[@jordanroger4641]

Just got one of these had trouble trying to start it up for the first time seen this and with in sec started up. Thank you

[@led8541]

Hey Jordan glad i could help

[@williamriley2528]

Actually it's a Pit Boss 700FB

[@led8541]

LOL You are right ive been saying that for 4 years and you are the first person to say somthing. It was a type o and i just went with it. Thanks for stopping by the channel and have a great weekend led

[@williamriley2528]

@@led8541 I just know that because I've been looking at one... WalMart & Bed Bath & Beyond both for $335 w/free shipping. But thinking about going larger like the new Pro Series 850 or 1100 for quite a bit more money.

[@led8541]

Hey William i have the 1100 now i dont like it as much as the 700 I think there is to much surface area to heat up and it dosnt cook as even. I gave my 700 to a fellow that works for me now i wish i kept it.

[@williamriley2528]

@@led8541 That's good to know. It's just me at home now. My sons have a Cabellas and a Traeger smokers. I have seen that new 1100 owners are reporting as high as 75°F temp variations end to end within the 1100's lengthy cooking chamber...

[@led8541]

@@williamriley2528 Yea there is a pretty big temp range ive used it a lot so im getting used to it but when its time to buy a new one i will go smaller for sure. I think i may go with the traeger next time just to do a comparison i think that would be a great video for my channel . Have a great weekend and Happy Grilling led

[@abates49ers]

what tool do yall use to grab the grates and mode the slider to expose the flames??

Hey Andrew i use a pair of channel locks to move my grates. my sear slider has a handle to pull on to move it

This will be my second summer with my pit boss. i smoke ribs alot on it. Between the pit boss instructions and a website heygrillhey i have smoked alot of stuff. when it comes to the heat shield i pretty leave mine in place. i do in direct cooking with my steaks and they get a little smoke ring with them. Have fun and experiment with mixing pellets for different flavor profiles.

[@led8541]

thanks for watching

[@andrewt3880]

So how much electricity does the smoker use? Also for a standard smoke ie. brisket or ribs how many pellets does it take. Thanks pit boss looks great

[@led8541]

Hey andrew the pellet grill plugs in to any 110 outlet and the auger runs periodically so it cant be pulling that much juice as far as pellets go i did a video and grilled every day for a week on one hopper full so you get a lot of cook time out of one bag of pellets thanks for watching and have a great weekend led

[@suckslip]

Some use 250 watts and some use up to 1100 from what I've seen. The 820 I just bought is rated for 250watts.

[@suckslip]

I just got done smoking a 16 pound brisket, before fat trimming, and it took 20 hours and used about 1 hopper full. It was set to 225 for about 14 hours and 250 for the rest of the time.

[@led8541]

that is awesome

[@terriedwards5044]

Do you need put your racks and other parts in while during the first burn? I thought the whole idea of doing the first burn was to burn off/get rid of all the film/residue from the factory? Just bought my first pellet (Pit Boss) a couple weeks ago, and trying to learn as much as I can before the first use. Thanks!

[@led8541]

Hey Terri i did put all the components back in at the end of the video and burnt them off really well i do love my pit boss im sure you will love yours as well. once you start cooking with it make some videos let us see have a great weekend

[@lilmonster915]

Thats what our instructions says to do. To make sure the pellets are feeding right then put everything back on and do the 1st burn off to get all the factory residue off. Thats what we did anyways.

[@boatsknowsbbq8632]

Yes you do. Turn to 450 for at least 30-45 mins

[@TheCrashdawg]

Hope you did a burn with it all out together. Have to burn the junk off all of it. A year later do you like it still

[@led8541]

Hey Crash i love my pitboss. It took me just a few times useing it to figure it out . Thanks for stopping by.

[@randyr6610]

Nice video I just got a Pit boss 700 I used it last week it was awesome.

[@led8541]

very cool

[@jaydee123ish]

Hi Led, just thought I'd let u know I just bought a smoker 2 & ya it's all her fault lol a Pit Boss 700D haven't cook on it yet 2 feet of snow out side & very cold minus 30c .what make & flavour of wood pellets do u like best

[@led8541]

Hey Dave lol that is great i know you will like it. i normally use pecan wood pellets. there is a learning curve with a pellet grill so just take your time and figure out how to use it and you will love the way the food turns out. have a great week led

[@chickenfriedfish4059]

Just purchased this pellet smoker, never had one, still in the box just have not had time to put it together. So, where does the heat come from? the wood pellets? and the plug in is just to keep the pellets moving? and what about the ash?

[@williamriley2528]

There is an igniter that heats up and glows red hot to start the wood pellets. Then it's just flame & heat from the wood pellets in the fire can.

[@christopherpavkovich4995]

I bought one yesterday. The digital and analog thermometers are way off. The analog was reading 200 degrees higher than the digital. Anyone have this issue?

[@led8541]

i have seen other people with the same issue im not sure how to fix it you should call pit boss they are very helpful. once you get it fixed make us a video i would love to see what you are cooking have a great week

[@clhbrickhouse]

Adjust your vent cap to about 1 inch to 2 inches open to get more air flow worked on my austin xl.

[@jackr2639]

Christopher Pavkovich mine are off about 50 degrees.

