T-Roy!!! How are you my man??? So glad you are happy over there brother but we miss you here. Hopefully you and the Mrs. are doing well. She still making those "jugs"? lol

[@TROYCOOKS]

Oh yeah brother, Jugs are flowing good!!! LOL Yep, all good here. Miss you guys!!! Cheers bro!!!! @@TheDawgfathasBBQ

[@shaunmclaughlin5385]

I’ve had my 1600 for 8 months now and I absolutely love it! I usually keep the top shelf off and hanging on the rear hook until I need it. Make sure you raise the rain cap about an inch when cooking for good air flow.

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Great tip. Thanks!

[@kurtisgarcia6965]

It's about time you went with that PITBOSSSSS!!!!!

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Hahahaha!!! So fill me in. What have a I been missing?

[@Viewtoagrill]

Hey Alton. Already assembled!! Now that is a treat! How about searing something over that sear zone first... Take care!

[@victorbenner539]

ALTON , good to see you put up something. First cook, help it simple. Chicken or ribs. Looking forward to seeing your next video. 😊

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Thanks Johnny! I was thinking about that as well. Gotta love the sear zone for sure! And keep cranking out that stellar content bro. No one does better reviews and how to's on the platform brother!

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Thanks Victor! Those are definitely possibilities as well. Be sure to follow the Pit Boss channel too bro. I'll be posting content over there as well.

[@hartleydaniel2044]

Looking toward to seeing more from you! I just ordered this exact grill and hopefully will have it tomorrow 🤞

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Awesome!!! Be sure to check out the Pit Boss KZbin channel as well. I'll have content on there on the Backyard Bosses playlist. Welcome aboard...

[@sirreedster]

I need some guidance guys. I have this model. Still yet to do the burnoff. I had to get a replacement igniter rod as this model has issues with drawing to much juice to ignite, and throws the internal breaker. So when I pulled out the dispersion shield, I noticed a Styrofoam sheet between the hopper and the body, seen in the gap that is at the ogger housing and hopper end. In the video you can see the same thing. It looks like a white gasket when everything is pulled out. Is there any issue with leaving it there?

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

I've never had that issue with mine. Hopefully you are able to get yours up and running soon though. If you need further assistance or if I can help in any way, shoot me an email at [e-mail] I'll do what I can to help if possible.

[@sirreedster]

Sent you an email bro

[@tyannaist]

Hey there Alton, I see you got a new toy for your collection and it looks very nice. Wish I could sample your first cook on it but it's okay I'm just glad you shared the video of displaying it. Thanks and take care 🙏🏾

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Thank you for dropping by Tyanna. I'm still kicking around what the first cook will be. Decisions Decisions...

[@daddydutchbbq]

Yooo...Hey Stranger! Great seeing you again ! Ya know I dig that intro music ! Nice new cooker Alton ! Hoping y'all are doing well!

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Kent!!! Wzup my man? Thanks for always dropping by to check on us bro. I really appreciate it man. Doing well over here. Really trying to get back into the swing of things this year. Barring any setbacks maybe consistency will visit us. lol

Hey bro it's been a minute.....nice looking pit I know you definitely gonna throw down some awesome 👌 cooks ...can't wait. Oh...and by the way the editing is spot on like the close ups 👍💯. Thanks for sharing and y'all have a great week. Cheers!🍻

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Thank you my brotha! Got a new camera I've been playing around with and this makes some of those shots way easier. I'm glad it came out OK for the first time making a video with it. Thank you man for always supporting us. How have you been? I need to get over and see what you've been cooking man.

[@bobbicatton]

Nice burn off demo. Looks like a versatile setup👍😊 Great to see you, Alton!

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Thank you Bobbi. I poke my head up from time to time here. lol How are you these days?

[@djmerchant]

What I absolutely LOVE about pretty much every burn-in video for any kind of smoker is that people don't take the grills inside and actually WASH them before running the process. They will try to reason with you something like "But the burn-in process removes all of the nasties from the manufacturing process." Oh HELL NO!! If my food is gonna touch it, it's gonna be CLEAN before the burn-in.

