I just ordered a PG 1000. Can anyone give me some pointers on what to expect as far as set up, and initial use? I have both the SM045 and 066. I have been helping new owners of these smokers by letting them know some of the things to watch for. Now I am just hoping someone can do that for me with the new purchase.
I just received my PG1000 last week. I’m having issues reaching the desired cook temp. I’m using cook shack hickory pellets. LHT 10 HHT set at various ranges from 40 to 150. Set temp at 375 with hht at 100 digital gauge on grill gets to about 350 then backs down then back up but never gets to set temp of 375. With hht set to 150 Temp gets to about 365 then backs down. I’m having the same issue with “lower temp set at 275 and hht of 40. I’ve tried adjusting the flue cap from all the way down...
Did Cookshack ever make the SM008 with a private label. I’m speaking of back around 1999/2000. With the Private label of Smokintex. Hope there might be an old timer around or someone from Cookshack who can answer this. Thanks
I have been a CS Forum member since 2012. The forum and many members helped me with making a decision to go electric and then to purchase the Amerique. The format was simple and friendly. Lots of great back and forth with the other members. I have tried to like the new format. I have tried REAL hard and while I am getting used to it, I dislike it a lot. I belong to many forums, whether guns or BBQ or woodworking, and I have to say the current CS forum is the most difficult. Actually, all...
Anyone have a good resource to buy this? Thanks!
I have a SMO25 that has issues. I plugged it into my front porch exterior socket, which is a 15 amp circuit, and it runs for about 15 seconds and shuts down. The unit is about 10 years old BUT it’s never been used. Can you help? I thought about plugging into a 20 amp circuit but that would require a pretty lengthy extension cord, maybe 25 feet.
Has anyone found fresh salmon yet in places like Costco or Sam's? I saw Copper River Sockeye (my absolute favorite) in Sam's a week ago, but they wanted $25 per lb. Outrageous! I've never paid that much for even fresh King (Chinook) salmon. The past few years (even last year), Costco near me has had fresh sockeye, about 1.5 lb per side, for around $12 per lb, which is pretty good. Last week, they had it, but only about 1 lb per side and not very nice looking, kinda chewed up by the pin-bone...
Hi Everyone I bought for personal use a Cookshack SM160 Smoker and have used it at home probably 20 or so times. Its in great condition with Cold Smoke application. I also own a FEC100 Smoker that is brand new sitting on a pallet. It has never been used and in their shrink wrap. This was purchased for our work office/warehouse, but never opened or used. We were going to cook for employees but that never matured as the company has planned lunches. So I am selling the Cookshack SM160 and the...
SM045 Will not heat up. Controllers reads Pbr.. but the probe temp. works? Any idea what I should do?
Trying to pin down problem with supplying 120v to the auger motor. Hopper switch is working correctly but when I check voltage on the pins to auger on relay board no ac is present. The display shows temperature so I believe that part is working correctly so maybe a relay controlling the ac for the auger is the problem. If I am correct here anyone know which relay it is. Manually putting pellets in the fire pit is a pain when smoking brisket and pork butts for the diner and food trailer.
