Decided to cook some ribeye's tonight for Valentines day. The current temp outside is 20 below zero with the wind. I used my ThermoFelt welding blanket draped over the grill in a single layer to get the temp up. I had no problem at all getting to 545 and it was still climbing when I put the...
Sorry for the late reply. I have the 680 and there are no vents to cut out for. I just tuck it inside the handles and around the vent stack. I made the mistake a few times when cooking at high heat to cover the handles with the blanket and not using gloves to grab the lid to open it. Handles are...
At 210 internal it should be very tender and shred very easy and the bone should pull right out. When you checked the temp were you too close to the bone possibly? Are you sure your thermometer is accurate?
Agree with Infantryman, Easy 6 could squeeze 8 if arranged differently and all of same size. This is on my RT-680, but the space is pretty much the same.
I am going to say that no they will not loose their flavor. Do I have scientific proof, well no, But... if they have been properly stored, are still in good shape that they will be just fine. If and its a big if there is any loss of flavor it will be minimal, again, in my opinion. I have some...
With the Rec Tec holding 40# in the older 680's like I have and the new 700's having the same pellets in the hopper for awhile is normal. Unless, if you have a pellet vac and or choose to change types, flavors or brands or not fill your hopper up all the way. I am pretty much set on what I like...
Have been watching posts of folks using their sear plates and it made me pull mine that I have not used in 5 years off the shelf. I got these when I got the 680 over 6 years ago and used them maybe 3 times with ok results. Now reading the posts of people using them and seeing the results I...
On the smoke daddy inc website the Heavy D is on sale through Feb 29 for $89.99. I ordered one today. I have had no issues with my 680 diffuser warping in 6 years but this seems like a cool idea if it works to use once in awhile for extra smoke. I will not use it as a permanent replacement for...
Purchased a Tillman ThermoFelt 6x6 welding blanket a few years back for my 680. It works very well. I double it up and just drape it over. As stated earlier do not cover the horns they get hot, trust me! You can cut out for the horns if you want or just run it between them. I have no problem...
