I will say this about the smoker I have had it for about 6 months 6 months my control board went out. Which was causing it to have a extremely long heat up process. But other than that it is an overall good smoker with what I think is the best warranty you can get. They will handle your problems with no problems.

Very interested in getting one of these , BUT....... two questions . Does this come with the controller that can go UP in 10 degree increments ( their old ones skipped from 250 to 300 ) Also , I’ve seen people modifying their grills with a curved piece of metal added right beside the temperature probe to help stabilize the heat and read outs. Does this grill need that modification added ?

Hey, thanks for reaching out. I cannot definitively answer the first part of your question. That is the first time, and the only time I have started the cooker, and I’m in cold Minnesota. You should always preheat your cookers, regardless of its a barrel, stick burner, or pellet. I always let my warm for a half hour at least regardless of the temperature. That being said, I will be cooking on it tomorrow, and will do my best to answer your question in my video, or I’ll stop back here and let you know. I did spray everything inside when I seasoned it!

Is there a smoke mode for this versus just a regular grilling mode
@AshKickinBBQ
@AshKickinBBQ 2 жыл бұрын
Yeah the S means it’s in smoke mode, which it will usually run between 160-180° on that setting. If you want to cook at higher temps, adjust your temperature accordingly. Sometimes for jerky or salmon I run in smoke mode only. Other folks like to run in smoke mode for an hour or two on big meats and then set the temp to 225, 250, 300, etc. I don’t use the recipe mode, so I cannot comment on that.
@kimob4

I think I've answered my own question but please let me know if I'm right. If you tap the knob you can put it into recipe setting which displays as an S. Also, if you turn the knob on the temperature mode all the way down it will do the same thing showing an S but that puts it into smoke mode

Ricer definitely had some controller issues with his, I didn’t have the issues he did. That being said, I did get the firmware update to my controller to get the 10° increments, and it doesn’t seem to heat up faster as well. I know Ricer sent his controller in for the update as well. Dropping a chicken video tomorrow I did with the updated controller. Zero issues and held temp wonderfully

Love the double wall and the grill insert, is the Pro 1600 (and Elite) the only Pit Boss that has double wall smoker? Looks like my local Lowe's has the Pro 1600 in stock! Great video!

Great review! I’m in the market for a Pit Boss and trying to decide if I want to take advantage of the outstanding low prices I’m seeing right now on the Austin XL or just jump right in to the Pro 1600 here. I was hoping you might cover the hot and cold spots on this one to see if they improved it from the Austin XL but I’m about to be searching your channel to see if you did it in another video. If not, would you mind covering that subject for us? I know there is an upgrade for the issue in the Austin XL’s but if this one has the same problem then there likely hasn’t been a plate made for it yet. Thanks again and keep up the great work!
