FAQs

How do I clean the cooking grates?

Use a grill brush to clean the grates after each use when the grill is still warm. For tougher residue, you can soak the grates in soapy water and then scrub.

What type of wood pellets should I use?

Use 100% all-natural hardwood pellets. Different wood types (e.g., hickory, mesquite, apple) will provide different flavors.

How do I control the temperature?

Use the dial-in digital control board to set the desired temperature. The grill will automatically maintain the temperature.

How often should I clean the grease tray?

Clean the grease tray after every few uses, or when it becomes about half full, to prevent grease fires.

What is the warranty?

Warranty information is available in the product documentation. Typically, Pit Boss provides a warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.

Can I use the grill in the rain?

While the grill can handle some exposure, it's best to protect it from the elements. Use a grill cover when not in use.

How do I sear with the grill?

Use the slide-plate flame broiler to create direct heat for searing. Set the temperature to high and sear food directly over the flame.

Troubleshooting

Grill won't turn on

Check the power connection and ensure the outlet is working. Verify that the power switch is in the 'on' position.

Temperature is not accurate

Ensure the grill is level. Clean the temperature sensor and make sure it is not obstructed. Recalibrate the digital control board if necessary.

Poor smoke flavor

Use high-quality wood pellets and ensure the hopper is full. Check for any air leaks that might be affecting the smoke circulation.

Uneven cooking

Ensure the grill is level. Rotate food periodically for even cooking. Check for any hot spots.

Pellets are not feeding

Check the pellet auger for blockages. Make sure the pellets are not damp or of poor quality.
