#Pit

For a close-up look, at what to expect when you first prime your new pellet smoker, or any time you run your pellet smoker empty of pellets

Buddy gave me his that he disnt use. This thing takes FOREVER to get to temp. Its been sitting at 195 for 15 minutes. I setit for 250. Im tempted to toss it and just go bqck to using my wsm 22 for all cooks. Instead of just the long cooks.

[@brianisom2661]

Just received mine so this will be my first use. I turned it on to smoke and it's not heating up. Any suggestions?

[@tammyjobrown2412]

Love my table top. No trouble with mine.

[@silverbackproduction8476]

It's great for cooking steaks

[@theobserver9565]

Had a hopper fire in mine.

[@remounkattoula769]

had the exact same thing happen today

[@silverbackproduction8476]

make sure the unit is level so fire don't burn back into the auger, and / or when done, turn tempt knob back to 150 for five to ten minutes, then shut down

This is my first time using a pit boss I turned it on to see if it works and I see the igniter rod got a red glow to it just wanted to see if it worked will have to do the burn off one of these days and what temp do you turn it to do that

[@silverbackproduction8476]

If you just turned it on for the first time, then you won’t get any smoke or anything because the hopper & auger is empty, to get smoke to start, prime the system. You have to push the prime button to make the auger turn a little bit faster to get pellets down the auger to the burn pot, but if your patient is short, take a half a cup of pellets directly into the burn pot the unit will start to smoke quicker. The pellets in the burn pot will start burning. The auger will continue to feed the burn pot to keep the fire going, just a pro tip…

[@rossamspaugh8637]

Thanks for letting me know plan on trying it out tomorrow

[@TylerKelly-dc3iq]

Mine won’t shut off fully after I turn it to off position I can still hear the fan going

[@scottgilbraith2534]

The fan keeps running to burn up the pellets in the cup.

[@silverbackproduction8476]

that's normal, the fan is going to run for about 15mins to burn all the pellets out of the burn pot, so the pot clear for the next cook...

[@scottgilbraith2534]

Keep your fingers out of the burn pot. The igniter rod gets extremely hot.

[@silverbackproduction8476]

Thanks

[@fredbennett2091]

Is it necessary for priming

[@silverbackproduction8476]

Yes, it gets the pellets burning faster, so you don't get fault codes or you can just drop a fist full of pellets in the burn pot to get started faster...

[@timbowen1563]

Music is crap.
