This… I (like Jon) have an OG Summit 450 to directly compare parts There is a lot of info in my Vieluxe 44 rehab thread that compares parts

I picked up a stainless pot from ikea that replaced the original aluminum grease catcher - slightly smaller but still secure Your thermometer looks like it may still be accurate - mine points to 4 o’clock when off My roach clip looks exactly like yours…

I think there is a simpler way for supports rather than the tabs that hold the saddles for the bars How about a C-channel with one leg at grate level - the other at flavorizer level and add spacers to keep the bars in place? I would probably use rivets rather than nuts and bolts - would be...

The engraved labels on your Vieluxe are super cool - much better and more durable than mine Post in thread 'Vieluxe 44 Restoration' https://tvwbb.com/threads/vieluxe-44-restoration.98335/post-1154822 What do the grates for the side burners look like? On mine, the supports for the...

The grates alone are worth almost as much as Jon paid for the whole setup lol…

At least one of the burners looks salvageable. May be able to repair others as well. If you need to use summit burners, you may want to weld “closed” the first few orifices so that it doesn’t damage anything on your front panel - they are shorter, but ports are in different locations. Dave...

12x18 Same grates as the Weber 9930 - used on OG Genesis and Summits

Yaaasss!!! Be especially careful with the burners since they are the special SR18 stainless Dave Santana can hook you up with most everything else that corroded

The Reddit link is about Kirkland and PitBoss

This is among many google links pointing to Kirkland made by PB Not sure Traeger pellets are any better though… they use flavoring oils https://www.statesmanjournal.com/story/news/local/2024/12/16/traeger-pellet-grills-settle-lawsuit-wood-pellets/76952073007/

Got it with the shrinkage… Will start late tonight @225f with fat cap down for both meats on middle rack without foil pans (cuz I want to check out grease management system) In the morning (assuming both in stall) I will wrap pork butt in foil pan and wrap brisket in butcher paper. Maybe...

Simple food safety standard to remember is 4-4-4 No more than 4 hours total spent between 40f and 140f

The main grate area is 18x24 - same as OG genesis and Summits Unfortunately, the top grate is only about 11x24 (two 5x24 grates) - there is not enough vertical clearance to use top and middle positions. Here is a pic of both meats on middle racks. Will this work even if meat is dangling over...

Going to try a pork butt and full brisket overnight… have some questions regarding loading I don’t think I can fit them on the middle and top rack positions - so will have to place one on main grate and other on top grate Brisket over pork butt? Meat on main grate or on wire rack over foil...

Jon Have you considered a round grill pan with a lid so you can keep smoke off the wife’s grub? Would require different timing and method but at least you could use your preferred fuel source…

Here is the finished product (along with leftover ribs and rotisserie chicken) Heat seemed fairly even across the main and even upper grates. Exception was along the edges of the grease tray where the heat shoots up. I noticed the fan is intermittent up until 300f then stays on continuously...

Party Wingz on sale at Costco for $2/lb Loaded Memphis with Kirkland pellets and spread them out (6lbs worth) on main grate but thought it was a little crowded so put some on upper rack Running @375f for 45min or so I noticed the grease tray has a gap about 1in from all sides. On the E-W end...

Damage assessment: I must confess that on my gasser, I never ever scrape the flavorizer bars… out of sight out of mind, but on this Memphis it’s right there in plain view Do I need to be concerned about buildup on the deflector of a pellet grill? How often does the fly ash need to be...

Even cheaper in store if your local Costco carries them - $100 less

Results: Color looks great but… Overcooked - I got small racks and should have checked more frequently and pulled earlier. Could also be different heat profile than the WSK Too sweet - I usually take racks off WSK one by one as they finish and move them over to Vieluxe for glazing and...
