Pit Boss Austin XL 1000 Assembly, burn off and getting started with your new pellet grill...

[@Gunsnob762]

Thanks for the detailed video, it didn’t quite take me 20 minutes with pausing the video and completing the build step by step. But this video really made the process 10x easier

[@morgangentle1515]

I’m just happy everyone is still alive after all of this.

[@loveme29]

You’re the “BEST”,man with your verbal step by step instructions. On how to assembly this Pit Boss Austin XL grill. You’re just awesome.

[@vaughnprecision]

Thank you.!

[@matthewcooper9014]

So I just got my smoker. Used the manual. Went together fairly easy. Only thing I questioned myself on was the diffuser plate. It said to pull the screws. Drop it in then reinstall. I was like ummm. It fits over the screws. Thought I did it wrong or missing washers. Watched your video after then felt better lol. Hope you're still loving it. Still need to do the pre burn and start cooking!.

[@vaughnprecision]

Love the grill still, just made a tri tip on it.!

[@lloydstevens1603]

Instructions are bad I'm glad we didn't follow them

[@rubenpalacios1801]

I just put mine together and noticed that too. Oh well glad to know I wasn’t the only one. Just finished the first burn. Cant wait to get some meat on there

[@splb5628]

Thank u so much. Made the A simulation so easy. I’m about to turn my on God bless you brother

[@mattbernhagen9294]

Pit boss has streamlined assembly over the last two years. Thank goodness! I was able to assemble solo.

[@carolynmburns3646]

I just bought one going to try to install myself. Your instructions are amazing. Thanks. Will let you know how it goes.😉

[@vaughnprecision]

Glad it helped out.! Hope you enjoy it, I know I’m still using mine all the time.

[@mannyj8805]

I purchased this grill yesterday and put it together before viewing your video. I referred to your videos to ensure I assembled the components in the drum correctly, and I did. Thank you for your video. I found it clear and to the point. Nice job and happy grilling all.

[@vaughnprecision]

Smoking a brisket as we speak, I’ll still enjoying the grill, hope you do to.!

[@cactuskid1950]

I've done a few cooks on mine since I bought it 3 mo ago and love it. So easy, just set your temps, plug in your probes. This smoker really frees us up to do other things. Today 1/2 brisket just went on. It'll be done for supper tonight.

[@lub6021]

Thank you so much for guiding a single mom thru putting this together! Life saver

[@vaughnprecision]

Glad to hear it helped out, enjoy cooking on it.!

[@richarddavies9793]

This was so helpful. I'm in the UK and I've just purchased this Pit Boss unit. I'm terrible at putting things together (I even struggle with IKEA furniture) so this tutorial was a great step by step guide for an idiot like me. I've just watched your brisket video too so I'll be trying that out too. I'll buy you a pint to say thanks next time you're in the UK. Cheers

[@vaughnprecision]

Glad it helped you out.! Happy grilling

[@lanceschul]

I had a Traeger and spent more time replacing parts than I did cooking. Ended up taking it back to Costco and bought a RecTec. Phenomenal grill. Pellet grilling is the way to go.

[@vaughnprecision]

5280 Reloader I’m loving the pellet grill

[@lanceschul]

Vaughn Precision great! Pizza, jerky, bacon egg and cheese quiche. The possibilities are endless. And tonight it’s elk on ours!

[@megvandernoord178]

Thanks for the in depth instructions! Got it all assembled earlier and I could not find anything about the burn off. Appreciate the video.

[@lannitarandle9921]

Bought mine and finally put it together after a month. (Texas heat). Your instructions are spot on! Thanks for taking the time to do this.

[@sfritzen2498]

Very helpful. Spent some quality time with my dad putting this together. Your video was a great help.

[@CarlosRodriguez-vg2ob]

I just got the pit boss Austin XL and I wanted to thank you very much for making this video. I did not have to look at the instructions once. this is by far one of the best unboxing video i have ever seen,. you made putting this grill together an actual enjoyable moment. lol thank you so very. much

[@vaughnprecision]

I appreciate the feedback and thanks for watching the video, I'm happy to hear it helped out! Enjoy the new grill, I still love mine!

[@rogersierra265]

No way it took you 20 minutes! Took me about 2 hours lol I hate putting things together and reading directions especially when the directions aren't super easy and detailed. Thanks for the video! This things been sitting in the box for months because I dreaded having to put it together 🤦🏽‍♂️ your video walk through helped alot!

[@garymedrano3076]

he said, I had to go buy a pellet smoker. Because we are getting older. I have three smoker. I know why I'm buying one. Been thinking about this for a month or so. Going to get one today. You help me make up my mind. Thank you for the video. I did hit the Subscribe button. Have a good day.

[@jeremyflowers9363]

Glad you had a good time assembling it. It took me about two hours to assemble, and nothing lined up. I had to eventually drill a couple of holes. I love the smoker, but assembly for me was a real bear.

[@Moolz]

Good stuff, thanks guy! Better than the official video which missed a few small head scratching steps. I just stopped that video in the middle and watched all of yours. Much appreciated.

[@vanessakdavis9520]

Thank you for showing the slide. Noone else does n it's important

[@pauly118jenkins]

Just purchased one of these in the UK. Brilliant tutorial, thanks

[@colejc2005]

Thanks for showing the priming and first burn process this video made set up really easy!

