I get more visible and smoke flavor with my Savannah Stoker PID than I ever did with the factory controller.
It has temp swings built in so you get the smoldering smokey pellets. I get just as much smoke flavor with my PID controller as I do with my Oklahoma Joe stick burner. Not all PIDs are...
The sear station on the PitBoss does work. My wife likes her hot dogs burned black on the outside. I cook them normal on the parts of the grill away from the sear station. When they are done I move hers over the open fire and in a few seconds (ok maybe a couple of minutes) they are black like...
Here is what I paid for mine.
Your pit would require the Offset Box. Mine did and it made the install super easy.

I don't have that model Pit Boss but I have the 820D model. The stock controller was the same as what you are describing. It went from a 250 setting then the next setting was 300. The P settings only really help you in the smoke setting. I never found a way to achieve 275 with that controller. I...

I talked about the Savannah Stoker & a few posts down I posted some pictures of the unit. I hope this can help you.
I'll have to second the Savannah Stoker controller. I have it in a Pit Boss 820D and it made my pit act like one of the big boys. Just half the cost.. lol
It is a great controller.
On my Pitboss I smoke my baby backs for 2 hours at 180 degrees. Then I bump it up to 225 until the ribs are done. This leaves a killer smoke ring and a great smoke taste.
I use B&B Oak pellets. These are 100% oak pellets.
