I purchased a Pit Boss 1600 Competition at Menards a month ago. It comes with a controller that does 5 degree increments from 180-500. There is also a smoke and a super smoke setting (I believe) I haven't really played around with it much because the weather hasn't been super great just yet. But I did cook some ribs and chicken thighs a couple of weeks ago for my first cook on it.
That’s awesome Jason, I’ve since upgraded my PID and I too have better control over the temperature. I think you will continue to enjoy your grill as time goes on.
Nice upgrade on your controller. The only good amount of smoke I ever see out of mine is at startup. I've tried lower temperature and still don't get much smoke. Guess that's why they sell smokers?
Great Job Drew. I contacted Pit Boss to see if I could get the upgraded controller for my PB1100PSC2. For whatever reason Pit Boss has decided not to upgrade the controller for this model. Hey, Pit Boss if your watching Please upgrade these units.
Hey Drew I'm watching your videos I have the austin xl looking to up grade I noticed that you didn't do a full hopper burn I was just wondering why didn't you do that

Thanks. I get pretty good smoke. Consistently. Have you checked the seal around your lid?
Thx Drew ,, looks easy enough you removed my hesitations of upgrading ...
It was a breeze. You got it Kevin.

Thanks for watching Peter. If I’m being honest, I’m not sure what a full hopper burn is. Could you help me out?
Want to sell your old one?
If I could find it, I would. I’ll look for it, but I’m not sure I kept it.
