No they did not take the old pellets back because they are useless. Just make a call and they will replace what was bought. I have had a few cooks (one 23hr smoke) with the other manufacturer pellets and have not had a problem since. I have been working with the company trying to get a solution...
When you put the ribs on the grill you want to push the ends of the slab together this aligns the bones straight up and down and supplies the most meat on each bone after being cut. Your pull back is more consistent and even when this is done. Once you have placed them you do not want to move...
I wanted to cook a couple of slabs and a butt for this afternoon since my wife could not make it to my last event. Started the grill and everything was going well. When I went to put the meat on I noticed the temp was at 147. I always clean the grill after I smoke so I knew it couldnt be the...
After 23hrs the smoke was done. No issues at all. The max temp outside was 96. I’ve learned with this grill the more meat the longer it’s going to take
This smoke has taken longer than expected good thing I planned a 6hr buffer. Overall I could not be happier even though the app will not record temps of a smoke going well into the next day (started erroring out after 16hrs so I cant see the history). Below are notes I took up until this point...
I am finally on the first of one of many big smokes I have to do this summer. Right now I have 8 butts smoking and I am 100 mins in at 225 without an issue. Currently it is 91 degrees outside. I will be adding 15 slabs of ribs to the grill early in the morning to finish the job up. I’m...
I feel his pain. From the beginning my feed rate was at the lowest temp and always burned too high. If he smokes before I do post the results. I have been through everything and still get the same results. Hopefully these pellets do the trick. They no long give or sell the other pellets with the...
It has been a couple weeks since an update. I finally got a chance to grill today. Last week I went to RT because they have supposedly found the issue with the temp. I was told there are 2 different manufacturers of there pellets and one was burning too hot. I went and picked up 2 bags of the...
I talked with RecTec on Thursday and apparently someone else is having the same issue as I am. I was told they are trying a few things and will get back with me. At the worst they will make a house call.
Come the 3rd I am just going to return it if they have not figured it out. I have too many...
Your first point is spot on. I do not know how many they have sold, but I assumed it’s not many since the forum is not as active. I do know there are some out there and hope they get on so I can get reliable feedback from other BFG owners. It looks to me that the other grills are doing just...
So I grilled yesterday around 8 hrs. The first couple hours temp stayed at 275. The next two hours it fluctuated from 289- 298. For the first 4 hours the top was not opened by anyone. I put the ribs, Mac and cheese, and cabbage on then left for church.
Once I came home I put the chicken on...
I went to RECTEC today to speak with them and was told it may be something in my settings.
They wanted me to call them once I got home to go through some checks. When I got home I went through the checks and they had me change the temp calibration setting back to 0 (I had it on 5 because it was...
I picked up my BFG 2 weeks ago and was told the order has been completed they are waiting on shipment. Might be coming from China as long as it’s taking to come in.
