Quoted from Spyderturbo007:Anyone ever have a pellet grill catch on fire? I was 15h into a brisket smoke, walked outside and found the grill temperature at 405 degrees. I thought, what the hell is wrong with this thing, turned it down, opened the lid and it went up like a brush fire.
The inside of the grill was on fire, the butcher paper was on fire, there were flames coming out the grease tube and the grease bucket was on fire....which just happens to sit right next to the propane tank.
I had to empty a fire extinguisher on the damn thing. The brisket was wrapped and seems fine. Might try it later.
Anyway, has that happened to anyone? I'm guessing the pellet feed went bananas and it got so hot that the grease caught. But that's weird since it was just cleaned and the grease tray was working.
I have a Napoleon 665 pro built in modell.
If I dont clean the drip tray, it catches fire so often i end up clean the tray every time.
Well, i have a very good encasement, so i just remove the Meat and let it burn out.
Btw you can use baking soda to put the fire out.
