    This started with the update. I had only done low cooks till i noticed it on the past 2 high cooks. 1st time i thought it was just low fuel but that is not the case. The fan slows down and holds the temp at 500 when set over 500. Very annoying to say the least.

    Kind of what I was thinking. I'll swap that out and see.

    Odd thing has happened. Last 2 cooks, my 1050 won't get past 500. Fan slows down right at 500 . Was trying to go to 600 and she just dies. Have over half full on charcoal

    Anyone purchased the lss griddle shroud yet? I have one coming to try it out as using my griddle has been challenging. I have had to run the grill temp way up to get it to a good temp. Hopefully this will fix that.

    Yes different cooks. The butts were Sunday at 275 degrees then last night fired it up to 600 for chicken breasts and thats when the magic happened. i have seen that vid and mine was a bit more severe. I was more concerned with the materials taking a prolonged direct flame honestly. Probly...

    It was pure memory loss on my part to not clean haha. My ol lady cannot see the grill from the kitchen but sure did see the Clark Griswold sized flash.

    How does the strip help with snuffing out flare ups? i had a 4 alarm flare up last night and my misting bottle broke. 8 hour 2 pork butt cook then a 600 degree chicken cook. Probly should have cleaned a bit in hind sight.

    New gravity 1050 question

    Hey guys. Just got this rig fired up doing burn in and have a question for those with one. I have a ton of smoke rolling from around the hopper but not much coming through the grill it seams. I have chunks in hopper and a couple in ash pot.