[@danadalessandro9545]

Just got one myself. I am not sure that my buttons are working correct. Can you confirm how long it took to Prime it? I was holding the prime button per instructions, but it didn't seem to load pellets any faster. It finally started dropping them after about 3 min. Also when I hold the power button to turn off...I noticed that the blower still stays on, only the lcd screen turned off. Is my unit defective, or am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

[@led8541]

Hey Dana Im not sure what you mean about holding the prime buton my pit boss dont have a prime button it simply turns on with the turn of the nob when you turn mine off it the fan runs for a few minutes before it shuts off completely thanks for watching

[@fosteraloveforlearning329]

Had the same issue with mine. Called service center thinking my auger motor was bad. They said give it 5 mins. So I did and it is working great!

[@ThePeepingEgg]

Niiiiiccceee, a smoker grill!!! That looks really awesome, my husband would love this!

[@led8541]

you should get him one for sure

[@Smodlee]

Ya but $350 a pop!!!

[@DirtNassty]

Get the newer PitBoss Austin XL!

[@MrMegaFredZeppelin]

That is awesome :-) I can't wait to see you grill with it :-) Congratulations on your new toy :-) A "BIG" thumbs up :-) ROCK ON!!!!!!!

[@led8541]

thanks for stopping by

[@hinds90]

How long did it smoke heavy before the flame started.

[@led8541]

it only smokes super heavy for about 20 to 30 seconds then the flame kickes in it is the best grill i have ever had and i have had several thanks for watching

[@texaslonestarrider]

Very Cool! 😎

[@caseyoutdoors3897]

Can you change the p setting

[@led8541]

yes sir all you have to do is stick a small nail in the little hole and press easy and it will change. 4 works great for me im thinking about smoking some salmon and ill probably have to change the p setting to 5 because i want to run around 150 on the smoke setting for salmon on 4 the smoke setting runs 180 thanks for watching

[@caseyoutdoors3897]

led8541 I just bought a pit boss 1000r1 Don't know anything about it yet that's why I was asking. How to said at where do you stick the nail. Thanks so much God-bless.

[@led8541]

Hey brother the p setting is probably on 4 from the factory just take your time with it you will figure it out im sure you will love it

[@craigchapman5292]

is this the same as the pitboss 700FB sold at walmart?

[@led8541]

i got this one at rural king i do like it it has taken a bit to figure out how to work it but it does a great job

[@waynerobinson2301]

Craig Chapman i just over thanksgiving bought the one at Walmart . I haven't yet started it but im very impressed with it . It is large for just the wife and i but offers options . I had looked on internet snd found a place with low price 317.00$ and showed the wife . She took a picture of my phone then when she went in she showed them the add . So i ended up getting steep discount . I was very surprised cause i never could find that add again . This thing weighs ovef 100 pounds . I think / if you get one followinstructions and bolt up bottom shelf before standing it up as you will end up flipping it back over most likely to finish the bolts . There was no extra bolts or washers in my parts . My book said have a level but that was not needed . I think it is as good a one as you can get

[@waynerobinson2301]

Also the Fb 700 has the shelf below but is not solid it is crossed wires like 1/4" rods / anyone intrested i settled on Pit Boss cause of how accomodating the service dept was . I saw guys that were such ass holes about problems that they bent over backwards to resolve any issues . The kinda guys i would have told to get fucked but DANSONS helped get them up and running . Im very confident i wont have anyissues but if i were to have any problems im just as confident Pit Boss will be there to help me find the saloution and that is very important for me . Also after i got my Pit Boss 700FB , my wife ran into a salesman somewhere that told her they were getting excellent feed back and recommendation that exceeded their 1,000$ Treager model . I have noticed out of top three manufacturers the other two are filling the internet with their bullshit trying to push Pit Boss out . Pit Boss is the best .

[@oldchevy4x4]

Nice rig!

[@led8541]

thanks

[@LlamaMonster]

Just re-watching stuff... On a side note, those wood pellets are great for traction in the winter time. They're just wood so they don't tear up your grass like salt does.

[@led8541]

thats a good idea thanks

Very Nice!

thanks

[@lynnbyam683]

I have a pitbass the hopper went up in smoke flame on so dont leave them unintended set them a walk away is not a good idea

[@led8541]

Hey Lynn i have had my share of problems also but over all i do like my pit boss thanks for watching

[@jrbarn1472]

Lynn Byam ; I agree don’t walk away from those things mine caught on fire this past weekend. For some reason my pellets came out from underneath the hooper and filled up the bottom of the grill, and the grill caught fire.

[@spankyxl00]

Quick question! When you want to smoke something do you just keep it on the smoke setting or do you have to put it on the certain heat your looking for? Im confused how to keep the temp where you want it but also keep it on smoke option. thanks!

[@led8541]

the best temp for smoking for me is at 180 which is the lowest setting some people use 220 the smoke is automatic because you use wood pellets. if you set it up to 350 or 400 it will feed more often and keep the flames rolling hard which in turn makes less smoke i use 350 to 400 when i do steaks it does a great job on them. i hope this helps

[@spankyxl00]

thank you so much & great video! 1 last question. when you first ran the grill did you have any issues? Ive read some reviews that people have had issues with the system not feeding into the hopper right away (or something like that). thanks again!

[@JesuisParte]

damn this is the perfect tool for barbecues. let me come over.. I fly from Germany haha great video I wish you so much fun with it

[@led8541]

You don't want to use that white smoke that comes out of the grill right after a startup...

Sweet unit. Kinda want one of those myself. If I get one more grill I might get kicked out of the house though
