  If your EXPERT GRILL Grill is producing excess or discolored smoke, it could be due to excess grease build-up. Check and clean the interior grilling area, and consider doing a controlled burn off after cooking greasy foods. Also, check if the pellets are wet and replace them with fresh, dry pellets. Finally, make sure there aren't too many pellets in the hopper and remove any excess.

  If the igniter on your EXPERT GRILL Grill isn't working, check for insufficient air flow by removing ash build-up and any obstructions in the fire pot, ensuring it's correctly seated in the firebox. Also, confirm that the igniter rod is heating up (without touching it to avoid burns) and check its placement relative to the fire pot. With the power off, inspect the wire connectors for tightness after removing the hopper's baseboard.

  If your EXPERT GRILL Grill is experiencing frequent flare-ups, it could be due to a cooking temperature that is too high. Lower the temperature, especially when cooking greasy food, keeping it under 350°F. Another cause could be excess grease build-up, so check and clean the interior grilling area regularly, performing a controlled burn off after cooking greasy foods.

  Kimberly CastroAug 30, 2025
  If the temperature on your EXPERT GRILL Grill isn't stable, first ensure the control is set to Cooking mode. Insufficient airflow could be the cause, so check for ash build-up or obstructions in the fire pot, and ensure both the fire pot and firebox are seated properly to prevent air leakage. Also, make sure the fan is working correctly, the air intake isn't blocked, and there are no blockages in the hopper. Finally, check for sufficient standard wood pellets in the hopper, ensure the auger is working, and clean the meat probe.
