That's a great looking burger there Bentley!

Making me hungry. 

[Kristin Meredith]

This is not a slap at the pit and maybe it is because it has had no real cooks yet, but there wasn't much of a char or grilled flavor to the meat.  Well cooked though.

[Bentley]

Yes, that is true, but after 20+ Performance Tests, it does need to be seasoned, and I need to know how long to let it warm up.  I do not know this pit yet!    We will see how the steak does this weekend!

That was cooked with the heat deflector pulled away from over top of the firepot?

Also, what kind of sauce did you put on that burger?  Looks like the sriracha mayo I bought a few weeks ago.

[Bentley]

Yes.

Russian Dressing, as close to "special sauce" as I can get!

[yorkdude]

It looked mighty good, cooked perfectly too.

[Bentley]

Nasty day, could not get motivated to test, calzone on right now!

[Bentley]

Good taste, I would go higher heat if I did it again!

[Bar-B-Lew]

I would eat that whole thing

[Bentley]

I have no idea or hypothesis as to why the unit got to 440° a few days ago, and when I go to do the high heat test and have it set on high and let run for twice as long, the highest controller setting I can achieve is 420°.

Sorry, no insight.

[Bentley]

Doing Pellet consumption on controller setting 200°, 300° and 400° right now.  Will post 200° 1st.

[Bentley]

84°f, 2mph wind, sunny, but unit in shade. 200° controller setting, unit took 71 minutes to burn 1lb., or 0.84/lbs per hour.

[Bentley]

85°f, 4mph wind, sunny, but unit in shade. 300° controller setting, unit took 38 minutes to burn 1lb., or 1.57/lbs per hour.

[Bentley]

84°f, 4mph wind, sunny, but unit in shade. 400° controller setting, unit took 25 minutes to burn 1lb., or 2.4/lbs per hour.

[Bentley]

Lets see, old computer accepted Office 2007 so I had Excel.  New computer, no Excel.  I digest.  Cant run Tappecue graph through their system, but can do a Screen Shot off Tappecue.net, so will do that of the 225° test.

Will be the last Data, unless someone has a request.

Will do a little more cooking and that will finish this Performance Test!  Rib-eye tonight!

So if there is something you want to see, please speak up.
