    Thank you Sir, for making the brisket video. After watching your videos I went out and bought me a gravity 980 as well. I'm loving it. Thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos.

    Thanks Tom I have been thinking about getting one of these to round bridge the gap between the pellet and charcoal. Thanks to you and some of the other early adopters that have made this decision easier for me.

    I am new to this style of grilling, but I already have a brisket, and I plan to give this a try in the next week or so. I appreciate how you covered all the essentials, while still keeping the video relatively short. I'll definitely hang on to this and watch it again before I set out. On another note, it is a widespread misconception that the humidity has to be at or very near 100% in order for rain to fall. This is not at all true. I'll definitely be checking out your Channel.

  • @MtnMac719
    @MtnMac719 3 года назад +1

    Sooo I have a few questions on this bad boy. How is the charcoal consumption on shorter cooks. I’m really looking at replacing my gas grill and dedicated smoker with either this or possibly one of the new pit boss units. Since I’ll be replacing the gas grill as well I think I’m really leaning towards this. Fuel usage is what’s kind of hindering me from the pellet grill and that I do a lot of steak, burgers, dogs n sausage, along with chicken thighs n breasts. I do cook for groups as well.

    • @TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ
      @TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ  3 года назад

      Thanks for Watching! Charcoal consumption is dependent on length of cook, temp cooking at, outside temp, if your looking to compare a gas grill, it’s not on and off. The cool down time to completely snuff out the charcoal can take up to 2 hours

  • @raphaelterrell5527
    @raphaelterrell5527 3 года назад +1

    Hey Tom I really appreciate all your videos on the 980 and I ended up picking one up. My question is are you getting a different actual temp than the temp shown on the readout? I’m been trying to figure out what’s going on🤦🏽‍♂️

    • @TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ
      @TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ  3 года назад

      Thanks for watching! Yes mine seems to read about 20 degrees higher than actual at lower temps. Above 300 it evens out to about 5-10 degrees

  • @coreym3675
    @coreym3675 3 года назад +1

    Hey Tom, after this first run of a brisket on the 980, would you still use the same pre-wrap cooking temp of 200 next time or do you think you’d bump it up to 225 degrees and reduce the pre-wrap cook time to 4 hours or so? Thanks!

    That smoke ring is insane!!! Looks great, Tom! I picked up my Char-Griller Gravity 980 from Lowe’s last night and I’ll be doing the initial burn-in and first cook later this week. Thinking I’ll break it in with a brisket cook for the long holiday weekend.
    Quick question…Have you noticed any areas on your grill that have developed any rust? I have a covered patio, but we had a light drizzle last night with some wind. The grill got wet and today I found a few spots along the edges of the underside of the shelf and back of the hopper lid where a little rust already started to form. Any suggestions on how to treat that? I bought the official grill cover and will be keeping it covered when not in use going forward.
    Thanks!

    I’m close to pulling the trigger and buying this bad boy as a Father’s Day present to me from my wife, lol.
    I called Char Griller customer service just now. They said that you need to keep the unit 12 FEET from any wall or ceiling per the manual. Does anyone know more about this???
    I originally called them about being able to remove the legs and place into an outdoor kitchen. I was told doing so voids the warranty. With the Traeger on sale now at Costco you can according to the salesman and one it has a cool warming drawer.
    Btw- I also learned that you can crank it up to 700 degrees F.
    Here I thought I found exactly what I was looking for. Now because of the distance from any structure I need to keep thinking about the best balanced choice.

    Question for you bud. How accurate is your PID vs a grate probe? My grill is roughly 100 degrees off from my Thermworks Smoke. I've tried a few different probes, as well as another temperature unit and they all read the same at 100 degrees off from the PID. The sad thing is that it is 100 degrees off and then over time creeps up to within 15 degrees which makes a smoke absolutely dreadful.
    Great grill but to me, I have to send that back.

    • @TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ
      @TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ  3 года назад

      Wow 100 degrees! I don’t have that,,, I’d take it back too if it was 100 degrees off. What I’ve noticed on mine is at low and slow 200-255 that it off about 10 -15 degrees lower than set which for me is ok. It’s low and slow. Once I get closer to 300 and up it evens out to about plus or minus 5-10 degrees. Did you contact customer service? Thanks for Watching!
