First Cook On Pit Boss Sierra Three Burner Griddle

[Panhead John]

I just did a test on my 2 burner, after 10 minutes my hottest spot was 611* [right back side] with most areas in the 525* - 535* range. The lowest reading I got in any one area was near the front of the griddle. 435*. Plenty hot for anything I’ll be doing. Just remember where your hot and cool spots are when cooking.

My thermometer I used is the Maverick LT-04. Important tip here, keep the trigger pulled in for several seconds when testing. I found that if I just give it a quick pull, the temps were lower. After holding it in for 3 or 4 seconds, the temps rise until it reaches the peak temp reading.

Hmmm. I’ll check mine again later today. I’ll be using it to cook again. Maybe it’s getting hotter than I thought.

Lid open, burners full blast, 15 min easily. So is mine too cool or is Sid P too hot?

Maybe some of both? I copied this chart from a YT video, and based on yesterday I’m not sure I can keep any part of mine down at 300°.

Hey guys, on the subject of gas grills/griddles….when done cooking, is it best to turn the tank off first, or the burners? Or does it even matter?

[Steve B]

Panhead John Always turn the tank off first and let the fuel run out of the hose and burners. The flame will go out after 30 seconds or so. Than turn off the burners.
Your welcome. 😁
