My daughter bought that same unit at Aldis a few years ago for $69. I would upgrade to something better. The analog unit didnt have good airflow and you had to open the door to add chips. I have no knowledge of the river country unit. Always keep parts in mind as you just found out.
I make a habit of running it on high for a couple hours after using it and clean the racks before hand. I also change any foil used before the burn off.
I'm confused again, what are you calling the tray? The tray holds the chips after they are dumped from the chip loader. Thats my story any ways. If I'm using the amazen pellet tray I remove the chip drawer tray completely. Then I pull the chip loader out a couple inches in the dump position...
I use my pellet tray in two different positions with no problem. I added a piece of angle for it to sit on the left side. I also change my tin foil after each smoke. Then I know the smoke if from the pellets and not old grease. Do you use a tent to keep drippings off of the pellets?
It just sits over the vent hole. Only down side is that moisture builds up and runs down the inside. 4" heavy wall PVC. The only time I use it is when the wind blows the smoke onto my digital remote temp gauge.
Did the original poster ever say if his works with the OEM setup? Chip loader...
What is the model of the smoker. I only have problems when I dont take time to get the pellets going in the amazen tray. What about when you just use the chip loader?
One point about using an electric, it needs to be protected from the rain and snow! I have an MES30 and like it! Pretty much hassel free but I do use the A-MAZ-N pellet tray.
I had the same problem last week with a 3.75# butt. Internal temp 206 meat was hard to pull and chunky fatty meat. I think butcher took a large butt and sliced into chunks. The fat cap was on the side of the slab.
When I put an aluminum foil pan on a shelf infront of the temp limit switch it did alter the smoker. Example, if I set it to 225 the temp would drop 5-8 degrees before kicking back on instead of the normal 1-2 degrees.
