After three years with a Traeger, I got the RT700 on Thursday. First cook this afternoon (Friday) - 4-pound tomahawk ribeye. After reading through this forum, I first put on the hi-temp felt seal on all four sides of the lid. No smoke at all at any point of lid meeting grill. However, noticed some smoke coming out from the lid emblem and then noticed some more smoke that looks like it is coming from between the hopper and back of the grill (not from inside the hopper, thank goodness). Is it coming from the bolts that hold on the hopper (high up on back of grill wall)? Is this normal? Do you live with it? Have a work-around?
