I prefer 275F for pork anything but like all things BBQ related YMMV depending on your setup and your personal preferences. Obviously there's some best practices, but you can use the same cut of meat at the same temp for the same duration on 2 different cookers and the results will vary.
Just tinker around with yours to find what works best to your liking and enjoy the process. |

Meat, fire, salt and pepper = Burp
Does it matter what it’s cooked on? All kidding aside....I love learning from Malcom Reed “How to BBQ right” website. |

Don’t send this shit through your vacuum. And more importantly don’t ****ing breathe it when you clean the filter. Water is your friend, folks. Bucket, duct tape, extra hose, win. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ins...famp_page=true |

I thought the whole idea of pellets was for lazy ****s, now water traps for vacuums?
I guess there's a reason it's called a "Homer" bucket |

Look, dude. I have never not once vacuumed out my pellet grill. But if you have to ever vacuum ashes you should use a water trap. I use a water trap because I have a waste oil furnace in the shop. But if you want to bring out your shop vac and suck that shit out of the furnace, be my ****ing guest. And I have no clue if the models these guys are buying have the shut down procedure that burns out the firebox. If they don't they probably need vacuum out the firebox when they change the foil. But do you man, condescend away. Just understand that you are being a raging ****ing twat. |

Love my Grilla, but it won't put out near the heavy smoke as a traditional offset. I like being able to start something the night before and not have to worry about the temp. Just like coffee, you get diminishing returns on cost and effort after a certain point.
Quality of cut=temp control>prep>type of wood and so on... I will say that one of the biggest things to get used to for me is that different smokers have different air flow. I feel like a pellet grill gives a better flavor at lower temperatures. If i try to smoke at a higher temp the the smoke doesn't penetrate as easily. I've adjusted a lot of my cooks accordingly. Ie. pork shoulder on an offset I would be a slightly higher temp, but I knock it down a bit for the pellet. My opinion ymmv. |

I think we all know the answer to that.

Bottom line, if you're going to vacuum ashes, of any kind, use a water trap. And cooper is a jackass. |
