user friendly. I probably use this grill the most out of all my grills
@@paulsq_ awesome thanks i think im living one up tomorrow!
Is it normal for it to leave red marks that look almost bloody from the cherry apple maple pellets, or am I screwing up?
Hey Jon. I’ve never used the blend of pellets you’re mentioning here. I asked a friend of mine who has used a blend like that and he said he never experienced anything like what you described. Maybe you can elaborate more on what the grill is doing and where these red marks are?
@@paulsq_ meat has a deep red tint to it that's very noticeable, and along the edges is a dried blood look. Very strange, but the inside was cooked just fine. Appreciate the response btw
From what you’re describing it sounds to me like you got one hell of a smoke ring on the meat. If you took any pictures of it email them to me so I can see and let you know if it’s good or bad.

Sorry I just realized the email was missing the number in it. I just edited it
