I've not had flaking paint on mine but after a couple of years use I had rust spots all over. It's been kept under the GMG cover at all times and not used in the rain, ABBQ seemed to think it was due to condensation getting under the cover.

They sent me a can of stove paint and it now look like new ...

Yes, my lid has always leaked. I got some some Nomex from here: https://wishboxusa.co.uk/products/high-temp-felt-grill-gasket-bge?utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=googlepla&gclid=CO_Kw7S8g8sCFSsq0wodz94H5Q

I put it on the other week but haven't tested yet so can't say if it makes much difference. The lid ...

I agree with GingerBen, get a Maverick to monitor grill temps. My DB always runs 20 - 30c hotter than what is displayed on the controller. I only thought to check this after my first couple of cooks were much quicker than they should have been. I assumed the controller on the GMG would be bang on ...

I've had the DB for nearly two years now and wish I'd done some more research on alternatives before pulling the trigger. If given the choice now, I'd spent more and try to get a MAK Grills 2 Star or Yoder YS480 shipped here.

I've experienced a few of the common problems, uneven temps from left to ...

Have just seen on HotDealsUK that B&M are selling Sweet Baby Ray's for 10p a bottle nationwide!

Took Friday off to put up the marquee, collect the meat & prepare rubs, sauces etc.

Dry brined the butts during day then chucked them on the pellet grill around 11:30 pm. The GMG ticks away happily overnight on a full load of pellets but still found myself waking up and checking temps on the ...

and it was a big one!

Really pleased with how it went and ...

Didn't know the Wi-Fi controllers were available yet in the UK, I'm jealous! Where did you get it from and how much was it?

Have you given it a test cook yet?

Are any other GMG owners having temp problems with their pit?

I got Daniel Boone in May and after a few cooks that turned out dry, tested the pit temp with my Maverick and found it was running 20 oC higher than what was on the display. Two controllers and a heat probe swap later I'm still having ...
