Well, the final result was a great pile of pork! But the chunks didn’t really play a role. 14 hrs @225 and the chunks barely even turned colors. A little char on bottom, but I doubt there was any actual smoke coming from them. Will maybe try inside the deflector sitting beside firepot and see if...

Also some on Recteq Mafia are saying they regularly do this and one even said he covers the entire deflector with chunks. Hopefully it works out.

Perhaps, but hopefully no bigger than the fire coming from the firepot itself.

Ok. As long as no negative results (fires, etc.), it may be worth a try.

Thinking about sitting these apple chunks directly on the cast iron heat deflector of my newish 590. I have only found one thread about this and people start suggesting smoke tubes or they did it with the older style deflectors. Just wondering if anyone has tried or had success or failures...

Sweet! That is very nice. Love my 590, but think the factory shelf isn’t anywhere near as nice as what you’ve got here anyway.

Good luck. I LOVE baked beans but did not like these at all. Of course I ended up eating them but would not buy again.

So today was the day my 590 got it’s new shelf installed! My brother found an old stair tread at his house and gave it to me. Get this, was perfect size as it sat for a number of years. Not one bit had to be trimmed off. He sanded it up, and we just put some satin polyurethane sealer on it that...

Can’t reply to a griddle on the 590, but would absolutely recommend get a Blackstone and be done with it. My Blackstone griddle is a perfect compliment to my 590.

My cramped garage. Just roll whatever grill going to use to the edge of the garage, roll back in when done. Also have my Vision grill on back patio.

Did turbo sliced butt today.

Prolly should have but didn’t have any. Just doing some ribs for my first cook.

“Manual auger feed”? Could you explain please?

New RT 590 assembled and doing initial burn. Assembly was a breeze, app connected immediately, so off we go!

Just curious, but how do you know when it’s necessary to clean out due to clinkers? What’s the giveaway that there’s an issue?
