I have enjoyed reading all the different advise on using the BS and the different recipes. Thank you. Here is my problem or issue, I have had the BS since April and have had nothing but problems. Frist, the BS came broken (door broken off hinges) dealer sent me a new one. Second BS heating tube broken. Dealer sent me new one. After putting in new heating coil, generator did not work. (sent new one from corporate) Have finally been able to start using it. The issue, I can not get temp. below 250 degrees. When I attempt to adjust the leveler at the bottom, even so slightly it goes off! I have attempted to keep the top vent wide open to reduce the heat to no avail. I beleive in the "low and slow" idea but I can't seem to get there wtih this unit.
I have a pork tendrloin (2.5 lbs) with Hickory in right now that I want to do for 2 hours but as I stated the temp. has gone off twice and had to boost it up,it is now 250 degrees+ with the top vent wide open. Lord knows what results I will get. Any advise? or should I dump it?
