I have had this device for a little over two weeks now. Performance is exactly as expected.
You never really know when you are using equipment for the first time in a comp. These results (Flame Boss 500) speak for themselves.
I've been using the Flame Boss 500 for almost a year. The overall build of the fan, head unit and probes are second to none in the industry. Pair that high quality product with an epic customer service team and the math equals Flame Boss.
Consistency in temperature from cook to cook is crucial to my success on the BBQ circuit. That’s why I rely on Flame Boss controllers to help me tame my flame.
Take your ceramic charcoal grill to the next level! The Flame Boss 500 is super simple to set up to get your smoke rolling. This is the only way that I control my fire for cooking Brisket, Ribs and Pork Butts. With the Flame Boss, I simply set the temps and enjoy my day biking with my boys or whatever. Control your Flame, Enjoy your Life!
We LOVE the Flame Boss 500! It's a small, compact unit and we really enjoy seeing all the information displayed on the large screen. We trust it for our most valuable cookouts and it's definitely one of the best automatic pit controllers you'll find! AAA+
It will ensure you have a perfect cook without having to stand next to your grill ALL DAY.
The Flame Bosses worked perfect as always, even more so since we had a contest close to our home and brought out the big toys this time with our Stump clone. The Flame Boss keeps this ~700 pound monstrosity within a single degree deviation from the set temp, what a luxury.
The manufacturer describes the product as “cruise control for your smoker,” and I can’t think of a better way to describe it.
Not only do the Flame Boss FB500s help us produce Championship bbq, we also use them in our catering business. Being able to set our temps and walk away knowing our pits will run exactly where we want them and allowing us to focus on everything else really does make things easier and more productive.
Awesome product! It has turned my Big Green Egg from a slightly finicky smoker to a hassle free oven!! Set the Flame Boss 400 and forget it!! It’s that simple. Plus Flame Boss has great technical support and great customer service! Buy one you won’t regret it! My son loves the one I got him as well.
We rode our FB500’s to Reserve Grand in DeSoto, KS this weekend. When I woke up at 3:30am Saturday morning it had gotten so cold out that my FB’s had a covering of frost over them, fired em and they just rocked all day. Love them things!
The customer service and Flame Boss controller is exemplary. They believe in going above and beyond to support their products. I would recommend it to all my friends.
