It's 10 mins not hours

1:05 Holding the 'Prime' button does not give the auger a "burst of speed". It prevents the auger from pausing, so the pellets arrive more quickly.

Man thank you so much. Just bought a pit boss pellet smoker at Lowe’s and wasn’t sure how to get it going and this was perfect. I think I might’ve held the prime button too long though because it smoked waaaay to much then kicked on with a bang that sounded like an m80

Also keep the slider CLOSED during burn off so you don’t just cook the lid

Spot on. Just put together mine, and couldn't get it to ignite. I turned it on, dialed to smoke setting, held the primer button. Took forever to get the pellets through the auger and by that time the igniter sequence had completed which made me think the igniter was bad. i then watch a dozen youtubes and read that many forums on igniter troubleshooting. took apart the bottom plate to the hopper, stripped out half the screws, had to drill the heads off, then checked continuity on the wires and connections, all was good, snapped the connection back and tried again. This time the Auger was primmed, pellets were in the pot and away it went!. SO....prime first, then turn the dial to smoke.....lesson learned

Just bought myself a new Pit Boss 1150. Really hoping it has the updated PID controller.

Something else that’s very important is about every few times you cook you want to clean all the ash out of the grill otherwise the ash burns up in the pot and accumulates. I found out the hard way and these grills will smoke excessive and get very hot. Mine blew the lid right open. If you start smoking excessive, turn it to off position, open the lid and let it burn off. Then clean all the ash out and start over. Fantastic smoker grill. I love it. I use it a few times a week going on three years👍.

Excitedly put my pit boss together last night only to immediately notice the auger jammed. I spent about 30 minutes emptying the hopper and clear out the jam. Started it up again and the auger was working, however once I added in the pellets it almost immediately jammed again. After clearing it again and running it without pellets I noticed the auger can be pushed left and right so much so that it seems as though the entire motor turns. The auger moves about half rotation and then bogs down again. Noticing how many other people have this same problem.

Just finished assembling and going through the initial fire up of my new Pit Boss PB1100PSC2 Pro Series Combo Grill. Here are a few observations, for what it's worth. I'm a genuine rookie, so smokers are all new to me. However, after purchasing this from Lowes and getting it home for assembly, I was overwhelmed by the process. If you're like me, a ready, fire, aim kinda guy, you want to make sure to read the instructions, step by step, thoroughly before each step. I tend to think I'm smarter than the engineers who design stuff and get myself in trouble, having to undo/redo steps which is maddening. The instructions are good - not perfect - but good. I found they miss some simple details that could make the whole experience easier, such as alignment points, etc. After getting it fully assembled, I was disappointed that it was so difficult to find this video on first start up. I went through various KZread videos, some good, others not so much. This one by BBQ Bob did the trick - short and sweet and to the point. Now I'm finally ready to throw on some nice fat boneless pork chops for the maiden voyage - wish me luck!

I've got a question? Instead of one auger why not have 2. So you would grill with both augers running and if you shut one side off you can use that for smoking your meat. All the heat is towards the middle but like I said," I'm thinking 🤔 2 would be ok as long as you can shut one auger off for smoking. The chicken, pork, beef, shrimp and fish come out excellent. But am hoping we get that feature soon. My brother does the grilling I investigate the grill. Some times I wish I were an engineer.

I am thinking about buying one for my start up business I have a stick burner right now but want to upgrade

Got a 820 pro for fahters day. This will take my smoking to a new level. Love it

Do you season the inside with cooking spray?

I've read and seen many suggestions about NOT leaving pellet hopper filled after a cook - in humid areas especially (that's me in Illinois I think). Not clearing things out leads to pellet/auger jams. True/False? Suggestions are to empty pellet hopper after each cook. So if that's true, then what are the steps? How would you empty the auger tube after a cook? Or maybe, its not true? Or?

