Hey folks. I have a master forge propane smoker. I went out today to fire it up for some ribs and I'm not getting any gas.
I checked the obvious things hose, clogged burner, swapped tanks etc. anyone have any suggestions? I'm almost thinking that it's the burner control maybe it's not opening properly. Any help is much appreciated!
 
Try this in this exact order.

turn off gas at smoker

turn off gas at bottle

disconnect hose from bottle

 wait 1 min.

reconnect hose to bottle

turn on gas at bottle

turn on gas at smoker

try to light.

The new bottles have a safety valve inside that shuts down to prevent leaks and sometimes it needs to be reset.
 
had this happen to my gosm. if you take the nozzle out of the end at the tank there is a little screen filter in there. mine was rusted not allowing gas thru.
