I’ve had the smoker for a long time and it’s always performed well. I can’t say where you set the dial is what you get, but you can fiddle with it and get it dialed in. I have,not used it in awhile but broke it out today for some ribs. I set the dial at 225. Within 1/2 hour my temp probe went of at my max set temp of 260. I turned it down to 200. The temp quickly dropped until it was below 200. So I turned it up to just below 225. Again it jumped up over 250.
Is this a dial problem or a thermostat issue? Can they be replaced and is it worth messing with as it’s probably over 15 years old? That said, it’s been indoors kept and is cosmeticly in great shape.