Just got mine puttin it together this weekend

Just fired up my 1000t4 Followed your video. The temps all show difference's of 100 degrees. The lid shows 470. The lid shows 370-380. I also set a probe on the grate reads 366. Any thoughts as to which is correct? Thanks. Merry Christmas

TO PIT BOSS ENGINEERS - Just a couple of ideas for the PB1150PS2. 1) Provide a plug for the 'temperature gauge hole. (.75) - 2) Provide a gasket around the lid. I had to add a fire proof gasket around the inside of the lid to make the lid a little bit tighter (cheap install $10 bucks). 3- Provide a tighter fitting grate or provide notches so the grates can fit in, so they don't slide around. 4- An LED light would be a nice idea. 5 - Hooks on the back to hang the warming rack when not in use. I know the 1600 has that feature. If you can't have the feature in place, atleast have it as an add-on accessory.

@Sauzeisawesome

2 жыл бұрын

What type of gasket did you use? Do you have a brand or specific type you'd recommend?

very cute grill

Does the initial start up involve the cooking grates or not? The manual says to remove all cooking racks.

I love my pitboss 820d3. There is only 1 issue I have. Pit boss decided to make the ports for the stick thermometers a different size then all the rest. So if you have a Thermoworks temp reader, the probes won't fit. So being Thermoworks readers are way more accurate, I can never use the pitboss probes. Every other brand is compatible except for pitboss 🤷

Is there anything that can or should be done to prolong the life of the firebox? I notice mine is getting rather rusty

Also, do I REALLY have to have the door OPEN every time I startup my PS1150PS2 to smoke something? I have guest coming at 6:00 for dinner and it's raining. It's 4 o'clock and it's expected to rain for the next few hours. I didn't have to leave the door open when I Primed it.

Bought the 820 Pro from Lowe’s but had to return it after just 3 weeks. The display faded and never came back. I tried to get to the fuse, but stripped a couple of screws in the process. So back it went and I’m now in the market for a new grill. Just not sure what to buy.

Any idea when after starting the smoker (previously used) how high the time should get before actually setting a temp? Say if I turned it on let it start heating up, how hot will it get? The lowest I can set my cooking temp on my pellet smoker is 200 degrees. Is there a “regulated temp”that the smoker will default to if a temp is not set or will the temp just continue to rise? Does that make sense?

Do you take the inside grill grates out before you do the initial burn off? TY!

I'm not getting any sequence of numbers without the dial off it only does it when you turn the knob to smoke

so help me understand something. the sear plate should be open over the broiler plate during the initial start up until the you get a flame, correct?

Great video- thanks for you time. I have question for you; I bought the Platinum Laredo model last week- it was a display model and did not have an owner's manual, so I found your site and followed your instructions...a big help.

Just purchased a Pit Boss PB1150 PS2 - How can I tell if I have the NEW updated PID controls. I've seen where numerous people have had to send their controls back in to Pit Boss for a new updated control box.

I tried to use mines so many time and it just wouldn't hold the heat. I definitely have to be doing something wrong but I follow every step.

Stupid question when you are ready to smoke, the little lid (inside, it moves left or right and if it’s open you can see the flames) or I don’t know how to call it, do I have to leave it open or closed when I’m smoking the ribs

Do we have to keep the finger on the prime button the entire process?

Thanks for the video

There are several guys saying you need to spray cooking oil on the inside to season it. Is that true?

Can you keep it plugged in all the time???? And can you fire it up to cook a quick burger or steak????

When doing this first burn can you put bacon on all the grids to help season the grill? And how about adding shortening to the inside walls to also help with seasoning?

Am i supposed to leave that internal metal vent in the open to see the flame or keep it closed to smoke?

Newborn question, since is recommended to empty the pellets after every use, does that mean you have to prime it every time or do you leave enough pellets in so you don't have to. Thx in advance

I've got a PB700FB, which I love. Why do I get smoke coming out of the pellet box, where it never used to? Then another problem, after a use, I did a burn off and a cool down per instructions, as I always do. Went to use it next day, auger would start to move then stop. I let it go for about 5 minutes, but nothing happened. Let it go through a shut down and unplugged it then tried to start it again, but same thing happened. Got on KZread and saw how to remove auger. Upon removal, there were burnt pellets about half way back the feeder tube. What causes that? Oh yeah, thanks for giving a better warranty the year after I got mine. You'd have thought you would have offered it to previous customers.

