I started up my Bull around 16:00 yesterday and set it to 225, then around 01:30 this morning, my alarm notifications started going off and the actual temp was 245 and climbing. I get out of bed and go out and open the lid to let some heat out and everything settled down and normalized back to my set temp. Then 30 min later its back up over 250 again. So I pulled my brisket off and just put it in my oven in the house to finish off.
Owned it since Sept 2019 and never seen this before.
Using RecTec Ultimate Blend pellets
Cleaned out the unit prior to the cook (vacuum & scrapped out)
Had rained earlier in the day but was clear/cool after the sun went down.
I would share the temp chart, but yeah... that still doesn't work on long cooks! (come on one day right?)
What say you? Why did my Bull ramp up temps uncontrolled 8 hours into a cook? Thanks!
