So, I was smoking some chicken I injected with garlic butter for dinner and salad use. Also had some onions in because why not... so I decided to do 2 rows of Mesquite and Apple blended, just to do some thing different. Get the pellets going, put em in the smoker, set it for 240f, go out for a walk, come home, settle into the AC..and get informed my Smoker is Beeping.
ERR1. Smoke is rolling a bit thicker, but every time I've used Mesquite it seems to be thicker then fruit woods, but I open the smoker and google ERR1 on my Kindle.
Despite the AMNPS going normal, some where when I was out, the thing had light -both- rows almost at once. Never seen it before. It looked like the bottom half of the pellets had light up and the top half was just starting. Suffice to say, my MES was at 300f+ from that much pellet going up, and the chicken ended up rather dry. Onions on the other hand were great.
Any one else ever had this occur? I determined entirely was the pellets, I removed them and the smoker cooled off and went to it's normal temps again. I'm not sure I trust mixing pellets again or what not. Chicken was edible, but the exterior was leathery, and some were definitely oversmoked.
