How to Use a Pellet Smoker...Best Tips and Tricks! #pelletsmoker #howto

First! Thanks for the tips!

I have rhe 1150 pro series. Love the thing, its a beast.

Brunswick to go along with/pair up with my offset...still using the old-school GS pellet combo!

1 tip i give. is allow at least 1 hour for the pellet grill to settle in.

Thanks for all the great videos. My pellet smoking experience has grown considerably due to your tips. Thanks for keeping it real and sharing some of the bloopers because even experienced chefs make mistakes.

I got a green mountain Jim
Bowie pellet smoker, and I’m still trying to figure out how to get the smoke flavor into the meat. The flavor has been underwhelming each time I’ve done it. Only had the smoker about a month and got it used

I actually got a Copperhead Onyx Vertical for my birthday

Great video, bud. Always a great Saturday morning watch.

<<<<< taking notes... ...

Awesome tips Andrew! Cheers brother 🍻

Love it

Where do you get these tomahawk steaks!?! A guess a butcher...... But that meat looks amazing

I want an honest thought. You have a pellet grill and a pellet cabinet. Which one gives you the best smoke flavor all things equal. Meat, seasoning and pellets all the on both.

im fixing to get the pro series 1600, however im new to the smoke game and stumbled upon your channel which is great by the way. my question is, is there a particular brand of pellet you found works best? and if so what is that brand

ReqTec RT-1250 with the cold smoke box!!

I can still never figure out the point of the gloves during prep. Watching you cross contaminate everything. Please explain.

I'm an old school, offset wood smoker kinda guy. But to keep up with the times and the yungins😜, I bought the K.C. Combo. It's definitely a learning curve. But very easy and convenient. BTW, the steak looked perfect!

First off pellet grills are not smokers. Although the do produce a toxic smoke, you do NOT get that "smoke" flavor from compressed sawdust. These pellets burn up into ash causing that one ring on your meat, which is actually toxic, as this produces N02...Why should you not want a Smoke Ring on your food? It is a reaction of NO2 coming in contact with myoglobin, a protein found in meat. There is no flavor, and there is no benefit of seeing this ring of red in meat other than the evidence that you and your family are ingesting high levels of Nitrogen Dioxide. If you want to smoke meat buy a smoker, not something that runs pellets ( compressed sawdust ).

Great video, Andrew. We have been thinking about a pellet smoker, it's good to have this video available if we take the plunge lol that steak was massive 🥩🥩and it looked so good! 🔥

I have a question. I have the pitboss 850 pro. Love it and have used it do cook so many things that have turned out great. I never checked the internal smoker temp in the middle of the smoker before with temp gauge. I tried it this weekend and noticed that. Even though the smoker says let’s say 250 it is not according to my therma pro. It was anywhere from 10-40 degrees different as I move to the right away from the pellet hopper. I am sure this is completely normal as my fire is in the center. So if you have a cook where you want it at 250 do you just keep the meat to the left or right side? Or don’t rotated the meat around so the one in the middle doesn’t cook hotter and quicker? I just subscribed after watching so many videos and appreciate any feedback

hello again slowly following along, i was wondering about the vertical vs horizontal smoker, is it worthwhile for the average person to have both or will the horizontal do all the things the vertical will?

lol or you can just run hickory. Can’t miss.

Just bought a Pit Boss Pro Series 1150. Looking forward to start smoking following your tips!

Super helpful! Could you share what knife you used at the end to cut into the steak?

Right on man I just got a z grills ZPG-7002e and I appreciate all the tips I’m ready to smoke some stuff

Is it normal to get burn outs in smoke mode. My temp will spike over 100 degrees of where my temp is set and then just stop feeding and I have to restart smoker

Just got a pot boss 850 competition under the rarest of conditions, work my wife permission! Can wait to try some of these recipes

This is an excellent video. I just purchased a Weber Searwood pellet grill.

Just bought the Pit Boss Charleston Onyx (smoker/griddle combo) Can't wait to get it fired up this weekend!!!!

Funnily enough it's my wife who wanted the grill and is making me figure out how to use it lol

Teager pro 22 🎉

I’m thinking of getting either a Z grill Cruiser 200B or a 450B pellet smoker. I don’t have a lot of space so the dimensions of these pellet grills will work for me. You’re a good teacher. Nice helpful video.

Girl griller here. Just got a smoker for the holidays. Watching to learn how to start. Got the vertical smoker

I got to ask what is the internal temperature for meat when it’s done and what temp should the pellet smoker or may smoker need to be at for putting certain meat in

There is nothing Texas style that involves a pellet smoker.
