I have the PB700. i use the smaller top rack in the smoker for the meat, and I can fit a smal drip pan under it on the main grate.I'm planning on trying my first pork butt this week (go away rain) and I'll be doing it in a Pit Boss 700. It does not have a place underneath the grill for a drip pan (it has a rounded plate that allows the fluids to drain into a bucket) and I've read that I should save the drippings for once the meat is "pulled". My question is whether or not it will be just fine smoking the entire time in a disposable aluminum pan. Thank you for your help.
I didn't even think of that. Thanks!!!I have the PB700. i use the smaller top rack in the smoker for the meat, and I can fit a smal drip pan under it on the main grate.
Seems to work well.
Nope and nope :-( I suppose I could check the accuracy of my BT probe by pulling it out of the grill and testing it. Man...so much to learn :-)Not uncommon to see temp swings, your oven has them too. A 61º variance seems a bit much though. 20-30º during the cycling could be expected. Did you start with a clean shaft on the smoker's internal temp gauge? Have you verified your BT probe in boiling water?
