Had my stampede for about a week. Pretty successful with low and slow. No complaints other then typical light smoke flavor. But the selling point for me on this was the ability to sear and cook steaks and burgers. I purchased the searing kit. I tried reverse seared steaks tonight. Everything was going good. Until the sear part came to play. The 590 got up to the right temp. Seared half the meat. But when I open the grill to flip, the temp dropped dramatically. To 315, and never really recovered. Steaks where less then desirable. Almost as if I baked them in the oven. Only seared on one side. I know I’m new to the pellet grill game , but I’m a stickler for following directions exactly. I wasn’t happy
