Will a new PID controller for my BBQ075 help

[meatybob]

Will a new PID controller allow my BBQ075 to burn hotter. It has never seared a steak well.

Hi Bob, I have a Traeger Pro 34 which after a little research looks like it may have replaced the BBQ075 when it was discontinued in 2021. I have the very same experience with my pellet grill that it just cannot seem to get hot enough for searing even when I turn it all the way up, so I bought a weber kettle grill and use that for searing and the Traeger for smoking!

I think part of the reason for that is that it is indirect heat and not exposed to open flame or directly above open coals.
