- Pit Boss Pro 600 Pellet Grill / Smoker my Pros and Cons of this grill.
After one use here is my pros and cons of this pit boss pro 600
#ralphstrucking #pitboss #pitbosspro600
I did my first cook on the pellet grill yesterday and I am blown away with the results. I did some baby back ribs and followed the recipe that was in the book that came with the Pit Boss. I used Jack Daniels rub and Hickory pellets. The ribs were fantastic!!!!
Initial startup and reaching set temperature of 225F was under 20 minutes. Temperature was set at 225F and varied only plus or minus 5 degrees during the cook. Following the recipe I had to increase the temp twice during the cook and each time it reach the new higher temp quickly. The Pit Boss performed flawlessly without any hiccups.
I too had problems with the pellets not sliding down the sides once the bin got less than 1/2 full. As a result I used a paint stirring stick to nudge the pellets over the drop area. Due to the pellet feeding problem I too removed the guard at the top on the pellet hopper just as you had done.
Thanks for the great video.
Works good without grill. Easy to make sure no hang ups
It looks like a great grill and some great food going to be cooked.
Can't wait to see the chicken and corn.
They was good but phone died near end.
@@ralphstrucking oh no lol
Never see. One like that Ralph looks really good mate. I do like barbecue food. That craftsman vac is a really good vac I know people who have them.👍Great review Ralph
Craftsman do make great products before they sold out. Not had any since then. And I love some great bbq
Good review Ralph
Thank you hope it was though
So about the grill on top of the hopper, instead of removing it I took out the two screws on the front and side but left the back two. I use that as a hinge point.
Cool
How many inches wide is the cooking surface? Want to know if I can fit a brisket in this thing.
Thank you for the in-depth review, I bought one last night and I’m looking forward to using it. One question I have is that I do not understand why you want to remove the safety guard from hopper, you mentioned that removing it allows you to stick your hand into the hopper. However, the purpose Of the safety guard is to prevent you from doing just that. Would it not work to put an object that would fit through the guard into the pellets to move them around instead?
Cause the pellets at times stick to walls and not slide down it’s hard to get to slide down with the guard.
Chicken corn sounds good about now lol nice review on the product
It was good video in couple days
Are the pellets self-feeding are you got to do it by hand every hour or so
You look like you live in the same NC neighborhood as I do with all the clay. Love my pitboss too
I live in Statesville nc

@@donaldconley2720 oh I worked at freightliner check in trucks when I got hurt and was on worker comp from driving 2003
Yes the one thing I wished they would of kept from this smokers bigger brothers is the easy pellet clean out
Always wanted one but never realized you have to vacuum this grill to clean it.
The bigger ones has a clean out
I think this was helpful for me to watch this - never having used a pellet grill. My two mainstays are Ribs and Carne Asada, I'm now kinda afraid to go with this size grill. I only cook for a family of 3, but still, I think a rack of ribs or 2 or a couple of slabs of carne asada might be a little cramped on this grill. Looks nice for what it is though
Cooking ribs tomorrow on it. First of the year
@@ralphstrucking I'd be interested to know how a full rack of ribs or 2 fit on it
@@TheCyborgMC doing a cook this afternoon 2 full racks
@@ralphstrucking Nice! I may have to rethink this then...
*Maybe aim for the Pit Boss 850 Pro series. It’s the next size up from this one. Although, if you’re looking to do asada remember on these, you’re looking at the center being the hottest point, so you’ll need a decent preheating time to get those grates hot.*
I’m new to the pellet game, but I’ve been reading up. My side smoker had been a great companion. Now that I have the 850, I’m looking for the best information.
Just picked this up at Lowes for $139. Cover $12! Crazy deal
That’s a great deal
What state you live I I just got one yesterday for $174 and I thought I got a deal..I'm in pa
@@coreyfierst7986 I got it for $174 yesterday. I'm pumped about that deal
Same here. Lowes $139. Burned it in last night.
Yeah I did too for 139.00 at Lowes
Heading back to get another for Dad Christmas.....
How long will the 12 pound hopper last on a smoke? I worried I will need to constantly refill it on long smokes. Thanks!
It all depends on temp you have it set. Higher the temp faster it goes.
Once the pellet wood dust starts to build up after a couple cooks you wont have that feed problem. Remedy it just by adding more pellets or use an object to shuffle the pellets. I would very much disregard removing the block cause its basically a open ended meat grinder at that point... so be careful pushing pellets down if you do so.
True
I’ve seen some people remove that hopper guard.
Makes it easier push down the pellets
Scooped up the last display at Lowe’s for $178
Older video but what kind of burn time or run time does a full hopper give you?
12 hours easy
Picked one up today at lowes for $399 at 20% off credit card promo. $320 out the door. A steal for those who got it for much less.
Nice
You got screwed
@GeneralPicturesTV eha not uncommon everything in todays prices. I really wanted one so there it is.
I just bought one and found the temperature fluctuates a lot from what I had it set. Is that normal? I also have to get a shop vac lol
If you open door temp drops.
Except for the larger expensive ones you still need to vac. Some do have a removable burn box
Yes
Looking at buying one. It doesn’t have a smoke stack will that make a big difference of not having one verses going up to the 850 to get a smoke stack
Neighbor has one with smoke stack but I never looked to his closely.
You can use a flat magnet flap to adjust the flow out I saw it on another channel. Purchase at anyone that makes signs
First
That location for cleaning out the ash is kind of a deal breaker… how quickly does that fill up ?
That was after a 12 hour cook so not too bad but happens. With bigger unit they have trap door
How many hours burn do you get out of a full hopper?
Depends on temp set. Lower temps 6-8 hours easy.
I hate that hopper grate also and wish it had a end shelf
Why I took that grate out.
Is this Pellet Grill South feeding pellets or do you got to use your hand every so often
Only time I feed is when I first start the grill or need more fire.
Thanks for the feedback
@@kennypettersson8723 smoke comes out of the back of lid has openings with one with stack can adjust I believe.
They're showing $350 for normal price at Lowes right now.. probably because it's late in the year. Also, they're selling that cover for $27.00 right now.
Nice. Cover is great fits
How many racks of ribs fit on the grill?
I had 2 full racks no issues. Did video
Hate building these
Not a down call if you can fix it. Aka. Take that grill or whatever off the pallet shit.
I just got this for $139 at lowes
Great price
