Made some today 2/1/25 and it came out amazing. Great appetizer Jeff 👍🏽

Glad you like it! Let me know how they turn out!

That's great. So easy and tasty too!

You may want to see if a local welder could repair the body by welding in new steel. Or maybe your excuse to replace (upgrade) if it has given you many years of service!

Had it since 2011 so I think I will go with the upgrade idea😂🤣

@travelinghamburger6093 You have my permission! :-)

@@bbqplusmine was an older Traeger, not sure of the model but I think it was prior to the Chinese ones…looking at the Traeger pro 780. Any experience with those?

I do not. My experience with Traegers are the older Pre-China versions. I upgraded the controller in a 125 and use it often. I really like the Green Mountain grills and I have a Yoder that I picked up for a steal of a price.

That is odd. The maun fan should run for approx 10 minutes after shutdown to burn out any remaining pellets. Are you sure your fan and auger wires are not crossed?

@bbqplus yea they are not crossed I have red to red and yellow to yellow the main fan does run for about 10 minutes

@marksimpson3160 sounds like there might be an issue with the new board. Hopefully you can get a warranty exchange. Good luck!

Yeah, those were really tasty! Put a toothpick in each and brought them over at halftime... they were gone before Q3 started!

I will look for it! Thanks for the tip :-)

Thanks! I was able to but the Yoder @ 95% off... guy was moving out of state the next day and posted not for CHEAP! That is the only way it fit into my budget.

Yeah, that was a fun experiment and it turned out just like i had hoped! Probably best to use stainless food grade blades... just in case you were last cutting asbestos with your power tools!

I have bought, cleaned and upgraded 3 Louisiana Grills and they all have performed great. Maybe I am just lucky, but I have nothing but good to say about them. I will keep my fingers crossed!

@ bullshit

Thanks, glad you are enjoying my channel.

I’m in the process of restoring a big text 34 inch where is the best place to purchase parts?

@EugeneSanchez-gd9mq I buy parts from Amazon. Is this the round (controller in the end) or square hopper (controller on front) model? If it is really old, you may need to cut the controller mounting hole bigger. If you do, make sure you take equal amounts from each side so mounting screws line up. If this is for your use, consider upgrading the controller to a PID controller as it will hold temps better. Good luck!

@ I’m restoring the big Tex 34 with the badge on the hood . Will the pid fit with out mods ???

I have a very good recipe for carne asada nobody had posted ??? If you like I can send it to your email or something ??

Thanks, they were a great addition to our New Years Eve party! Turned out just as I had hoped!

I need to order up a set of bone saw blades for my sawzall. You can see i struggled a bit cutting them! I want to try some of these with a hot honey glaze!

Good tip! Shopping now on Amazon. Just need the band saw from the meat market!

Love me some Randy's. Missing the big island!

I kept the flap closed, so no bark formed as it was not a dry area. I think the bone does help impart flavor and richness... but on the boneless there is more surface area to season with the rub. I think I need to do a head to head test - bone in vs boneless and see if one is better than the other. Enjoy the spicy Chex mix!

Glad you are enjoying the offset experience! I have been keeping an eye out for a used O C Brazos for a good price. My OK Joe is a medium size, so big swings with tending the fire. If I had the space, I like how whole hog cooking guys have a burn barrel that they feed splits into and then shovel out embers into the pit. That's more dedication than i am ready for! I have a cabinet style Masterbuilt that has a charcoal/wood basket in the bottom and a fan that blows to keep the temp up to set point. That is almost a hybrid of offset & pellet... I have to spend more time using that smoker! Thanks for subscribing! I hope my videos inspire and educate you!

Yes, I neglected to mention the sweetness that came through from the pineapple and apple juice. I think sweetness is a great pairing with Pork. I hope to make some significant steps in finishing the smokehouse in the next couple weeks. My electrician is coming on Wednesday... so I can say goodbye to extention cords!

Thanks for the wishes! Hope you had a great Christmas and New Year! Cooked up some great Mini Baby Back ribs for an appetizer yesterday!

@kimkelley7019 thanks for watching!

Thanks, and Merry Christmas to you too Lone Bull BBQ!

I had an older GMG that neither the up or down buttons worked! I would suggest pulling the controller and give a good douse of electronic contact cleaner. Hopefully, that will get it working. Fingers crossed for you!

@bbqplus appreciate it will give it a shot

@eruu1203 do not paint inside of a grill. I never use any chemicals other than oven cleaner inside a grill. Beat to use a wire brush or wire wheel on a drill or grinder to get rid of the rust. Then, vacuum out and spray inside with PAM or a cooking oil. Fire it up and bake on the oil. Maybe do it one more time and you are ready to go! Thanks for watching!

​@@bbqplusThanks for the response, I really appreciate it, it's really helpful😊

Thanks for your encouragement! We had a terrific time with family over the holidays, hope you did as well.

