    Wood Wind not getting Hot

    Pellets have been stored in a container outside. There my be some moister, but certainly not wet. Pellets are coming through nicely....usually by the time I look there is a large mound covering the hot rod. The hot rod isn’t heating at all.

    Wood Wind not getting Hot

    I put in an email to them earlier, but I think they’re closed until Monday. Just thought I’d check in here to see if anyone could offer a suggestion.

    Wood Wind not getting Hot

    Hello! So I have a Camp Chef Wood Wind and at the end of last season it started to flame out after 45min-1hr of cooking. Recently I pulled it back out and it’s not warming at all. So far I’ve replaced the controller with the new WI-FI model, the thermometer in the cook chamber, and the hot...

    Hello

    Good morning all!  Just wanted to introduce myself.  I'm gcates and I'm from central NC.  My big brother introduced me to this site and I look forward to learning a lot from you guys.  I'm a very novice smoker and eager to learn as I love the art of putting smoke to things.  I'm married with two...

    Dave it wasn't about your input. Try this post from Pops on another thread linked from this very one: Thank you so much for your concern and writing this posting, it will definitely help others wondering the same things but are too hesitant to ask! In other forums, many more experienced users...

    Looks awesome!!! This may work out yet!! Another question....would you suggest using that particular rub, or does that have less to do with the process and just more with flavor? I guess what I'm asking is, the higher temps are what make it safe and I could use any flavor rub I wanted, correct?

    Thank you Bear.  I've come to the conclusion that unfortunately I won't be giving my gift.  I should've gotten started earlier on this and I regret it very much.  I figured there was no way to make it happen this late, but thought I'd check with the guys that my brother uses as his resource.  I...

    Second what my big brother said. I know little to nothing. And what I do know, I've learned from him based on knowledge he has gotten from this site. All I'll say otherwise is that my brother is being a lot nicer about it than I would want to be, so I'll defer to him. Dirtsailor, thank you...

    So I'm new to the board but I've made bacon a few times with my brother who is a member of the board. So I've procrastinated on the particular belly I have but I'm hoping to get it done in time to give some away as a gift in a few days. I plan on cold smoking it and my question is, what is he...
