Blaze Grills - Replace a damaged rear rotisserie burner on a Blaze gas grill

[@tvrift]

Hey quick question since you seem to be the only person doing reliable Blaze gas grill videos on YT. I just received the Prelude 32 (LP) this weekend. For some reason the grill only "reads" about 450f after 20min with 3 of 4 burners on High. (the 4th is infrared). I contacted BBQguys and they wanted video/picture proof. The temp gauge seems really slow to respond as well. My old Weber Spirit heated much quicker and higher. Is the gauge the issue?

@@tvrift hi there…. You’d be surprised how much this question comes up. So much so that I made the following video on analog temp gauges: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIjHnoGAmd2He8Usi=kDmxZhgli_u0ow0q I know customer service will ask for pics or video because there’s a lot we can determine just from the look of the flame. Chances are, the grill is fine, which is why I like to start with explaining how analog temp gauges work, rather than looking too much into the number showing on the gauge. 450-500° is a fairly common reading, after preheating. That’s not to say that there might be environmental factors at play if, in fact, the grill is under-performing. Let me ask you 2 questions, and we’ll go from there…. Does the grill perform well? You should be able to see a noticeable difference in cooking. Are you in a high elevation?
