Scramble time- Pit Boss died at 6 am firing up for my Brisket smoke-POS
So into the Bradley which had already been loaded with my Manitoba Farmer Sausage for a Cold Smoke session with Oak Dust.

Just got the Pit Boss semi functional again at 8am and the brisket transferred over, but I don't trust it anymore.

Initially at 6am the Ignitor lit, Auger turned and it smouldered fine and could hear the roar of a successful light. But as soon as I select a temperature setting it shut down with a Err message. No troubleshooting topic that covers this one that I can find.

Pulled the pellets to remove the hopper to get at my wiring and pulled my temp sensor-cleaned it all and put back together.
Now-It is running 75 degrees off my setpoint.
But it is running-For Now



Getting less reliable than the Bradley which is saying a lot.
