Didn’t build it
« on: May 08, 2023, 05:19:29 PM »
Deciding on Building one or just buying one. Then I just said the hell with it I’ll buy this one. Giving it it’s initial burn off now they say an hour at 400. I’m gonna go a couple three maybe.

Had to look it up, watched a cool video on it. WOW 98lbs of pellets and the PID controller is a nice feature. One thing it did note the ash clean out tends to warp on the burn in. Do you sift your pellets to get the chips and dust out?

Yeah heard it warps once. During burn off. After that flatten then no worries. So they say :dunno: No sifting for me. I’ll watch for dust then hand scoop. Which I’ll been lucky, lately.

Just wish I could justify getting one. Just don't smoke in big batches, it's just the wife and me. So, it's one rack of ribs, half a chicken, sausage or during the holidays I'll do a hole turkey breast.

What in the heck happened? That ash pan must have been really stuck when it warped on the burn in.

Tried to move it by myself, and the handle broke and fell on my foot and put a hole in the top of it.

Oh no! I almost got the Brunswick instead of the Pro Series II. The Brunswick has more accurate temp settings available whereas mine is in 25 or 50 degree increments. The double doors seem nice too. Hopefully it's all in working order and the foot isn't too bad!

I can't be the only one that zoomed in on that first picture to try and figure out what kind of meat it was only to realize it was a foot. Lol. Better have a few beers!

Since your still in ER you may not be able to answer. Is it going to be repairable, warrantee clame?  Better put a bullet or two in it (you).

Holy hell BL, I probably would have been so PO’d I would have kicked it with my other foot.  Ibuprofen and bourbon is surely in order. Glad it didn’t break bones but again…holy hell! Wishing you a speedy recovery mister.

Friends came over this afternoon put it on back patio. They laughed till they realized how heavy it was. With an extra bag of pellets :chuckle: seems to be working like it should. Seasoning one more time with pam. After that i’ll be smokin like a train. Here a couple character marks  :chuckle: Life is good  :IBCOOL:

Bought mine used and unloaded it solo with a hand cart. Surprised I didn't end up in the ER, it was sketchy!! It's 154 lbs and The Brunswick is 200 lbs. Glad your foot isn't broken.