That happened to me the other day smoking out of hopper and auger jam. Came to the conclusion it was the pellets I used. They are called Knotty wood 100% pure Plum Wood. I’m not dissing this company it’s just I owned this pellet grill over 5 years no problems. Seen a U Tube video advertising knotty wood plum, bought the pellets did my cook did notice smoke out of hopper, about a week later ( the other day ) auger jammed full like really hard pellet material. I cleared the auger no issues now. I am hesitant to use those pellets again.

Does anyone know of a video here that shows the proper shutdown method on the Pit Boss 1000 Lareado?

Do you add pellets for the 1st burn?

I'm trying to do the initial burn off on my Pit Boss 440. My Pit Boss 440 DOES NOT have a prime button. What do I do?

I have a brand new pit boss and the auger doesn't even move when I hit the prime button. I can't even get ahold of support.

The controller board which has the digital readout and temp knobs on my Pit Boss Tailgator 340 stopped working after only 7 uses. I called the company and was told the part was backordered for months and that they would send me one when they come in. A month later I called back to find out when the part might be in and was told in a month or so. I am very unhappy with Pit boss not stocking the parts and me not being able to use a fairly new pellet smoker. The person I spoke to was very helpful but that does not fix my broken pellet stove. It may be on the curb next garbage day. One important tip is to take the grill and lower plates off and clean all the grease and residue from the pellets-It caught on fire on my 5th use.

Re: the "not stocking" concern - thousands and thousands of little and big items that are imported to countries, and through ports like LA & Long Beach, CA, have been delayed for a long time due to back-ups at the ports having to do with the actual off-loading of the shipping containers.

Just a real-time, pain-in-the-ass, massive problem getting items from one side of the world to the other, off the ships, into the trucks, out of the trucks and onto stock shelves so the seller can support you with the item you need.

Well I own two pit boss BBQ and up till now they've been pretty reliable, in fact unlike others I've never had an auger jam. Then just this last weekend while doing pulled pork the auger completely stopped turning. I disassembled it to find that the auger screw had backed out and completely shredded the end of the auger. I called tech support to find out my barbecue is 4 months out of warranty and I'm looking at having to spend over $40 in repair parts for a barbecue that's less than a year-and-a-half-old. to put this in perspective my traeger is over 10 years old and I've never had a problem with it. unfortunately the Traeger is too big, my wife and I are traveling the country in our motorhome and we bought the pit boss tailgater as a portable BBQ. For the motorhome. When we're camped out I get a lot of comments and questions about the tailgater and so far all my comments have been positive. In fact I've recommended pit boss to everyone I've met, although I'm not sure I'm going to be able to continue recommending them after this. I like the design of this tailgater and I'm annoyed that the new tailgaters have a 5 year warranty but apparently the tailgater I bought only has a 1 year warranty. Apparently we bought it a month or so before they introduce the 5-year warranty. At this point I'm not sure if I'm going to repair this barbecue or just chuck it in the trash. Sportsman's Warehouse had an interesting line of pellet smokers from Green mountain that looked promising and they came with Bluetooth or Wi-Fi controllers. Good thing I caught this now as I was going to give my son a pit boss for Christmas, I bought him one of the pit boss vertical smokers for a bit over $500 it's still in the box. I might need to rethink that idea, in fact I might just return it as sportsman Warehouse Caries the Green mountain line of smokers, I might look at those instead. I can't have barbecues dying right in the middle of a cook wasting a $100 worth of meat.

Michael, the cover will provide protection from the elements, but be aware, it does not make it waterproof. If it's going to be any longer than a week or so between uses, you'll want to drain the hopper and run the unit until the auger is clear to prevent any auger jams.
