[QUOTE="rotor_powerd, post: 15245500, member: 76391"] I learned that I need to start cleaning it out every time. I have a Pellet Pro PID controller in mine (Awesome investment if you don't have one, keeps temps within a 3* swing and is dead nuts accurate), and it tends to build up a ton of ash in the firepit very quickly due to the way that it works. After 2-3 uses without cleaning the firepit I'll get burn-back through the auger on shutdown, which is always a pain. I tried pizza once.... I couldn't find my pizza peel and tried to get them on there by hand, the dough wound up sticking to everything and it was a disaster. The pizzas came out looking like shit but they were delicious. The new Traeger Pro lineup for 2016 looks badass, they have a new controller which they claim keeps temps within 15* of the setpoint. That's the biggest complaint I have about mine, the factory controller was awful. I always had huge temp swings and it would way overshoot in the summer, no matter what P setting I used. The PID controller has fixed all of that and now it's truly set it and forget it. [/QUOTE]
