Pit Boss Modification!! Heat Deflector vs Heat Diffuser 

I agree with you. Thank you for doing this review.

Maybe the size of of diffuser has a lot to do with it? I got a smaller one with just two windows and it’s fine

Can you post a link or give a description of the heat diverter. I would like to purchase 1.

Way too big

That difuser might keep my pizza stone from cracking

This fixed my temperature fluctuations and now I have consistent temps woohooo

I had the same experience with a heat shield mod on my 850p- liked it the old way even with the hotspot.

its better to have the ash in the bottom, than on your food imo

The heat diffuser is for cooking low and slow .

same results

Thanks for the honest info. Question for you. Do you feel you get good smoke flavor from your pellet grill when you cook and smoke with it? I just brought an PB Austin onyx and can't wait to fire it up. But nervous if I'll get enough of that flavor in my food.
