Thank you. I found it. (factory preset = 30). I appreciate the help.

Hello all—I inadvertently altered the auger setting on my 590. I got into the settings to make an adjustment to the offset temp (my trusted ThermoWorks reading 275 when RT set to 250) and started turning the dial and then realized I was on the auger setting. I don’t know where I started on the...

I've had my 590 for a couple months now, and loving it. However, today I smoked a couple chickens and the greased splattered on the inside of the lid and the grease accumulated and dripped out and down onto the patio--quite a bit of it. Not cool. The lid seems to shut tight, so I was...

Yessir—rested at room temp loosely tented with foil

I think Waterboy’s gotcha covered. Tough/dry = undercooked; crumbly when you try to slice it means it’sovercooked. Yours sounds more the former. And of course once in awhile you just get a tough hunk of beef that just won’t play. I’ll add that you’re more likely to win the moisture battle...

Yep, I matched what RT has on website. Congrats on the new addition!

No reason not to, and plenty of reasons to...the only thing I do different is the reheating. Microwave good and fast but sous vide gets ideal serving temp, and timing for plating is whenever you want it. I sous vide the vacuum-packed pork for about 45-60 min at about 145*. Good stuff.

Kudos! I don't know about you being a noob, but you dove right in and sounds like you got a good result. My guess is you'll evolve your approach as you Q and you'll have an easier cook with an even tastier product. Nice job!

+1 to this ^. I use the cheap ones. They do the job.

Got the Stampede last week. Started out with an overnight butt, approx 9#, med-heavy coat of SPOG and some Plowboys Yardbird. Xtreme Smoke for about 90 minutes, then set to 230* and went to sleep. Happy to wake up with it in the stall approx 165*. Wrapped and cranked it up to 275, finished...

Stampede on order! Looking through the threads here and learning plenty. Can't wait for the 590 to arrive
