Interesting. From what I've noticed, mine is consistently 25F cooler than my external thermometer but I've noticed literally 0 temperature swings throughout a 6 hour cook, except when I opened the cabinet.
My temperature probe however is placed at the very top near the exhaust so that might be...
Do you have any issues with the set/measured temperature being too far off from the actual temperature? The smoker is set to 225 and is reading 225, but my thermometer is only reading 180F.
So would this be the "proper" way to start my future cooks?
Set dial to smoke
Turn on smoker
Wait for smoke to appear
Set to 200 or 225
Let smoker heat up & wait for thin blue smoke
Put food in

I don't mind small temperature differences but the fact that there is no smoke is a...

Set dial to "Smoke"
Power on smoker with the cabinet door open
When I see smoke, close door and set to my desired cooking temperature
Once smoker is close to my desired temperature (measured with a probe...
I contacted them via FB (after submitting a request online few days prior)... It took them 3 days to reply with: "Please send a customer service contact form on our website and we'll get back to you in 3-5 days". It has been 7 days since my request submission for this temperature issue and still...
I'm looking to upgrade my electric smoker for a pellet smoker. My only two options (due to location & price) are the Camp Chef SmokePro DLX and the Pit Boss Pro 4 Series Vetical Smoker. The Camp Chef is about $400 and the PB is about $390.
Here are my thoughts on both models from doing some...
