So when done grille was only at 200 so I just hit off button, I saw the fan and countdown screen start but got busy and never went back...

    Meat inflation ruining barbecue

    Just returned from the store with my wife, looked for something to put on the rectec. Instead I left with nothing and instead a feeling that it may be time to sell my grille. Not even joking. 8 dollar a pound chuck roasts. 35 dollar eye of round 5-6 dollars a pound. Briskets here are 5 dollars a...

    Sear grates opinions

    I've been holding off on sear grates for my BFG. I wax wondering what everyone thought are the ones from rectec worth it? They are on sale right now. Are there better ones out there?

    Feed rate

    Recently seen video on YouTube about feed rate from Recteq. In video they said grills should come with set at 65? Checked my BFG it was at 10. Changed it to 65...changed smoke output tremendously on low. Fan cycled on off like I would expect at extreme smoke....but it would no longer hold...

    Dirty smoke high heat

    I've noticed that my BFG produces quite a bit of smoke on higher heats, and kind of dirty smoke. Put some pizza on it tonight and the dough kind of got a black color not pleasant looking. My opinion is this is the grill burning of grease and residue from other cooks. Also very cold in Ohio...

    Beast Wheres the Beast and Chuckwagon owners

    Would love to here feedback from Beast and Chuck Wagon owners on results they get with the larger cookers. I own BFG and from my results and others here the larger cookers don't produce great smoke.

    Finding pellet brands

    I live in Ohio and would like to try smokering brand pellets and lumberjack both of which are not available anywhere around here. Could ship from blains farm and fleet?, at least lumberjack. Was wondering how you guys get your hands on these brands? As well as other good brands!

    Smoke output disappointing

    BFG delivered. Put it together. Did burn in. Did seasoning cook with legs and thighs at 400 degrees went great no smoke from BFG but not expected at 400. Did burger and put them on at 180 expected a fair amount of smoke really none to speak of. Finished burgers at 450 great flavor. BFG awesome...
