Hey guys,
I just got myself a GMG Daniel Boone.
I have had a Traeger junior elite for about one year. Love it! No complaints. Nothing but great food. My only regret is having bought such a small smoker. Was about to buy the lil tex, but did some research and seems GMG gives me a lot more features, so decided to try it.
Have yet to smoke anything. Hoping to maybe get some tips on using this smoker, any info you guys can give me that might help me use or maintain it.
So far I have a few questions.
Manual says wind shields are optional on my model. So I didnt put them in. Should I just put them in? I live in California, not a very windy area. Not sure if it hurts anything being installed.
Also, on the wifi feature, does anyone shut it down using the fan mode but always leave the switch on?
I thought of this because if I leave the switch on, I can turn on the smoker and get the on cycle running right from my phone. But not sure if it's bad to leave that switch on.
Been playing with wifi feature and so far I'm loving being able to control temperatures from my phone.
Another thing on the wifi, saw a video of a guy changing the wifi from point to point to wifi mode. My app doesnt have this feature. He was on android? Does android have a more advanced app and iOS?
Sorry to throw all this in but I just wanted to get all my questions out in one thread.
Already have learned a lot from this place. Wish I would have joined a long time ago.
