Some interesting reading on whether to seal or not to seal. I think I’m going to give it a try, since it will not void the warranty. Also, going to lower the auger feed rate, like others have done, after putting the seal on. I’m hoping this will also help with an issue I’ve had at times where...

@Greg Jones --- Yeah, I've visited their website and looked at their photos, but only 1 photo showed the 2 1/2" notch and you only see one side. However, I looked at their video and when they held up the Heavy D, you could see both ends and both have the 2 1/2" notch. Plus, when I was thinking...

Thanks @NU2SMOKE , I really appreciate it..

I've been looking at the Heavy D diffuser, since my deflector shield is also warped. Got a question: Will it fit the "Bull"? The 2 1/2" bottom cutout on one side will fit ok in the front, but how wide is the cutout on the other side? If it's the same 2 1/2", then it won't fit the Bull, since...

@Buckeye smoker --- Have you received a response yet from RT about your deflector shield?

@Uncle Bob --- great idea, hadn't thought of that. @Buckeye smoker --- Looks like our deflector shields are twins. I also get a measurement of about 3/4" on the left side of the shield. (See picture #1 below) I decided to do a test to see if the warped deflector shield was affecting the...

@Buckeye smoker ... No, not yet. I plan on measuring it within the next hour or two. I did, however, try to put my fingers between the drip tray and shield deflector to see if the two were touching. They were not, but it "seemed" the clearance was about 1/4"-1/2". Since you can't fully see the...

@dsandersus .. I hear ya... The support staff was super nice but didn't want to push the issue of an immediate replacement. I'm going to see if it affects the ambient temperature any. Thinking about using the 2 meat probes inside pushed completely thru a half or quarter potato to hold them in...

@Buckeye smoker .. I just got off the phone with Rec Tec. They have heard of this (warping) happening before, but rare. They said it shouldn't affect the temperature any, UNLESS it continues to warp to where it actually touches the bottom of the drip tray. If it gets to that point, there is a...

@Buckeye smoker .. I'm going to call Rec Tec today.. I'll be sure to let you know what they say..

Was replacing the aluminum foil on the drip tray after the 3rd cook. When I took the drip tray out, I noticed something didn't look right. The deflector shield was warped, see picture. Is this a problem? Since this defects heat, will this now deflect heat more to one side than the other...

Oops... Sorry for this thread... Did a search about pellet storage before I wrote this thread and didn't find anything. However I found some comments about this issue this afternoon, so I'm not sure what went wrong on the earlier search. Anyway, my bad...

Can a manual pallet lifter get to the back of your house? Sidewalk, etc? Once it's off the truck, they should be able to transport the pallet to wherever you want.

Have a dumb question --- I bought several 5 gallon buckets (w/ lids) to store my pellets in. Question now is -- where can I store the buckets to keep the pellets as fresh as possible? I know weather can play a role in the "breakdown" of the pellets. I've got 2 outdoor buildings, but they can...

@JazzGMster --- glad your grill finally arrived. @dsandersus is correct..go get a fan and blow the smoke towards your neighbor!! ? My Bull arrived about 45 minutes ago. Had to make a quick decision though. Rain was all around my home and was expecting to get rain within the hour. I didn't...

Hi @Thutmose, I hope yours is on the way too! Wouldn't you know it--- 30 minutes after posting my "update", I got an email from RecTec that the status on my grill changed to "shipped"!! lol.. Anyway, good luck and hope your Bull arrives soon!

UPDATE:---- Well, I just got a call from the local trucking company about delivering my RecTec stuff tomorrow between 12pm-4pm!! I'm ecstatic, but am very confused about what transpired over the last week. I'm currently looking at my order "status" on RecTec's website and it still says...

Thanks JazzGMster.... Wow!.. Your's got picked up within 2 days, that's great! Just checked the status on mine, and it's still "Awaiting Pickup". So, it's going on 3 days now since last Friday (not counting the weekend). Oh well, as I mentioned earlier, I'm just going to patiently wait...

Thanks for all the replies.. I knew residential deliveries by freight truck would be different than the other residential carriers, but just thought it would've been "picked up" by now. Anyway, I am relieved that this is kind of the norm, and will patiently wait for its arrival. Thanks again...

Hi everyone.. New to this forum and looking forward to using the Rec Tec grill (once I get it) to it’s fullest potential. Have a question—- what’s the normal timeframe after placing your order that you can expect delivery of the grill? I realize the state you live in will be a factor. I...
