Yes, I have it also on my regular Bullseye. It's carbon steel and would rust if not seasoned properly. So yeah, just season it until it turns shiny black. I did mine originally with a bees wax paste I found online and other recommended and it worked really good. The one I used was called...

Absolutely you need to season it. Use a high burn point oil like avacado oil(though expensive) or cheaper version of grape see oil. Or you can buy a seasoning paste. Don't listen to RecTeq's instructions. Clean with soap and water first and dry. Then turn your bullseye to 500 and start...

I think "most" of agree with you. This is something that should be pushed to have warranties passed to the next owner as long as their is a way to verify when the grill was purchased. It appears what RecTeq does though is approach them in a case by case basis which from business point of...

I don't have experience but I would give it a shot. The fat you cut off does have value if you want to make beef tallow. But I would just give one a shot and see how you like the way the trimmed the brisket. If you do, then you have an option to go buy one and put on the smoker quickly...

I think you got a defective unit/controller or something else on it defective. Hope the 410 works out for you.

I personally did not follow those instructions when I used it. What I would do because I didn't have wood logs that could do into there, I would add wood chunks however I would line the inter area with foil and poke holes in the foil with the wood chunks in there. This would allow the wood...

The heavy D diffuser is made for a side feed pellet hopper so therefore on the flagship 1100 or on the Bull like I have, it sits lower to the firepot. This will affect the grill getting to high temps from my experience. You could (what I have heard others do) put firebricks to propt it up...

Thanks for all you do Mike. This is my one place for any RecTeq news/tips/etc b/c I don't go on Facebook any longer. I think the change would be for the best.

Update - appears Recteq is on the website and on the app. Just 3 models as I heard it eventually would be. I haven't been to Ace in awhile but definitely going to check out and see if they have any floor models at the two Ace's that I go to. But I would say it would be a mistake to not have...

No, this is not normal. I would definitely call and show them these pics.

I think the issue with leaving uncovered depends on which grill. The Bullseyes or any grill with the vents appears to have issues with rain which I believe includes the 590 now. That being said, my Bull has been uncovered for probably a year. I have a cover I've been meaning to have a...

Hmmmm, i just went to acehardware.com and don't see any RecTeq.

Most comments have addressed here. Brisket flats are tough. Next time I would definitely wrap in either foil or butcher paper. I like butcher paper for briskets. Also, add in some beef tallow to the brisket and paper when wrapping. Those RecTeq probes (in my opinion from what I've seen...

No but it does happen sometimes. I don't know if that is start-up or not but I start my Bullseye with the lid open. And I usually wait a few minutes even when the fire starts with the lid open. This does happen to me from time to time where smoke comes out the hopper. I usually open the...

I used multiple ones on a few of them since they had sent me extras. Not 180, when opening the lid, I believe it goes slightly past 90 degrees. I'm not sure how it could go 180 or flat. I would love to see a pic of that. Seems like we have different issues, if you have a pic, that would...
