    Anyone here own a Green Mountain pellet grill?

    Thanks for the idea.......I saved a photo of the mod you mentioned on the center heat shield. You mentioned the 2 piece 'drip' pan.....I only have the one piece solid steel drip pan. Right now I'm running the the center heat shield - and the left heat shield with the right heat shield...

    Anyone here own a Green Mountain pellet grill?

    How have your temperatures been ?  I have had variables across the grates....as well as the controller being more than 20 cooler than what it shows on the controller screen.  Just curious of your thoughts?

    Crimped Thermometer wires - any solutions?

    I have a Masterbuilt dual pro, and use the Maverick 733 thermometer with the 2 probes. I drilled a hole in the back of the smoker at about the mid point that would fit a 1/2 or 3/8 inch brass water (can't remember the size) fitting. Using the water fitting - I knew it would be 'food grade'...

    Sounds like a smoking good deal - setup! Nice looking. Add a good thermometer for the meat and box and you should be good for a long time. I like the ash tray idea also!!

    Honestly, I have only used the propane, never used charcoal. I used the flavored wood of choice - normally, pecan, apple, and/or mesquite chunks in the cast iron tray (skillet) and has worked great for me. The Masterbuilt I have does have 2 doors with one accessing the burner and wood for...

    Former lurker decided to sign up!

    Hey Turk. I have the dual fuel Masterbuilt smoker and feel it does a good job. Did do a couple of mods to it. Removed the original fuel pan and replaced it with a shallow cast iron skillet. Also changed out the water pan set. I like the nice bark it produces when I use wood chunks in the cast...

    Hey Arizona

    Welcome to Arizona. Haven't been up to Flagstaff in a few years. I stick it out here in Phx, then head to the Rim country to try and stay cool in the summer. Good luck on your smoking ventures, and as I always say: "Smoke 'em if you got 'em"

    Welcome. :welcome1: I have never done any sausage, brats etc on the smoker.....but sure do love to eat them. Maybe I will have to try doing some - as soon as I master my new Daniel Boone Pellet smoker. Still playing with it now and dealing with varying temperatures. But practice makes...

    Welcome from Sunny Arizona. And yep, this is a great place to learn or for some of us re-learn the fun of smoking. I had an old Cookin Cajun smoker years ago....and it finally died about 5 years ago. Waited till a couple years ago to get back into smoking with a regular (if there is such a...

    Anyone here own a Green Mountain pellet grill?

    Hi there...thanks for the photos....GRATE idea !!! GRIN.... I showed my buddy and he is thinking of doing something similar to his Traeger. With the GMG Daniel Boone the company just put out a new firmware update for the controller that allows you to calibrate the controller up to + or - 20...

    Anyone here own a Green Mountain pellet grill?

    I have had the proverbial heat problems with mine..... But seems to have settled across the grates after removing the left heat shield. BUT the overall heat is still reading about 25-30 degrees off from what the controller says. I'm hoping the brand new version 6.0 firmware upgrade will fix...

    OldPro......Is that pelletheads.com you are referring to? Pellets.com is a pellet fuel energy company.

    Anyone here own a Green Mountain pellet grill?

    Make sure you upgrade the app on your phone/iPad or similar device AND also update the controller firmware - now version 6.0. The new firmware allows you to adjust the controller variance in temperatures by + or - 20 degrees. I think that will be solving my issues.....that and the fact that I...

    Anyone here own a Green Mountain pellet grill?

    Is your smoker wi-fi ? If so there is a new upgrade to the controller firmware, version 6.0 and a new application update for your phone - iPad etc. These upgrades allow you to set the variance for temperature differences between the controller and the actual temps at the grate. Hope that...

    Mastlt Dual fuel pro 2 door

    Depends on how big the rack of ribs are. I have had to cut some on my Dual Pro, but I also use the stand up rib racks as I like the cook much better. It has a lot of room to do the other things you mention unless you are cooking for the masses :drool. I think mine is about 30 inches square...
