I’ve been having a consistent problem. My smoker does fantastic smoking, but the minute I take it above 275, I start to burn back into the auger as soon as it begins to cool down (when the fan kicks in). Here’s what I’ve tried to remedy:
•ensure smoker vents are clear
•clean out barrel and fire pot
•clean drip tray and grates
•remove non-factory seal
•providing additional air flow by keeping the probe hole open
•switching FROM lumberjack comp blend TO pit boss comp blend
I still seem to be having the same issues. Anyone have other trouble shooting ideas? At this point, when I have to bring the smoker to a higher temp to clean it, I have been removing all the pellets from the hoper preemptively (which, tbh is pretty obnoxious) and burning through all of the remaining pellets, then running the auger to push the ashes out and pull new pellets in after it cools down.
Help?
