Why Pit Boss Grill will not get hot enough?
If your Pit Boss Grill isn't getting hot enough, check the fuel level. The grill might lose fire quickly if there isn't enough charcoal. The recommended amount of lump charcoal is a maximum of 1.81kg / 4lbs per burn. Add more fuel and leave both vents completely open to increase oxygen flow, which will allow the fire to burn more lump charcoal.

Flare-ups in your Pit Boss Grill can occur due to several reasons. First, the cooking temperature might be too high.

Another cause could be grease build-up on cooking components, so follow the Care and Maintenance instructions. Also, try to burp the grill by lifting the lid slightly to allow air to enter slowly and safely, which can prevent back-draft or flare-ups.
