Bullseye 1st cook on bullseye unsuccessful

[Bradman]

My bullseye wouldn’t hold a consistent temp. I started it up and set it to 225. It stayed there for a little while, then it when up to around 400. Then it would cool itself down to the 120’s before heating back up to 350-500 and repeat the whole process. It teeter tottered all day. What am I doing wrong?

Assuming it's a new grill. Call RT Customer Service in the morning. Sounds like you might have a bad controller. Also, double check that the cable that plugs into the controller is properly/tightly seated

Auger feed rate?

I changed it to 7.0 and now it’s working fine. After many hours of watching YouTube videos, I tried that and that did the trick.

I have a bullseye, I did that when created my profile. Now I can‘t figure out how to change it. I did howev fix my problems. I changed the auger speed to 7.0 and now it seems to be working how it’s supposed to.