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

To each's own bro...

@@TheDawgfathasBBQ True dat

[@akrider027]

I bought the same one and I really like it. Im in Alaska so it eats some pellets and she has some hot spots, but once you learn the smoker it works really well.

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Man if it works well in Alaska, it's got to perform well in TX. Good to know. What is your favorite thing to cook on it? Also if you could improve the grill in any way, what would you have improved?

[@akrider027]

@@TheDawgfathasBBQ my only complaints are that uneven heat distribution (that’s a big zone to heat with one centralized burn pot) and I have the older style diamond grates that are difficult to clean.

[@derekharrell9116]

How about some country style ribs for the first cook?

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

That sounds pretty interesting. Haven't made those in a while.

Thank you for making this video it help so much

[@mikejones021]

Is the griddle included when u buy the pit boss 1600?

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

It did indeed come with the grill when I got mine.

[@PartridgeFamilyProspecting]

Is this the elite version? I'm looking to buy one but was keeping it under 1000

[@maze1914]

Nice. Why not the 1600 elite that has the VST feature. Cant wait to see what you cook.

[@davecrippen6130]

Looks like a beauty! You trimming up a brisket for a first cook on it?

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Thanks... Still pondering on what to do first on it. We shall see bro.

[@Whatuptee]

Love my pitboss 850

[@Sharky762]

Welcome back man, it's been quite the while

[@kgraham16]

I have this same smoker. Bought it a couple years back. I noticed that your panel is different from mine. Is that a new panel and is the temperature in 5 degree increments?

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

So yes the intervals are in 5's on this unit. This is my first Pit Boss pellet cooker so I don't have anything to compare it to as for previous models. How do you like yours after owning it for a while?

[@kgraham16]

@@TheDawgfathasBBQ man I love it!!!! Bought it during the pandemic and have smoked briskets, ribs, pork butts, turkeys, etc!!!! Also did some smash burgers with the griddle! All in all this thing is a tank and gives me no problems! My only small con is my temperature panel does not do the 5 degree increments but does it 10 degree increments. I might need to look into updating the panel.

[@troyjones2358]

Really nice smoker.

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Thanks Troy. What are you cooking on these days?

[@ryanreeves70]

Got the 1600 pro elite yesterday on clearance $559 lowes

[@thebeardedcaveman1023]

You could do some rabbit jerky oh so good 🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

I will straight have to take your word for that one. lol

[@randyunderwood2894]

so, you set it to 360 and it got over 400? now i'm scared. btw.....did you do the assembly out of the box? first cook gotta be some ribs bro

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

Scared? Why? You do understand that temps on pellet grills aren't an actual temp but rather an average over a duration of time. All pellet grills tend to overshoot the target temp and settle back to them. That's exactly how I run my offset cooker too by the way. And also, maybe you missed that nugget but I didn't assemble it. It came assembled!!! SHOCKED me too!!! lol

[@randyunderwood2894]

perhaps scared was a little to dramatic. worried is better. i understand what you're saying . and, i have no experience with pellet grills so, i am just curious about them. thanks for the info@@TheDawgfathasBBQ

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

@@randyunderwood2894 no worries brother. Pellet grills are just another tool in the BBQ arsenal. They are fun cookers to cook on for sure.

[@cypressblue8877]

Hey Alton - been a bit. Hope you're doing fantastic. I can hear what sounds like a lantern noise. Gr8t looking grill. Funny how men complain about women and their shoes - BBQ guys and their grills/smokers. Stay safe & take care of you all. Thanks for sharing, eh :))

[@TheDawgfathasBBQ]

BBQ guys and their cookers? I have no Earthly idea of what you speak of here. lol I would stop adding grills but I aint no quitter!!! lol How have you been? And thank you for dropping by.

Doing ok. Lol on how many you can get. Nice to see I got notification. Enjoy your day eh.

You don’t have to take the Handle off to remove the deflector plate . That rod will move out of the way

Do some nice hot and fast fatty chicken thighs for the first cook! Nice grill!
