    What about the creosote?

    New To Pellets, Need Some Advice

    I agree with you regarding the salmon. I follow the basic premise described here and mine comes out perfect every time. I have a pellet grill, indeed the same one that the original poster has. But I do not use it for salmon. I use either water soaked or white wine soaked cedar planks over...

    Big Cooker Showdown: Rec Tec vs BGE Doing Massive Dino Ribs(Heavy Q-View)

    Great news Robert, and always good to know that a fellow Rec Tec owner is happy with his or her results. Glad to also see that they gave you an answer regarding the temps that you are comfortable with. The food looks great and I sure that it tasted as good as it looks. Armed with the...

    Big Cooker Showdown: Rec Tec vs BGE Doing Massive Dino Ribs(Heavy Q-View)

    Good luck, but I already have an idea of what they are going to tell you. 1. The lid is not intended to be smoke tight, or airtight. Two pieces of metal against one another will not form a smoke tight seal. There will be smoke leakage along the length of the seam. If it's not water tight, or...

    What "adjustments" did you have to make?

    Egg temp control issues

    Check some of the YouTube videos on how to set up an Egg for low and slow cooks. Oops, looks like you already did that. Check the Kamado Joe YouTube videos for how they set up the KJ for low and slow. I'd bet that the same techniques are applicable. The recommendation for the KJ is to open...

    Temp accuracy, expectation vs reality, RT-700

    You’re welcome. Adjust according to the percentage discrepancy that you’re witnessing between your grill’s reported temperature and your aftermarket thermometer’s reported temperature. And do understand that it will never be exactly in line with your aftermarket thermometer at every point in...

    Well I Went And Did It: Ordered The Rec Tec RT 700 Bull

    Knife sharpener

    I own the Work Sharp Ken Onion Edition. I won't use anything else either. It puts an edge on my knives like I've never seen.

    SmokeDaddy Magnum P.I.G and Pellet Pro PID upgrade for my PB Austin XL

    I think you're on the right track. Increased levels of creosote usually mean that the fire is not getting enough air, and/or not burning hot enough to give off a cleaner type of smoke. Since more air would allow for a cleaner burning fire, taking steps to allow more air to get to it or even...

    Temp accuracy, expectation vs reality, RT-700

    Here is how you set your thermometer, or "adjust your offset" on your Rec Tec if you should need to. I was basically following this, but I was using 3 probes instead of one.

    Temp accuracy, expectation vs reality, RT-700

    Agree with all of the above. Mine is not a RT700 Bull, but the RT590 Stampede. I have checked the temp in 4 different places at once on it using the grill's internal temperature reading, a probe from my Thermaworks Smoke and two probes from my Weber Igrill. The final three aftermarket probes...

    Has anyone used the "Heavy D" Stick burner attachment?

    This might actually be the saving grace of the SDHD. It’s heft and resistance to warping. It’s made of very heavy gauge steel and will not warp. However burning wood in it, is nothing from a tricky proposition.

    Yep. Very well explained.

    SmokeDaddy Magnum P.I.G and Pellet Pro PID upgrade for my PB Austin XL

    Glad to hear of the progress and good results. I don't know how to reduce creosote production. But cleaning it with a paste of water mixed with baking soda and scrubbing it with steel wool should make for an easier cleanup.

    SmokeDaddy Magnum P.I.G and Pellet Pro PID upgrade for my PB Austin XL

    Very nice and congrats on the new modifications. Hopefully you get the smoke profile that you are looking for, but at the very least, with the new PID controller you no longer have to go through the cumbersome Pitt Boss non PID startup procedures, and your temperature control should be tighter.

    Back ribs are on...but having temp trouble

    The best way for setting up a Kamado for low and slow follows in the videos. I own a BBQ Guru CyberQ. I can tell you from experience that it does not work better than the techniques used in the following videos. Those items, DigiQs, CyberQs, and other gadgets like them, look cool, but just...
