I think you're right on this, but I think the phraseology is lost today. I had to stop using "never look a gift horse in the mouth", no one knew what I was saying, I thought it was clear.

Hey, it's great to hear from you, it's been a while. The channel seems to be making it's way through the people I know, if I'm ever back in the Steinbach area I'll look you up.

You're most welcome Ron, let me know if you try them what you think.

That's a fair comment, keep in mind these were cooked from frozen, and I do have the direct heat chamber closed, I prefer it this way so I can chuck the meat on, and walk away, not come back to a remake of the movie backdraft. Cooking the same burger on gas to the same doneness took the same time when I tried it or any meat when the temps were the same. We did keep our gas bbq for a season because no one had a pellet grill at the time and we had no idea if we'd like it. I have a friend who leaves his direct heat open all the time and goes max heat, I guess to each their own, this is just how I like it I guess. Whatever you do, keep on it, and thanks for taking the time to comment!

I've never tried to add the app, I just add the devices and control them remotely on hubitat. 100% reliable so far.

@@HouseDadLife if tuya zigbee devices work well with hubitat, then there's no need for me to buy tuya gateway to run them. I just have to rely on habitat for ease and proper automations. Correct?

Exactly

ROFL!!

I'm looking for as close to a theatre at home type of experience.

@@HouseDadLife i understand haha, im planning in short term to replace my old 40 inch Sony with the X90L but in size 55inch, i cant stretch my budget enough, in europa the 55x90l costs €1199 at this moment

I upgraded from a 10 year old Tv, what a difference, enjoy your new setup! I'm loving mine.

You're welcome!

Maybe I should have clarified, I'm referring to the flavour you get from the fat dripping down and vaporizing, there's still some smoke flavor from that. As far as the wood smoke flavour, yeah there would be none of that on a gas grill. You're also right about smoking, at the time I made this video I had smoked almost nothing on it. Currently that's changed in a big way, it's become my favorite and probably most used option on it.

I use no covers and just let the rain in. Once you've added as much water back that's in the reservoir, do a complete flush and change out the solution and you're gtg.

I'm pinging a local address, not an internet address. The hubitat is on a ups along with my router the device I'm pinging is not. Hopefully that helps you, and you're welcome for the videos.

@@HouseDadLife Ah I see. It makes sense now that the router is on a backup power source as well

You're welcome Ron!

Wow, I'm really sorry to hear that. I feel like I don't take very good care of mine. It gets cleaned when I have trouble with it lighting or coming up to temp. It does get covered after every use, and I do let it go on max for about 10 min anytime we cook anything on the grill, that's it. Hopefully you have better luck in the future.

You bet it can! And you'll get the benefit of foliar feeding.

You're welcome for the video and thanks for sharing the burger. In regards to your question I do clean it out about once a month on average sometimes as little as 2 times a season, anytime it doesn't light right away or has any difficulty coming up to temp that's how I can tell its due.

Glad you enjoyed it! I'm more than happy to receive free gifts from worksharp, but I must say, I was really happy to be able to restore that blade even though it took a long time.

I appreciate the feedback, thanks. I have never tried bio bizz, I'm actually still in the process of using up all of the test products I've accumulated.

I just checked mine, you can!

I'm pretty happy, best part is, now that I have irrigation, it's been raining weekly.

This was totally just me being curious.

Makes sense, I think they are supported by Homey Pro, the Lutron that is, but I could be wrong.

I've used it and enjoyed it, you can find a video about it here, different results than expected, I think it would be a solid cloning liquid but at this time I don't clone.

Good to know, that actually explains some conversations I've had. Thanks for the insight.

I hate showing up to a BBq and they hand me a plate with hamburger and hotdog I’m like where the BBQ

Glad I could help.

Coming down, might go for a swim in the bay if this keeps up.

@@HouseDadLife Lol. 🏊🏻‍♂

Lol, I forgot I did that until you reminded me. And you're welcome.

