Remember the electric bullet smoker of the old days. Smoldering smoke the same as a burn tube. My wood burner does make meat better tasting than my pellet smoker but not by much if you use the right pellets. Few can tell the difference. When PID controllers came along, the tight...

Pellet brand has a big impact on smoke profile. Try Lumberjack or Smokey Woods. Read the label carefully. Smoke tubes in my opinion produce dirty smoke.

I have a different brand. I do unplug mine but just do it out of habit much like unplugging a hand drill. My OJ's grill never has pellets left in it per OJ's recommendation. If mine accidentally got turned on, no fire would start. Good question.

I have an Oklahoma joes pellet grill-smoker. OJ's no longer makes pellet grills. The ones they made are sturdy but a poor controller to say the least. Outside temperature has a dramatic effect on the set temperature point. The Fireboard looks interesting. The OJ's gen 2 works on two temp...

Nice, you should be proud.

Your best bet is call recteq. I understand the cellphone thing. I do not use one either and glad for it.

They are much lighter in color than they use to be. As y'all have posted much more dust in the bag. I think they have recently beeen bought out.

Anybody else notice a decline in Bear Mountain pellets quality? They use to be in my top three brands?

No matter what type of smoker you use, the flow heat is directly related to the stack exit point, and height as well as firebox air flow out. Each model has it's own quarks. The next point on a pellet smoker is radiant heat from thee firebox. A pan of water can alter that. Another point is...

When I looked at them at the store, I noticed how light in color they were. Not a good sign.

Rural King has had good prices on lumberjack. The Smokey Woods mesquite-oak blend is really good.

Sam's has been having large 10 pounders. Not a fan of butts over 8 pounds. Hard to find good meat these days. Side note. I noticed you posting about the fat cap. I trim it off to increase the outside meat.

Wells and copper pipes are not best buds. Not uncommon for copper pipes to get thin then crack on well water albeit it takes a long time.

One important point to watch for on a new water heater. That is how it is handled during shipping and installing. Old hot water heaters had a thick, steel tank that was glass lined that could be handled fairly roughly. Modern hot water heaters have a much thinner steel tank that is glass...

Cowboy lump charcoal is not the best in the world either. I have not seen cowboy pellets.

What did they weigh each about? I always went for 8 pounders but Sams has only 10 pound plus now days.

I was thinking I had seen adding wood chunks to the charcoal on a gravity feed system. Do a google on that.

A suggestion albeit I have not converted a pellet grill. Nor am I familiar with this grill you posted so this is a shot in the dark. A simple conversion is using a piece of expanded metal for the charcoal. I have made charcoal grills out of train air tanks for braking with this simple method...

I have a wood smoker, my fifth one, that I built, and pellet grill-smoker. I built my wood smokers to stop using any smoker that smolders wood instead of burning wood. That is also the reason I do not use smoker tubes in my pellet grill. The pellet smoker is about 90% as smokey as my wood...

Pellet brand and wood type are very important. Smoke temperature as well. Fruit wood is less smokey than Hickory as an example. Top brands to name a few: Smokey Woods Lumber Jack Smoke Mountain
