How to fix Pit Boss Smokers temperature that is unstable?
If your Pit Boss Smoker is not achieving or maintaining a stable temperature, there are several potential causes. First, check for sufficient airflow through the burn pot by inspecting for ash build-up or obstructions, ensuring the fan is working properly, and confirming no blockages in the auger tube. Once these steps are complete, start the smoker, set the temperature to SMOKE, and wait 10 minutes to ensure the flame is bright and vibrant. Another cause might be insufficient fuel, poor fuel quality, or an obstruction in the feed system. Check the hopper fuel level and remove any pellets if the quality is poor. Lastly, inspect the temperature probe, clean it if dirty, and contact Customer Service if damaged.
