These are the things I like! Upgrading, tweaking and working with your materials, instead of buying a new one. 👍

Strong magnet with a piece of lava lock gasket works great to seal the probe hole. Easier to remove & replace too.

I put some lava lock in my 1150 recently and for some reason the section I put by the hinges got smashed it and smeared like it almost melted or something. The other 3 sides are perfect. I also put a small square of lava lock under the logo In the center because it was leaking smoke. My temps have been way better also with the smoke like a boss mods. Left probe deflector was a littler hard for me to install. Now my sear drip pan sits crooked lol. I put the Heat tamer left to right and get better results than front to back, front to back gave me a 8-10 degree higher hot spot in the center just like yours

Good info. So far I'm loving these mods! I'll try adjusting the heat tamer.

Would love to see the exact same potato and probe experiment with the 2 deflectors removed. Before and after… the heat deflector mod is nice and custom cut etc. the heat pot diffuser is piece of metal, bent twice, for $36…. Would like to see IF they are helping.

Decent vid BUT... Me being honest my smoker isn't losing smoke to the point where I need this. Low & slow is the point of smoking. The small openings aren't affecting my smoke rings/flavor profiles so badly that I need to do all this but thanks for the info.

What if you turned that fire box heat deflector 99 degrees to blow out the left and right, as opposed to the front and back and added a lip on the right side to push more heat toward the left?
@GrillSergeant2 жыл бұрын
I was thinking about something like that. I'll have to give it a try.

The build quality on the new Pit Boss Pro Series 1150 is insane. Worth checking out at Lowe’s David.

So thinking if u took that plate newr the temp probe back out it would probably even out temps all across the grill. Give it a try since u didnt mount it permanently.

Hey Serg I just got a pitboss competetion series 1250. Are there any vent mods for controlling smoke from this pit since it doesn't have a smoke stack?

Interesting video, thanks for all the input I’ve done all these to my 1150 pro series and my hot spot is to the left still actually Any other ideas to try and get temperature more even across the grates
@GrillSergeant2 жыл бұрын
Interesting. Still to the left? I found the Smokes like a boss flame tamer helped out the most but my left side was slighly cooler.

I've seen some on our Pit Boss Facebook Group (link in description) use LavaLock to shield the probe from the side walls. Gonna try that out soon as well.

Question - I have a Pitboss 1600 Pro. It has a gasket already but still leaks smoke. Would the lava rock tape help?
@jtplumbing65923 ай бұрын
No, I have the same smoker. If the gasket it comes with is wearing out, you would need to buy the same type of gasket tape to replace it.
