Outlet Plug Damage

Outlet Plug Damage

As you can see in the photo the metal tip of the ground prong has broken off but most of the ground prong remains. Is this still safe for use or is repair required? If I do need to repair should I replace the entire power cable or is it fine to only replace the plug?

I have a Pitboss Competition Series 850.

Was out of town for a while wife did a lot of smoking but not a lot of cleaning.

This is where I’m at after about 1 hr of hard cleaning and scrubbing with baking soda and dish soap and vinegar. Got most of the hard gunk off but what do yall think my next course of action in getting this thing back into shape is?? Thanks in advance.

Judgemental are we.

Seems to be some judgemental folks here, just basing their opinions on one photo. Sure getting lots of encouragement here.

You all like fly fishermen? Look down their nose when we catch fish on our spinning rods with a worm?

You all holyer than most folks?.

We enjoy our ribs our way. You don't like that, don't look.

I'm going to refrain from tash talking your crap.

Not impressed what did I do wrong

just got done "smoking" my first pork butt and quite frankly I was far from impressed. the meat turned out super moist and pulled very easily but it had no smoke flavor and no bark. I "smoked" it for 9.5 hours at 250° was about an 8# butt

Pit Boss 4-burner Model PB4BGS1 at Ollie's $249.99 (before coupon)

I saw this Pit Boss griddle at Ollie's today for $249.99. I checked my Ollie's app, and to my surprise, I had a 20% off coupon. Is this thing worth it at $200? It doesn't come with the lid or the side tables.

Surprise Beef Spareribs

For context, I live about 90 seconds away from work.

I was working hard today in the sun at my job. I just finished my last break and said goodbye to my family, as they will be traveling for a few days, and I get one of the best text messages from my wife.

"OK, we are heading out, see you in a few days. I put a rack of beef spare ribs in the smoker for you. They should be just about ready when you get out of the shower after work."

Best. Wife. Ever.

Igniter replaced, still having issues

Just replaced the igniter, it smoked good for a bit then got the ERL. I can hear the auger going but the pellets eventually fill to the top 🫤 fan?

Frustration defines my first pitboss

Got a Austin xl. It took almost 2 weeks to deliver it. Looks beautiful. Auger motor came fucked..unit was also giving electric shocks while turned on. Called warranty. They said 2 parts would be sent. One week later, just got one...and it was broken. I think i regret not getting a traeger

Pit Boss - The Phoenix 🐦‍🔥

Anyone have any experience with this pellet grill model?!

May I introduce to you my pellet / charcoal grill - “The Phoenix” 🐦‍🔥

I really do love this model. Has been a great grill for the past year!

Replacing igniter

I watched a few YouTube videos, do I really have to remove the smoke stack and door clip, empty the pellets, then flip it upside down? Is there an easier method?

Help identifying model

I am wondering if anyone can help identify the model of this pellet grill, we got it a number of years ago second hand and every time I've tried looking it up I find results for ones without the smoke stack or the much more fancy models. It's barrel dimensions are 29.5" x 20"

4-burner ceramic griddle sandblasted

Hey folks! I looked around a bit and didn’t see a post on this, so figured why not?… Got this 4 burner from a buddy who had enough of the ceramic top flaking, so he jumped ship to Blackstone. Lucky for me!

Took this into an another buddies shop and hit it with the sandblaster. Took me about 2 1/2 hours to get it pretty well cleaned up (we were talking a lot haha). 4 coats of avocado oil on high heat, followed by a flat top full of onions and I’d say it seasoned up damn good! So if you’re tired of eating flakes of ceramic, just know there’s definitely an option to keep these griddles in use!

I forgot to take a before pic of the ceramic, but anyone that has one of these… You know what it looked like haha

Drip tray help!

I have a pit past 700. I usually keep the drip tray covered with foil, but I guess when I do that, I lose access to the sear function of my grill. I am relatively new to smoking. I only got the smoker in March. How does everyone else handle this? You just let it build up and clean it later or how do you clean it or what do you do? I’m a little overwhelmed at this part, I’ve done a lot of cooks and I feel like I’ve used a ton of foil.
