I get the people saying "oh I don't want all the electronic stuff" go back maybe 7-8 years ago in my own posts and ideas and I was singing the same tune. But I went to the "Dahk Side" got not just 1 but 2 pellet grills AND an electric car!. I'm LOVIN the electronics and the tech and found it...

Great find there!

Oddly enough I would not bother with them if they were next door. Those WSMs don't light a fire for me

It's really meant for powder coated surfaces and the like. Might do wonders for my Big Z. Though something that shines that big thing right up is I clean it down really well usually with ammonia and then spray it down with non-stick cooking spray and buff it in. Works great

Well it's good to know some of the gray matter is still intact :D Because I seem to recall actually putting the 3 levels to use depending on some things I was cooking

Yep one thing that I think has really upped my rib game is using higher temps (225-250) when I'm doing them. Obviously spares will cook a bit longer than baby backs but both seem to benefit from slightly higher temps and shorter times rather than long drawn out cooks under 200. I also don't...

Reaching deep into my stressed and old brain cells. IIRC with the waterfall grates on some models you could do 3 positions not just 2. I could swear my BMs had 3 position grates

Yes back then they were all the rage

Looks like a really great grill right off

Definitely don't want to skimp there or the bottom will be touched :D

Lots of good answers there. Also a burner is not clean unless every port on it is fully cleaned of any scale/corrosion. Another thing to do is if you have some form of an air compressor (even a little hobby type one will work), blow them out especially after you've really cleaned all the ports...

No I don't. I may place a FB Marketplace ad and dump them at a good price. Because I've been fighting these issues thinking it was my grill's fault. Life's too short. At first too I thought it was because some of them were in 5 gal buckets sealed up on my deck, but I even used freshly opened...

I've never seen them. Being BP Shops are nowhere near me, I'd need to constantly mail order. Also apparently they're made by the same company as Smokehouse (Lumberjack). I'm unsure if the parent company has differing quality levels or what. But, given all the issues of late Smokehouse branded...

Here is a link to their current lineup of grills/brands. Note the name Charmglow was sold off many years ago https://mhpgrills.com/products/grills/
