    Thank you. This seems to be working real well. Have a pork butt in right now. Scared to spritz it cause the temp is holding right now lol

    I've adjusted it to open it up a lot to allow more air. I've closed it up as tight as it goes. Doesn't seem to make a big difference.

    It never recovers. Ive waited a long long time. Always need to turn up the heat

    ^Mine will initially get to the correct temp dead on. As soon as I open the door to put food in, it will never come back up to the correct temp without me playing with the dial and going up hotter. Usually 350 gets me to 275 but its still not consistent. Will jump 10-20 degrees

    Yeah I have the exact same thing the wireless thermometer. It's the best thing I've bought for bbq. That's how I realized just how off my controller on my smoker was. I was wondering if you install the rec tec controller, can you replace the probes that are actually in the smoker that...

    Would anyone with 20+ smokes on this smoker buy it again? I have to play with the dial so much to get my smoker to the right temp that it's as much work as an offset smoker. Meanwhile my friend's rectec you turn on from your phone and it holds the exact temperature all day long in 20 degree...

    Thanks. I did replace the water pan with a much larger aluminum pan and temps are still all over the place. I'm so sick of this smoker that I'm probably going to have 1 more cook with it tomorrow and order myself a Rec-tec for next summer. I was planning on doing a turkey for thanksgiving but...

    Wondering if anyone is having a similar issue. Seems like an issue with the probe or controller or both. When i initially heat my smoker and bring it to temp it's perfect. Within 1-2 degrees of my thermopro. As soon as I open the door and hit a drop in temperature the controller/probes...

    Yeah I would give Louisana Grills a call and see if they have any solutions but you definitely have a problem. As soon as you turn the Smoker on you should hear the fan working.

    They were damn good. I've been tinkering around with a lot of rubs and sauces (killer hogs/Oakridge). Think I finally found my rub combo. I like to change up the sauces a lot but blue hogs seems like a favorite in my family.
