Smoker stopped working after 6 hours first time firing it up
The auger was not turning so we took everything apart and found this rock thing jammed in it. It almost has the same finish as the smoker. Putting the smoker back together and hoping it didnt kill the motor. This thing must have either been in the smoker itself or in a bag of pellets. Regardless I just put my smoker together last weekend. Filled the hopper and did the burnoff this week and just had a pork butt in there for about 6 hours before we got an error code.
Anyone ever have anything like this happen? The grates are fucking useless.
EDIT: Thank god the motor didn't burn out and the smoker is working as it should.
