I'm going to see what's going on with it later today, I'd read a number of people had issues with the adapter that goes into the motor. I'll start there, frustrating that it turns fine with no load.
I tried with the chicken at various points and it never seemed to make a difference.
Anyone had problems with the rotisserie on these? I picked one up today, got home, all excited to use it. Installed everything, skewered a chicken on there, but it's not turning fully, it'll go 50% one way, then back, but seems to just struggle.
With the bar removed, it seems to turn fully, but...
Has anyone had to replace the meat probe that came with their unit? I had a flare up during one of my last cooks, went to use it for a pork shoulder a couple weeks ago and the meat probe is no longer working. Visually it looks fine, but plugging it in and the temp just jumps all over the place...
Haha a video would likely have been R-rated due to the amount of cursing I was doing at the time.
That was my exact thinking as well with regards to squeezing juice out of it when I picked it up, that then dripping down onto the manifold and whoosh!!
Yeah, I'm lucky in that I work from home and had set the smoker outside the window where I could keep an eye on it. Fingers crossed, it certainly smells good and tasty!
I actually just went out and wrapped it right after taking that picture, smoker was set to 270F.
So.... it might be ruined.... after taking that earlier picture I wrapped it in foil, poked the meat probe back in and went back inside. The probe was reading about 193F at that point, so started...
The brown is actually more on the top, here is what it looks like after about 40 minutes on the smoker:
The red circled piece was where the brown was primarily, I should have taken a picture before putting it on there. My thinking was that worst case scenario, it's good practice (only my...
A few weeks back someone gave me a brisket that they were no longer planning to cook, during the time they had it they stored it in a deep freeze (I'm assuming a chest type freezer, they specifically said deep freeze leading me to think something more than your average kitchen freezer). I then...
Oh man, that sounds delicious. Might have to whip up some homemade dough soon and put a pizza on there. What temperature and how long did you cook it for?
I had soaked it in brine for about 16 hours before putting it on to cook as well, I guess that and the larger water pan all combined to...
Same with my 560, I had been also looking at a Traeger but went with the Masterbuilt. The biggest quirk I have had so far has been with the app, which is not really a deal breaker anyway. I'm sure at some point in the future I will have to do the firebox mod etc. but if it prolongs the life of...
Thanks, I had a feeling the water pan was causing issues. Usually I use a much smaller one, but discovered it had a hole, so had to use one almost double in size. I'll take it out in a few minutes and then up the temp, that should get it finished.
So, need some advice here.... my pork is stuck at 143F. It's just stuck there and has been for at least 2 hours.
My concern is if the temp doesn't start moving soon, I'm going to run out of fuel. So what can I do to get this moving? The pork is on the upper shelf, should I move it to the lower...
I ended up just deleting it from the app and re-connecting for now, so far seems to be working as expected.... of course, now I get the feeling my estimate of this pork being completed at 6pm might be a little off. Currently sitting at 122F, I had figured it would be done by 6pm, but that is...
Has anyone suddenly had their 560 wifi issue not work? Mine has been working reliably since I set up a spare router in the garage. This morning I put a pork butt on there, thinking that I could monitor the grill and meat temp via wifi while working. So, I go to connect using the app and while it...
Mine doesn't burn too much fuel, longest cook I've done so far was 8 hours and while I topped it off, it never ran out.
Just got done cooking burnt ends, supposed to take them to a friend's later, might eat them all before then though 😂
While a little more successful in that I got a reply from MasterBuilt when asking about issues with mine, I am with you in that the warranty might well be completely useless. I had emailed them pictures of the paint failing after I think only 2 cooks with mine, they basically replied and told me...
