Can anyone provide their experiences achieving higher temperatures in their FEC-100 units. I have tried getting the unit to achieve temperatures in the 375 range and I don't believe my FEC-100 has ever been able to hit that and I've allowed it a reasonable amount of time to get there. My unit is only about 1 year old and is awesome generally, but it struggles to get to even the 280 - 200 degree range. I wonder what the problem is? I plan to do a Prime Rib later today and want to be able to get that higher temperature in the FEC to sear the meat but that won't happen if I can't hit that temperature and I'd hate to have to use a regular oven.
