#PIT BOSS HEAT DEFLECTOR PRO#

The stock flame broiler and flame broiler slider acts as the PB Pro Series 1100 heat diffuser because of its size and density, now when You add the SD HD heat diffuser, your grill will much better temp control and the Hot Spot at the center will be much more manageable. Is your SD HD the wood burning heat diffuser or the non wood burning diffuser? I would reinstall the stock Flame Broiler Main Plate and Flame Broiler Slider and not use the SmokeDaddy Drip Pan for now. So I know folks have used the Smoke Daddy heat diffuser with the pit boss - how did you do it? Did you modify it? did you change your drip tray? did you move your temp probe for the computer? I tried using the heat diffuser with the stock drip tray, i tried just the new drip tray, all of them were inconsistent results. While part of me feels like they put this in the wrong place anyway, I don't know how motivated I am to try and move it. The temp stayed even across the grill, but the internal probe for the computer wasn't getting accurate readings being almost 70 degrees off.

I tried cranking it up to pre-heat and thats when things went south. I moved them around with my grate level Weber iGrill probes to get the most even temp and closest to internal computer temp sensor. I tried them out and at first they seemed OK. I also bought the Smoke Daddy Inc after market drip pan. I bought the Smoke Daddy Inc after market 10Ga Heat Diffuser. Maybe if you're smoking something small it would work, but I can't get a 8Lb Pork Butt underneath that rack and a brisket is pretty snug - at least the ones I'm cooking - there is little I can do about this.Ģ) The center placement of the pellet pot makes the temps in the middle a lot hotter than the left and right - this is something I could fix, or so I thought. Well, I got the Pitboss 1100 and while I love it there are two things that could have been betterġ) The barrel size makes the top rack basically useless.
