I should clarify that the “Actual Temp” is showing 225 degrees which matches the “Set Temp.” But when I measure the temp, I get something much higher. The higher temps are also evident in my cook times. No “slow and low” here. I may just have to get over it but was hoping to have a smaller unit...

It’s not working out at all. Set at 225, it’s running up at 300. Pretty bummed. Have owned a 680 for 8-10 years with little to no issues. I’ll keep playing with it but just wished it had worked out of the box.

Thanks. Working on it now. I now know why I was able to finish 3 racks of St. Louis ribs in 90 mins when I had temp set at 225. When it’s set at 250, temp is actually 395! Yikes! That’s a 58% difference. I don’t think that is even available. I guess I’ll just max it out to 20. Ugh.

Thanks. Working on it now.

To calibrate, did you just run through the Test Mode and Settings instructions on Page 13 of the owner’s manual?

I used my Bullseye for the first time last night. Three racks of St. Louis ribs done at 225 for 90 minutes. Yep, that’s it. And I should have pulled them at 75 minutes. Mine is running way too hot.
