Just open the sear plate and turn the heat all the way up (leave the lid open) then put it on after about 5 mins. The point of the sear is to get the grates screaming hot, not the internal temperature of the grill

Yes sir

Just a tip on these smoker/grill combos. Don't preheat the grill to get a good sear. As soon as you crank it to 500, the grill will put out a big flame to try to climb temp. Once it hits 500, the flame will die down to try to maintain temp. You want that steak on the grill while the flame is high

@normanheilman7457 7 ай бұрын

I can second this method. Cool your steak tri tip whatever. Then set the flame to 500/high. Once that flame is cranking, open the sear plate. Put that steak or whatever directly over that flame For 1-2 mins each side. With the plate open it will stay on high heat as the way mine works the large flame Heats the grill temp but not the internal temp next to the sensor.

I have the PB850PS2 and I agree, reverse seared steaks with the flame broiler are different from the direct coal sear and is next level. Super tasty. 🔥

Not sure about the new PitBoss smokers, but I have the previous generation PB850 Pro and from smoking (225) to searing (atLEAST 400) it takes a good 15-20 minutes even in the hot Texas summer heat. The key is to set the PB to HIGH. This will get it there quicker than setting it to a high temp like 475.

@GrillSergeant Ай бұрын

Here is something to try. Empty out the burn pot and put a small handful of pellets in before you start it up. Then when you turn it on, crank the temp to 300. Once it hits 200 you can turn it down to 200 to keep it there. That should get you up to temp quicker.

"the bad boy of classical music" 2. a thing that is regarded as extremely impressive or effective. "we went 142 mph in that bad boy" The steak was extremely impressive and the Pit Boss 1600CS was extremely impressive AND effective. LOL

I just got my Pitt Boss KC Combo at a big discount at Walmart and I did your tomahawk steak. And it can out unbelievably great, No more Treager. I just don't like the no sear on Treager, and I sold it to a guy at a garage sale and I made enough money on the Trager to pay for the Pitt Boss KC Combo. Treager is so overpriced and does not perform as well as a Pitt Boss. Good luck to all the Treager owners.

This. I'm so glad I cheaped out and got a pit boss for $227. Most delicious flame seared meats I've ever cooked. Friends tell me my steaks are better than wood fired restaurants. Traeger with indirect heat wouldn't have come close. I just don't get the appeal.

I did do a pros and cons list after using it 6 months after use. One thing that surprised me is one of the cons I said was how hard it was to pull out the ash clean out tray and the Pit Boss R&D team went back and redesigned it. That showed me this company listens and wants to offer a great smoker at a great price.
