I am breaking with Thanksgiving tradition and going with a brisket for 10 (~16lb purchase weight) instead of turkey. I want to get the brisket off the RT-590 no later than 4PM I have seen a couple of threads on "Midnight" brisket. One of which smokes the brisket at 180F for ~8hrs or to 160F...

I have learned to live with the right to left temperature differences in my RT-590. Just a fact of design that the right side of the grates is hotter than the left. I put six fire bricks in the bottom of the grill. While these don't seem to make any difference in the L/R variance they do...

Waited for the extreme heat (for Seattle) to calm down before I put 14 lbs of Costco boneless pork butts on the Rt-590 Dry brined the butts for 24 hrs. ( I was going to do 12 but stuff got in the way and had to do longer). Used Meathead's Memphis rub and smoked with Cookin' Pellets "Perfect...

Has anyone actually read the recTeq website privacy policy? It appears they collect everything but your driver's license number but they can probably find that with the info they do collect. Seriously !! This policy is worse than Facebook aka Meta where the policy is "Your privacy doesn't...

I was looking at Aaron Franklin's videos and he cooks his briskets at 250F while Meathead suggest 225F. I have done 225F but on a pellet smoker that I really did not trust the temperature. I seem to have one now that can hold temp pretty well and had a few questions. 1. Will the bark form...

I was prompted to write on a recent cook and include pictures. Well I got 1/2 of it right. Wife suggested that we hadn't had ribs in awhile and not being one to pass up an excuse to BBQ I picked up a package of Swift St. Louis ribs at Costco. Found a nice meaty packet and to the grill I went...

I got this recipe from a Swinomish tribal member in the Puget Sound area. Marinate the salmon fillet flesh side down in enough Tamari (not Soy sauce) and ground ginger ( play with the ginger to taste) to cover the flesh for 20 minutes or so. Heat your RT to 350F. Mild pellets. Alder is...

Temperature on 590 display vs that measured at the cooking grate. I may be getting picky but how many out there have measured the temp of the 590 at grate level and compared it to what the RT-590's display shows via their internal temp probe, say at 225F? I made insulating blocks for my...

Howdy! I have been lurking and asking questions elsewhere but thought I would introduce myself. I previously had a Traeger Lil'l Tex, then had a Louisiana Grills LG-900. I received my 590 w/ Comp cart on Monday and got it burned in yesterday. From what I've seen so far the RT-590 looks like...

I have a 45" high space that my current grill is stored. I was wondering what is the actual, vs specified height of a RT-590 on a competition cart? Specifications say I have 1/2" clearance but that seems really tight if the specs are a bit off on the high side. If someone could put the tape...
