OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS With today’s lifestyle of striving to eat healthy and nutritious foods, one factor to consider is the importance of reducing fat intake. One of the best ways to cut down on fat in your diet is to use a low fat method of cooking, such as grilling. As a pellet grill uses natural wood pellets, the savory wood flavor is cooked into the meats, reducing the need for high sugar content sauces.
• HIGH TEMPERATURE (205-315°C / 401-599°F) This range is best used to sear and grill at a high heat. Use in tandem with the flame broiler (slide plate) for indirect or direct flame cooking. With the flame broiler open, direct flame is used to create those “blue” steaks, as well as flamekissed vegetables, garlic toast or s’mores! When the flame broiler is closed, the air circulates around the barrel, resulting in convection heat.

IMPORTANT: When selecting a Smoke setting after a temperature dial preset (such as preheating at high heat), the auger will continuously turn and feed pellets for four minutes. This will momentarily raise the temperature, but temperature will decrease and stabilize once the "P" setting cycle begins (approximately five to ten minutes). 2.
4. Turn the Temperature Control Dial to Smoke. This will activate the start-up cycle. The auger feed system will begin to turn, the igniter will begin to glow and the fan will supply air to the fire pot. The grill will produce smoke while the startup cycle is taking place. The pellets will have ignited once the smoke has cleared. To confirm the start-up cycle has begun properly, listen for a torchy roar, and notice some heat being produced. 5. Preheat your grill. Close the lid.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE Any Pit Boss unit will give you many years of flavorful service with minimum cleaning. An important step is allowing the grill and cooking grids to self-clean by running the grill at a high temperature for 5 to 10 minutes after each use. Follow these cleaning and maintenance tips to service your grill: 1. HOPPER ASSEMBLY • The hopper includes a clean-out feature to allow for ease of cleaning and change out of pellet fuel flavors.
Hopper Electric Components Once A Year Dust Out Interior, Wipe Fan Blades with Soapy Water Air Intake Vent Every 5-6 Grill Sessions Dust, Scrub Pad & Soapy Water Probes Every 2-3 Grill Sessions Scrub Pad & Soapy Water USING WOOD PELLET FUEL They appear no thicker than the eraser on the end of a pencil. People who see them for the first time think they look like rabbit food; however, there is nothing small about the heat or flavor in barbecue wood pellet fuel.
TIP: For best results, allow time for meats to rest after cooking. This allows the natural juices to migrate back into the meat fiber, giving a much juicer, flavorful cut. Resting times can be as little as 3 minutes and up to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the protein.
TIPS & TECHNIQUES Follow these helpful tips and techniques, passed on from Pit Boss owners, our staff, and customers just like you, to become more familiar with your grill: 1. FOOD SAFETY • Keep everything in the kitchen and cooking area clean. Use different platters and utensils for the cooked meat than the ones you used to prepare or transport the raw meat out to the grill. This will prevent cross contamination of bacteria. Each marinade or basting sauce should have its own utensil.
TROUBLESHOOTING Proper cleaning, maintenance and the use of clean, dry, quality fuel will prevent common operational problems. When your Pit Boss grill is operating poorly, or on a less frequent basis, the following troubleshooting tips may be helpful. For FAQ, please visit www.pitboss-grills.com and click SUPPORT.