I likely have, that's what happens when you don't get into a routine on anything and are constantly testing.

You're welcome, glad I could help.

That's good information thanks for sharing your experience.

There is no monthly fee, the storage is held on the base unit. You can upgrade to a cloud option, but you can stay totally free which is what I'm doing.

@@HouseDadLife Helps a lot, thank you! My mother started getting paid for helping people on the internet, back in 1999, just as you’re doing! Here’s to your kindness!

Cheers!

czcams.com/video/Cvjkqi8WL2A/video.html I just scrub the grill, never wash it in soap. I've heard the ideal is to season it, but I never have and it's still looks like new minus some really baked on stuff.

I've got no experience with the kettle or pot style charcoal bbq's but I've definitely interested. I feel like I'm still trying to master the pellet grill, or maybe bbq in general. I've been all over the US and there are some mind blowing bbq places out there. Maybe that's how I level up my game. Either way, it sounds like you've got what you want to achieve dialed in, cheers to that.

@@HouseDadLife the only difference between pellets and charcoal is the extremely high heat and ability to char, my pit boss has a small area for direct flame that does a decent job. The flavor of lump or briquettes can be had in a pellet grill by wrapping your coals in aluminum foil and heating them up then just let them smoke in the chamber while you cook. This keeps all the ash in the foil for easy cleaning. If you really want good food look at stick burners, they require more attention but man they put out great food.

I've only cooked on a stick burner once, it turned out well despite the wobble pops that were had. Thanks for sharing the charcoal tip, I can see myself trying that out. For the stick burner we ended up using applewood, added a great flavor to the meat, I could see you really being able to customize how you cook here.

@@HouseDadLife that’s the beauty of the stick burner, but you work for it lol. You can add wood chips to your pellet grill the same as charcoal for extra flavor. Some types of pellets are real light on smoke flavor.

You know Ron, when I edit these videos I often wonder who will say something about random things in the background. And maybe I do. Ha ha ha, enjoy the long weekend.

@@HouseDadLife Lol. You enjoy as well David. Cheers.

Thanks Steve, I'm glad you found the video useful, enjoy the long weekend!

I'm glad I could help!

Yeah I would have no issue with that, can't remember if I have or not for brisket. If I bought a new one I'd probably watch it a few times before I let it go overnight.

25 hours, now that's commitment. Nice work, what temp did you end up cooking it at?

I don't pretend to understand why it works, I just have white clean roots and no rot using it, it solved my root problems, that was all I was after.

Thanks Hydro, plants are looking good! Can't wait to see how they go! Nice to see you on here.

I had root troubles until great white, since then, none, for years. 30 min feed at 8 am, 12 pm and 4 pm daily.

@@HouseDadLife got this. you have great results so i get it. perhaps plant roots are free from pest/disease by the inoculation. do the bacteria and fungi survive the whole process? i mean up to harvest. or only up to what point? do you re-inoculate during the grow? mygreathanks and blessings

Anytime I do a reservoir change it gets another dose, but I use way less than it says.

That was exactly my thoughts, I hope you enjoy it as well!

How is the off angle viewing at night with table lamps on?

There is reflection you'll notice on dark scenes at off angles. If you're only a bit off it's tough to see.

@@frodomom You have to be really off angle to notice a decrease. There is some glare on lights but not very bad. Has great color.

I was trying to make it subjective, choose before you knew. Oh well...

Glad you enjoyed the video, they are both great hubs, and things I like that the other doesn't do. Currently I'm enjoying having them both, but if the local thing bothers you with hubitat the homey is much more network dependant.

No pellet grill repairs anywhere close that I'm aware of. A definitely agree that wood or charcoal is the way to go. I do charcoal sometimes, but it's been rare since I've got the pellet grill. Happy grilling either way.

Glad you enjoyed!!

I'm glad you found the video helpful, it's always nice to read comments like this. Enjoy your pellet grill, I'm about to fire mine up to have ribs for supper.
