Glad to see it cleaned up and you have a plan moving forward! Thank you for cooking for our lunch and yes, it turned out fantastic!
I think the pan definitely will solve a lot of issues going forward ! Press On! Cheers 🍻
Gotta use the foil tray on bottom rack in my experience, especially if there's a chance you might up the temperature during a long cook.
I definitely will on the next cook. Waiting on replacement parts to come in from Pit Boss.
I'm a PB vet of 4 years... seen this same thing with a single brisket on my 1150... happened to me too. Was the last time I put an untrimmed brisket on... to much fat dripping. Just know it's easily 200+ degrees above your set temp right above your fire pot on these PBs. 575 degrees in your case... It's the unsafe design of having the fire pot directly under the meat. Most other manufacturers have the fire pot on the side where grease can't drip down into the fire pot and catch fire by direct flame. I've seen sooooo many examples of these PB smokers catching fire 🔥... I have lots of photos from the victims... they are all over Facebook. We aren't alone. Buying another vendor smoker this year... a much safer upgrade.... I'd gladly pay more for a safer unit that doesn't burn down my house. No brisket is worth losing the life of a loved one. Or all of my belongings.
What smoker have you decided to go with?
@lonestarsmoked There is going to be a wait I hear... but I'm looking at the Lone Star Grillz 20 x 42" pellet grill. Some version of this, probably with the off-road package. These things smoke like a chimney, will take wood chips mixed with pellets and you can just manually set the auger to run at a constant interval if you want to really douce with smoke. The biscuit test on these are unreal... I'll post pics shortly comparing the PB to the LSG... and the heat retention and recovery from checking your food is super fast I hear. It's either this or a Yoder... but I am seeing I have to spent nearly $10k to $15k on a Yoder to get the same features... and the Yoders STILL have paint problems.... and that's just B.S. for something that expensive. He'll, my $700 Pit Boss has the paint issues solved for... lonestargrillz.com/collections/pellet-smokers-coming-soon/products/lone-star-grillz-20-x-42-pellet-smoker
@columbiariversalmonenhance4050 lone star grilz is just a few miles from where I live. He has a great product! I currently don't own one, but hope to someday.
I have the older version 5 and 7 series. There's no cover on the bottom pan, the water goes in the pan and all drippings fall into the water. The water also adds moisture to the meat throughout the cook. I'll never get rid of them.
Interesting, I wonder why the series 6 is a different design.
@@lonestarsmoked they seem to have redesigned it so the smome comes out of the sidewalls to encircle the meat more, it started with the pro series and I didn't like it because the smome penetration I get is super super deep. I didn't see a need to change. glad I didnt
Have you ever had a fire or grease issue?
@@lonestarsmoked never
@@lonestarsmoked i would maybe try a test cook without the plate on. I'm not real familiar with the setup inside ut, but if the drippings will fall into a water pan, I'd think you'll be ok as thats how mine work.
I think the 4 briskets is fine. But IMO I think checking up on the grease periodically that has been accumulated from the cook and cleaning it as you see fit. I know it kind of defeats the purpose of having a pellet smoker and just setting it and forgetting but for a big cook like that, I think that's what's needed.
Thanks for your previous video btw on what the rep let you know. I'm close to pulling the trigger on one of these. I want one that has the side controls bc I've heard bad things about the ones with the temp controls on the bottom.
So I between the one you have, the Copperhead 1300 Onyx Edition Walmart sells and the Competition Series Gen 2 Vertical 5 that academy sells. Any thoughts on any of these. If you could go back, would you get the same vertical smoker or would you go with something else
There is a lot to unpack here. So, I'll start with this...I would go with the vertical 6 that I currently have. Two big reasons. First the folding table/controls comes in handy when trying to load and unload food. Second would be the double latch design on the vertical 6 vs the single door closure on the other two verticals. I hear that a single latch can leave the door not fully closed and sealed for air tight temp control.
I Like the ash pot pull out from the front on the vertical 6, and it looks like if you want PID/VST control you would need to go with the vertical 6 as well. I have had issues with the phone app and the wifi connections at times. I forgot to mention that to the Pit Boss rep when I was on the phone with them. It doesn't help that I recently changed wifi routers 3 times.
It will cost more to obtain the vertical 6, but I think of those options that is the route I would go. I appreciate the genuine questions.
this just happened to me on my Laredo 1100...I had a large pork belly on it, and halfway through it just went up. I've cooked plenty of briskets and belly over the years. ngl I'm pretty shaken by it. I was looking to get a vertical to replace it, but now I'm not sure.
Curious, had you vacuumed/removed all the previous pellet ash?