[@dahut3614]

That looks a lot nicer than my Green Mountain Daniel Boone. I've done a couple turkeys- the grocery store was giving one away with a $100 purchase. Great smoky turkey chili. I actually did a spiral ham and it came out great. The bucket doesn't really catch ash, more like creosote. I found that I needed to vacuum out the burn pot because the ashed built-up, so now I do it before every use. If you put something cold in there, cover it with foil until it warms up a bit or the smoke will condense leaving a sooty residue.

[@benjaminsaldivar5668]

Thank you so much for the detailed video! I used it to put mine together and was up and burning in no time

[@cjcsr1]

Just got my Austin XL put together. Thank you for detailed start up. It's very informative. Exactly what I needed! Thanks👍👊👊!!

[@TheOzarkian]

This helped me today, thank you. Hope you are doing well.

[@jeremiahcalligan7203]

Awesome video, watched it and didn't even think about grabbing the instructions.. Very detailed brother.. 💯

[@deansmith3552]

Man!!! I'll tell you I never put together anything that fast, I never looked at my instruction book at all. Hay a big thanks to you dude I'm ready to start cooking, see you on the dark meat side

[@bradheerschop2316]

Thanks, man. Setting mine up tomorrow. Gonna have to find a neighbour to help me lift it on, I don’t think my 3 year old will be much help. I’m debating if I can just lift it myself, I’m not a small man, but I don’t want to kill myself for this smoker.

[@vaughnprecision]

Get help, it’s awkward to lift

[@stevenmcelveen3846]

Just bought one today for 208 was shocked at the price thanks for the cook off

[@kentaylor7428]

thank you brother bought one yesterday your video was helpful had it together in no time have a blessed day!!

[@johndepweg4029]

Thank you. I just got done putting mine together. Didn't even have to look at the instructions lol

[@brentowen676]

Thank you for a wonderful step by step video!! I just bought my first smoker yesterday which was the Pit Boss AustinXL too! You made it easy to follow and put this together by myself. I’ll be checking out some more videos on tips and recipes. Thanks brother!

[@_blueboy95_]

Definitely a lil different than your usual setup Thanks fellas

Wow. Thank you. Just got mine and thank you for your well done video. Couldn’t have done it better. Appreciate it very much. 10/10. 👍🏽👍🏽

Thank you very much. Great information to getting my pellet grill started. I got one for Father's day and looking forward to smoking a brisket today

Thank you for explaining the priming step better than any other video. 👍🏻

[@newinvestor4717]

Many thanks for making that task a whole lot easier. 😁🙏

[@desmondmreid]

Great video. My only problem with the install was when installing the barrel. Had to loosen one of the center pieces between leg to get the holes to line up then tightened back up. Now onto the burn in

[@rodtaylor62]

Thanks for for putting it together with me

[@BarlowBBQ]

Nice!! I'm looking at one of these for my next cooker, hope you enjoy it!

[@vaughnprecision]

Barlow BBQ I still love my Weber kettle but it’s sure nice to have a little more control with less baby sitting. I’ve got several friends and my brother who own these and they all love them. I finally broke down and bought one.! I don’t regret it at all.

[@Scott-vc7ez]

Very good video, thank you for taking the time to make it.

[@bmouva]

great video! Mine just got delivered today. Cant wait to set it up, thanks for the tips!

[@caseysimpson1806]

Great job on this video. Looking hard at this model or a 700. Seems like the extra size can come in handy.

[@vaughnprecision]

@@caseysimpson1806 it’s rather large and heavy, if you don’t plan on feeding a bunch of people frequently I’d seriously think about the smaller version. Just my 2 cents.

[@davequerry1673]

I watched you video every step of the way while putting mine together! You helped me all the way through thank you very much and God bless

[@ror3999]

. Thank you sir for an easy to follow video. Great job.

[@vaughnprecision]

I'm glad it's helped so many folks out, happy grilling/smoking! I just used mine the other day for a 15 hour brisket.!

[@hadleyslife7351]

Great vid.. thanks. Helped me out a lot. I’m so impressed with this thing.. I’ve seen others say it doesn’t keep temp.. I’m guessing they didn’t wait long enough. Mine went up to 340 on the digital screen and 325 on the thermometer.. 15 mins later they were both dead on 300

[@markramsey9949]

Thank you so much. You made assembling so easy.

[@KingWing26]

First off thank you for the clean visual guide. I'm much more a visual person just need to see it once then I'm set. I'm currently sitting outside doing the initial burn off. How picky with pellets is this grill? As long as I buy namebrand I'll be fine? Also have you noticed the temperature fluctuation being a problem? Mine is set at factory settings @300 degrees. Yet the digital is reading fluctuating around 350-355. I've read about it on forums but half the crowd is crying foul parts while the other half is saying it's normal and they are happy. First time pellet grill owner, I've never owned anything but a $40 weber charcoal grill for the past 20 years haha so this is all new territory for me.

[@vaughnprecision]

I’ve only run the pit boss brand pellets so far so I can’t say how others would run. The temps on mine do fluctuate 10-15 degrees but I’ve noticed it more when the wind is blowing or when you get temp swings outside. I know I run about 160 deg on the smoke setting early morning but in the afternoon that same setting might hit 190 if the sun is beating down on the grill. Either way I rely more on the meat probes and adjust based on that. This is also my first pellet grill, for years I ran the Weber kettle and still do.! That Weber will never die. But I’m also very happy with the pellet grill, especially for those long cooks like a big brisket.!

[@KingWing26]

@@vaughnprecision thanks for the quick reply. I think I just over primed it and filled the burner with pellets because it's staying within 10 degrees of my settings now. I bought a bag of Kingsford pellets so hopefully everything burns proper. Cooking some chicken marinated overnight in minced garlic and lemon juice as I type.
