I went ahead and bypassed all three switches (grill lid, firebox, & fuel cell lid) by disconnecting the terminals from the switch & reconnecting then to each other. Now I don't worry about having to replace them if they go out.

had my first cook on this over the weekend, did a tomahawk steak that came out great

probably going to have to invest in a better meat thermometer because the one that came with the grill sucks

If I’m not worried about time, I don’t have to wrap right ?

It’s about a 15lber I think if I put it on around 12-1 tonight I should be fine for tomorrow evening

I have a 1050. I put a big aluminum pan on the bottom rack with about an inch of water in it. Brisket goes on second shelf over the pan obviously.

In the hopper I put a charcoal layer about 2 briquets high then 3 or 4 chunks of post oak. Repeat that all the way to the top. I get somewhere around 7 hours cook time out of a full hopper but around hour 5 I just pour more charcoal in.

You don't have to wrap if you don't want to. I do though. When the bark is nice and dark (internal is usually anywhere from 170-185) I use butcher paper and wrap. I'm a 275 degree fan.

Good luck.
