    Pork shoulder on my Pit Boss

    After playing around I think I have tbe temp settings figured out on my pit boss 820 pro. Did some pork shoulder for pulled pork next weekend. It looks great, smells even better. Was able to keep the temps between 198- 240 depending on location in the grill. Used beech pellets .

    PitBoss temp issues

    Is it temp overshoot? It should settle back down after a while. I'm going to invest in some unglazed bricks for the bottom, and an insulated blanket

    My New Slicer!

    I did some looking , the plate has a small protrusion, that must line up with the notch on the bearing? the only thing i can figure out is that piece in the cent is not supposed to move. But it spins, which allows the plate to spin as well.
