This video made life easy for me today. Used it on my new Pit Boss Vertical smoker Today. Worked just like you said it would. Then I smoked some wings and hot links in it with a tube smoker. Excellent flavor. Thank you.

@johnmanthey2683 Жыл бұрын

Do you leave the safety grid in the hopper? I take mine out as it makes it easier to level the pellets when they want to cavitate. Also easier to get all the pellets out when changing pellet flavors.

@gavensgoodeatsbbq4162 Жыл бұрын

I only left mine in because it is has about to do with the structural integrity of your hopper.

If you are looking to go bigger look at the vertical smokers. I love my Pro 4. Have done 7 pork shoulders in it. The 1600 is a beast as well, as that is not a vertical but barrel smoker...

Just getting one of these. We can’t get the auger to turn. I saw/heard where you said it can take 6-7 minutes so we will try that. Any advice??

@gavensgoodeatsbbq4162 9 ай бұрын

If your auger will not turn you may have to takenit back. Did you by chance look in the hopper amd make sure nothing was in the bottom??? My 850 took about 4 to 5 minutes to drop pellets, my vertical less than a min, but if the auger is not functioning there is another issue. Call pitboss. 480-923-9630

We bought this from lowes, used twice and my man is concerned about the smoke leaking from door seal. It does it a lot at the beginning but seems to go away. This is his 2nd smoker so he's not new, but new to pellet & Pit Boss. He says it's holding temp which is good obviously, so maybe it's not a concern?

@gavensgoodeatsbbq4162 Жыл бұрын

Mine also smoked a bit from the door. Just took it off and adjusted the latches a bit. As for the smoke, it will push out a very light blue smoke. I use a smoke tube for more smoke. Love those

@@gavensgoodeatsbbq4162 I Like my PB"s. The only things that I had a problem wit besides the controller were the four fixed shelf levels. On the Copperheads & Sportsman's series 3, 5, and 7 you can adjust grate levels two inches apart. On my series 3 I found jerky racks the exact same size as the grates. I have it set up for six racks. The other problem I had on the pro was the ash pot. The concept is great but, I could never get it to fit right to use that little twist screw. I'll give you a little cleaning tip. Go to Lowes and get some Awesome. It's a cleaner liquid. When cleaning your door spray a generous amount on the entire door. Just make sure you have plenty of Bounty, or some brand. No scraping, brushing or elbow grease. If you do get and try it let me know what you think. I really appreciate the info.

@@gavensgoodeatsbbq4162 I went to your site and saw your tips video where said you might get the Brunswick. I think you made a better choice. I had a Loraedo and sold it. Personally I think the cabinet gives a better smoke flavor than the pellet grill. I also feel there is a big difference in pellet brands. I've used Pit Boss, Cusinart, Traeger. Never had a problem. Now I use Lumberjack. I do not use blends like competition, BBQ etc. I use straight wood, pecan, hickory, mesquite cherry. I'm trying some Lumberjack CharHickory. Ehh. They're ok. I really like my pecan and mesquite.

If you are talking about the burn off and priming that is a no. This is just to get your smoker ready for use and to burn off all the elements from the factory.
