Hi All - I recently (accidentally) removed the light housing from my Bull while trying to temporarily remove the light cover. I already had everything off when I realized that the lens just pops off for cleaning. Anyway, in the process of trying to get it back in I accidentally broke the wires...
I have them on extreme smoke right now and it's running about 180. There is a good blue smoke going on. I didn't fool with hooking up probes for steak but I will check them with the thermopen in about an hour. Tonight's journey involves using the sear plates for the first time and I wasn't...
Good Sunday afternoon to everyone. I'm using my BFG for the first time today and I'm having trouble keeping a steady temp, its running about 45 degrees warmer. I have the feed down to the min 3%. If the BFG is sitting in direct sun (about 85 outside temp) can that have an effect on the temp...
Im in hour 9 of a cook and the fan is starting and stopping. Temp seems ok, but odd that is doing a fan burst of 5 seconds on then off. Stops after 5 minutes, temp is not fluctuating. Dont know how normal this is. After a bit the fan runs continuously for about 5 minutes and then back to the 5...
Well, after researching and researching and waiting and well.......researching. I finally chose the RT-700 over the Yoder YS-640s. The deciding factor? #1, the supposed superior PID temp. controls of the Bull, #2 the 4th of July bundle sale. I waited until my competition cart base (on back...
Absolutely love my new Bull and after several successful ventures decided to take on the "Dreaded" brisket! Result not good! I am hoping someone can tell me what I did wrong. Purchased a 5 lb brisket at Sams Club as my first experiment, rubbed it with olive oil and Hefter rub, placed it on...
Was cruising around the RECTEC site and noticed all their grills have lost their names and now only being referred by their model number.
Anyone else notice that?
I have a TON of rubs from previous smoking experience. But am completely new to Rec Tec.
My favorite rubs now include Meat Church All Purpose and Holy Cow. Also love Bad Byron’s Butt Rubb, and Killer Hogs....Plowboys Yardbird is another staple.
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...
Contemplated on getting a Grilla Silverbac....Then saw Rec Tec....then saw the bull and wondered if I wanted to spend the extra money....Then the 4th of July sale hit...and I gave in and bought the Bull with the July 4th sale.
I've never smoked anything before....while I have been around people...
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...
Hi, my RT680 leaks a lot of smoke out of the top and bottom when the lid is closed. Is this normal? I just purchased it from someone and thought all the smoke should come from the smoke stack?? Any thoughts?
I wanted to have searing a little quicker. So I added the Camp Chef sear station to the side. Had to add some aluminum from home Depot where the handle mounts to clear the stack. Was able to reattach the handle on the side of the sear station. I also added a cord reel under the controller.
There was commentary in another thread in the last couple days about materials of the cooker. I just want to verify what I believe I've seen elsewhere but haven't verified. Does a magnet stick to the stainless body of the Bull barrel? Please, no assumptions, I'd prefer an actual test. Thanks.
So let's backup a sec...
Received my Bull on Thursday and wasn't pleased with the condition of the shipping box when it arrived. (Top was smashed and two inner parts boxes were slight smashed also) none of which is Rec Tec's doing of course.
Have some minor issues with the unit.
power cord has...
So I downloaded and installed the rectec mobile app. I have LastPass installed and it stores pswds. When I went to look at the setup, the dns for the backend was http://rectecgrill.ym.com. Can someone confirm that ym.com is safe? Is that who they got to make the mobile app? The entire site looks...
