Yeah, I know it'll cycles to regulate temps. But this was the entire smoke. And it never stopped doing it. The smoker didn't even sound like it was on. It was just weird. It was doing even when temps stabalized.
So, I don't think this is normal. Anyone have a similar issue? During the entire run time at 225° my 1250 sounded like and performed like this. Then at the end of the smoke, black ash everywhere. Recteq believes it to be a fan issue so they have one enroute to me. Didn't even sound like the...
LMAO this happened to me this morning. See my most recent post. I am used to having a Camp Chef where they put an easy to dump pellet pot for ash, clean up, etc. This is something Recteq should consider in the future. Just an easy lever to dump ash so that there is no build up in front of the...
Monday morning brain fart -
I had only smoked on my 1250 four times since my last cook. Nothing major, some breakfast sausage here and there, pork belly brisket style, some ribs, figured it had one more smoke between cleaning out. 🤦🏻♂️
Turn it on this morning, it started heating up, and next...
I was just curious, what temps do y'all set your smoker? I had mine set to about 450, and after about 10 to 15 minutes, they registered around 500 degrees.
Does anyone just turn it all the way to 'High'?
Thanks guys. Yeah, so the pause is normal.
But I have to figure out the actual temp being off. Even the probe is off. I was using probeA and it read 165. But when I used my instant read, it was off about 10 to 12 degrees.
I set the temp to 375. The actual temp was around 430ish, the fan began pausing ever 1 or 2 seconds. "On/off". Is that normal?
Also, anyone notice a difference in temp actuals? I did my burn in at 400, but actual on the 700 vs in the app was like 10 to 15 degrees lower.
Man, just go the shipping notification, coming through Estes. Hopefully won't have any issues. My plan is to have them at least drop it off in front of my garage door, from there I can break it down and put it together in there.
@sdynak - Yeah! Lucky me, 1 day before the price jump! I feel...