Glad it was helpful! Now put your warm boots on and get cooking! 😀

@johnbauman4005 Hey John! Is this in your 075? Personally I have never seen a slow blow fuse in a pellet grill. They seem to be standard with a 5A 250V fuse. Was yours a 4A?

@bbqplus Yes, it's my 075. I decided to try and widen the hole for a new controller as you suggested, with a new more powerful Dremel tool. While doing that I shorted out the old controller accidentally because, like an idiot, I forgot to unplug the Traeger. I can't read the writing on the tiny metal endcaps, but the plastic fuse holder had 4A 240 V molded in to it. The Traeger site says 3-5 A 240V. When I went to Amazon to buy fuses they offered instant blow and slow blow and I didn't know which to buy. I googled and found slow blow are used when fast starts with big draws are necessary, e.g. with controllers, pumps, compressors, etc. Fast (instant) blow fuses are used to protect electronic circuits. Well, the device IS a controller and the fuse IS on a PCB, so.... Next I tried Traeger support and the guy had no idea what I was talking about and neither did the person(s) he was talking to while I was waiting. So here I am once again at the feet of the guru. I'll order the instant blow fuses. I'm curious if I fried some part of the board or just the fuse. Thanks again!

I would start out with at least 100 grit. Less than that will make lines and gouges in the metal. Those lines will show in your paint.

I think adding the tallow @ wrapping really added the juice. I don't cook for competitions, just to make tasty food for my friends/family and to share my results with others.

Glad you got it fixed. So many people get rid of these as they don't know about simple fuse fixes! Thanks for watching my channel and Merry Christmas!

Where was it on the daniel boone? I only found 2 good fuses in my power supply inside the 12v connectors... nothing in line like this video shows but mine suddenly died....

It was fabulous! Thanks for watching!

@deliodem Links fixed! Happy shopping and Merry Christmas :-)

I hope Santa is good to you!

Merry Christmas to you! Happy New Year, and may your smokers always hold steady temps!

Maybe Randy's sauces have pineapple in them??? Quelling your hunger is a good excuse to head to the islands!

Now Drip-Eze makes an XL model... it is on my list to Santa. Have a great week!

I can hook you up!

@@seanharracksingh279 glad you found the info useful!

Glad you liked the Chex Mix! It's definitely a good snack for watching movies :-) I am moving to releasing new videos on Saturdays. Better timing for RUclips to promote the content.

@ That’s great. Enjoy your videos 👍🏽

I think it really elevates the flavor!

@mamamiaWAAAHHH sounds like you plan travel around being there @ lunch time. Very wise!

Unfortunately you can't. The D2 is very proprietary. sorry :-(

Any idea why my D2 controller says fan disconnected? I put a new traeger fan on it and still have the same error. My grill is only a year and a half old.

That's a tough one. I had a GMG with the same issue. Would die in startup sequence. I ended up replacing the controller :-(

@ericander2108 glad it was successful!

Wishing you luck getting that auger unstuck!

No problem 👍

@kelvinlewis2089 That is exactly what you should do! Never use any chemicals inside the cook chamber. You can also use a wire wheel on a drill or a grinder to make the rust removal easier. Before 1st cook, spray with vegetable oil... then wipe out with a towel to get rid of any particles. Spray again as a protectant.

It is a great choice for a first cook!

It was a fun Thanksgiving! Glad you liked the pork belly.

Hey John! Glad this helped you out. Couple of things to know when you upgrade these "classics" with the Smoke-Medium-High controller. I have restored a bunch of these. 1. New controllers are just a bit wider than the old. You need to widen out the opening just a bit. I use a grinder with a cutoff wheel. You need to shave about 1/16th inch off each side. If you take it all off one side, the mounting screws will be off. 2. New controllers use an RTD probe (thermocouple) to feed current interior temp info to the device. This tells the controller when to start the feed of pellets to hit the temp you set. You will have to drill to mount the RTD on the left side lip in the cook chamber and drill to run the wires out to connect with the controller. This video may help a bit. I show the new RTD shortly after the 6 minute time. Good Luck and hit me with any other questions! ruclips.net/video/DARhFKLY0Hc/видео.htmlsi=eO3EHA0Ff9kMMnhI

@bbqplus Wow! Thanks again. I was going to re-order the upgraded controller figuring I had flunked an IQ test and inserting it from behind would solve the issue. I don't own an angle grinder, with or without a cut off wheel, and I don't think my Dremel is up to the task. 🤔🤔🤔 Perhaps a good excuse to get one, but then I'm not sure I could cut a precise straight line - never took shop or worked with metal. I did compare the 2 controllers and I *thought* the face plates were the same size, but maybe I was wrong. I'll definitely check out your other videos, but not sure I'm up to make the Traeger my first metal work project. Would not want to botch it. I'll let you know if I do dig into it. Meanwhile just had our Thanksgiving turkey prepared on the Traeger. Kind regards, John

Thanks 👍 and have a great Thanksgiving!

So much better than the ash from burnt paper in the bottom of the chimney!

I think they were @ one time as they have the cool Santa Maria grill.. maybe just focusing more on the music.
