Hey Fellow Pelletheads:
I need some help diagnoising something.
I started smoking at lunchtime today a chicken. Came home at 4:30 from work and then I noticed my grill just bellowing thick white smoke like it was smoldering big time. I tried to turn it off. It would not power down and threw an error. Then I unplugged it and opened it up until it subsided. Temp set 225 when the event was happening temp was around 165 or so. The PID said error . I think the code was 1. Once I unplugged it and let it reset it was still smoking the thick smoke. I then turned it back on and about a minute later I heard a big poof like a serious ignition .. Then it cleared up and came back to temp.
Known variables ...
I cleaned the entire grill two cooks ago.
I am using Kingsford premium oak,cherry and hickory pellets.
I have never seen this before
There are ample pellets in the hopper.
What say you guys?
