Traeger Pellet Temperature dramatically dropping
I recently got my first traeger pellet grill. I have grilled four times on it in the last week. I am grilling drumsticks and noticed the temperature is now dropping dramatically mid grill, which hasn’t happened the first four times. I am adjusting the dial for the temperature more now, which I feel like might be it.
I am trying to grill it at 350-400, so I was trying to reach around 375, so I set the dial to High and then at 365 I lowered it to 375, and it dropped 60+ degrees so far and is now at 304, now starting to go back up.
I also noticed that midcook with the lid closed it reached 375 earlier before dropping down to 335 before going back up. It isn’t super windy so I’m confused. I haven’t cleaned the fire pot yet because I have only had about 6 hours on it.
Could my grill be messed up, or was it likely the changing of the dial causing it?
It also takes like twice as long to grill anything, tenderloins said should take 15-30 minutes to reach 165 internal temp, but it took an hour.
