I was 10 hours into a pork butt, and noticed smoke pouring out of the pellet bin. I immediately unplugged, opened up the bin to vent. This was 10 minutes ago and smoke is still, although dissipated, coming from the hopper. I pulled my butt out, and it is now in the oven. The water is full, I got a motor malfunction on the PB app...what could possibly have gone wrong??? ** UPDATE...cleaned out all the hardened pellets, I poured water on them before I went to bed, it was still smoking. Pellets are out, panel works, fan works, auger seems clear, but will not turn. Someone told me there may be a plastic gear or sprocket involved with the auger...anybody have experience with that?
