Honest review of my pit boss Lexington

[@thegalleryBBQ]

Thanks! Nice job Scotty!

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

Thanks

[@1nanometer]

Raw and honest, nothing fancy. I can relate! Thanks Scotty.

I just bought one yesterday. I grilled burger last night and right now I’ve got some chicken breast on. So far I’m absolutely loving it. So much easier than a charcoal grill. It’s been really really windy here and I just can’t get my charcoal started. This is stupid easy in comparison

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

Love this little pit.

[@davidsanders3817]

I am glad you are having good cooks with yours. My Lexington routinely is 75 degrees lower than set. Thanks for the idea about plugging the holes up. I will try that again with some inexpensive meats, like chicken. I have given up on the Pit Boss tech support with the temp issue. The reason I think there is something fundamentally wrong with the design is because my Z-Grill cooks with perfect temps and so does my Weber Charcoal. Any other suggestions?

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

try cleaning the probe. what also helps is when you turn iit on after the smoke clears. go 100 over you set temp. add your food. then turn it down to the desired temp you want. that works for me.

[@1nanometer]

Another vid showed a "P" setting in the controller that seemed to help that dude. YMMV

[@davidsanders3817]

@@1nanometer Late reply, but my Lexington doesnt have a P setting. That could help a lot. I plugged all but one hole with aluminum foil and that helps quit a bit. It makes it useable.

Been using this Pit for 2 years now. Love it, I also have done the same, blocked the holes with tinfoil. Ive been trying to find a way to hang jerky though, and a blanket for winter. Any ideas? Also if you want a cover, Lowes sells the Pit Boss "pro" series cover, but it fits this model perfectly. I also took out the grate that sits over the pellets. Its annoying to me to not be able to reach my pellets when its getting low. Now I can scoop them off the sides easier.

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

Thanks. My pitboss sits idle in the winter here. 20 below .just cany keep up

[@strongtowerconstruct]

I instantly like this guy. Thank you for the review 👍

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

your welcome. glad i could help

[@1nanometer]

Hey maybe you could make a video where you show your collection of Weber kettles, Scotty. That'd be interesting,

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

that take some work. i have them in storage around my area lol

[@mikhailvershinin2292]

I just bought this gem for 75 dollars brand new from Walmart my local store was clearing out a whole bunch of them

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

you will love it

[@nalley6815]

So I’m confused. Walmart dropped the price on this and the austin XL. I figured they were discontinuing them but I just bought one yesterday…. Weird

[@gabrielsierra6890]

Question: Is it OK to leave the Lexington out in the open with just the cover? I have not yet got to get a roof to my porch, worried about the temp control electronics, thanks!

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

Be fine. Mine sit outside all winter. Even at 34 below zero.

[@alejandrorangel6588]

Thank you sir im thinking of buying one ..

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

It's a great little pit.

[@thelittleguy2037]

Ok get a key ring ring put through grill then you can hook pull ring grill comes right up

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

Nice idea

[@MrHoochMeister]

Hey Scotty! Great video. Holidays are coming so I was wondering what your thoughts are about smoking a whole turkey. We have balmy 30-40F down here in Dane county around thanksgiving.Thanks again for posting.

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

I bet you can get a small bird in there 20 12lbs. Thanks for the idea. I go get 1 now and try it..

[@phred5]

Great video, hey I wonder if you could coat or “ season “ that grease pan to make the fat slide down as easy as the grease and water does

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

may work. some people use foil...

[@phred5]

These are great barbecuers , Walmart has them priced down to $150 , so if you want another one better go grab one

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

@@phred5 wow i better love this pit

[@nalley6815]

@@phred5 I’m not sure if my Walmart had them down that low but I sure remember the price majorly dropping. Unfortunately I was stupid and didn’t get one then. I got one yesterday at $267. Still not THAT bad in my opinion

[@phred5]

@@nalley6815 yeah , they were marked that low , I remember very well because I got one

[@rbrown2895]

Just got done cleaning mine!!👍😎👍

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

love this pit

[@bwrick21]

Is it possible to fit three racks of ribs on the smoker?

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

yes if you block them first

[@805BBQJUNKIE]

Thanks for the review

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

Thanks for watching

[@theilliniguy]

Also, what did you use to block some of the holes?

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

Used tin foil

[@theilliniguy]

I don't see anything here about Uncle Steve's rubs? And what Weber rubs?

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

No this just a review video. About the pit. Not the rubs today

[@lware1]

How often does it need to be cleaned?

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

I clean all my pellet grills after 3 cook.

[@AloneinRemoteAlaska]

So as I am planning my outdoor kitchen, if you could have just one grill which would it be? I plan to do all my cooking outside until the snow really starts flying. :-)

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

For 1 person I get this little pit boss Lexington. Perfect.like an out door oven

[@thelampman6582]

can you use it without pellets?

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

Nope. But u can use it with out a glow plug
