Uneven cooking; one side of the grill is significantly hotter than the other.

Safety first: Allow the grill to cool before adjusting internal components.

• Inspect diffuser: Remove and examine the Gourmet Grillson heat diffuser plate. Replace if warped or cracked. Reinstall so it is centered over the firepot.
• Clean firepot holes: Ensure all air holes around the firepot are open and not blocked more on one side than the other.
• Check probe location: Confirm the RTD probe is in the factory position and not too close to one side of the cook chamber.
• Shield from wind: If cooking in strong crosswinds, reposition the grill or use a windbreak to reduce uneven heating.
