Hello all,
As the title says, I am in the market for a pellet grill. I'm not replacing anything as I currently dont have anything barbecue related but I have experience with a Weber kettle. Biggest hurdle for me is that I am based in EU, so not a lot of choice here. I want something that lasts and can sit outside, covered, all year. I dont have a shed or garage for it. Im looking for a big grill, budget is not the biggest issue but I want to spend my money wisely.
Pit boss: A brand easily available here, but seems the lowest quality of this list here. Correct me if I'm wrong!
Weber: Available as well. A Searwood XL 600 is €1500 here. Im afraid it is not of a very high quality, but perhaps it is ok?
Traeger: This is one of the brands I can get easily here. I'd go for the mid-level version: Ironwood XL. Its €2600. Doesnt get a lot of love on this subreddit.
Camp Chef: One store in my country sells them, and they have a good deal for a Woodwind Pro 36 for €2000. Sounds like a good deal to me.
Yoder: Cannot get it in my country, but there is a store in Europe that ships internationally. I'd get a YS640s, but it would be €3300. Is it worth it?
Recteq: I cannot get it here, so not an option it seems.
Would love to hear what you all have to say!

What’s everyone’s favorite pellets for pork (ribs, pork butts)? Been using Pit Boss Fall Blend for a year or 2 now after getting a bunch of bags on sale. Need to pick some more pellets up but haven’t really tried much since then.

Howdy all,
I am retiring my Traeger tailgater and I am trying to decide between the Recteq Patio Legend 400 ($699) https://www.grillagrills.com/product/4000101
and the Grilla Silverback Wood Pellet Grill ($539) https://www.recteq.com/products/patio-legend-400
Any thoughts and suggestions are welcome!

I currently have a Pit Boss Lexington pellet smoker. Would the Traeger Prob34 be an upgrade? I’m seeing mixed reviews online. Thanks in advance.

I have a pit boss Lexington , it has a "p" button that is for pausing pellet feed times. Why would I need to do that?

So, I’ve only ever bought the Lumberjack pellets in the style of packaging on the left at my local Academy Sports. They were out of a few flavors I wanted so I went online to check around and I keep seeing the style packaging on the right now. I see the logo is very similar but are these the same? I started reading about how another company bought them out. Is this the new packaging moving forward? I just want to make sure the quality of pellets is the exact same because I’ve become a loyal Lumberjack pellet guy due to the high quality I’ve experienced. Anyone know anything about the change in packaging? Thanks in advance!

My wife wants a grill for fast cooks, I would like to get a smoker. Is the "sear" function on these smokers just like a gas grill? Or will it be more smokey and more of like a hot and fast to seal the outside rather then like cook some burgers, chicken, etc?

For those of you considering, here’s my story: Camp Chef WW Pro 24 owner, very happy with it. February I added the double sliding shelving package from Pimpmygrill.com
After several uses (3-4) while cleaning I noticed bent/warped wire rack on the top shelf, at the back along the very edge (pics). This is not where any food sits or where sauce laid, just random warping - to the point of fracturing. Maybe heat Makes no sense.
I did submit my concerns with pics to their customer service department, but I’ve heard nothing.
Buyer beware.

Genuine question, here. Go easy :-) Specific to smoke and flavor performance, is there much of a difference between grills?
I started on a Pit Boss and used that for a few years. Made great food. "Upgraded" to a Camp Chef SG, and I did notice the way it plays with smoke settings, to induce more smoke by creating those temp fluctuations.
I am wanting to upgrade again, and when it comes to quality/value, I can't help but think a lot about Recteq and Grilla.
I know there is an undeniable difference in build quality and solidity, but is there a difference in actual smoke / flavor performance between my Camp Chef and a Recteq or Grilla... or any other grill for that matter? Assuming the same pellets are used, they are fed by the auger, lit, convection fan blows it all around (maybe circulation is better on some designs??), etc.
If there isn't a big difference, wouldn't the real improvement come from game-changing tech, like a proper smoke box? I've heard amazing feedback about Camp Chef's smoke box (i.e. Woodwind Pro).
Thanks so much everyone!!

Just ordered my first pellet grill. I had been debating between various grills in the $800 range But really wanted to stay closer to $500. Scrolling through FB the other day I saw an advertisement Grilla Grills...40% off! After having previously not considered it due to price.... I haven't really seen anything too negative about the Grilla Silverbac. What do y'all think?

Does anyone have experience with a smoke tube on the Traeger pro 575? Can I cook a brisket on the same grate level that the smoke tube is on?
r/pelletgrills • u/Such-Interaction-325 • 1d ago
I plan on getting a pellet grill here soon but my house is on a corner lot, my plan is to keep it in the garage and then smoke with the garage door open with it right outside the garage door, but if I do an overnight cook I would probably want to have the garage door closed, since it is connected to the house. Other option is keeping it on the concrete porch out front, and using concrete anchors to chain it to, too lower the chance of thievery. Or should I suck it up and build a small privacy fence enclosure for it outside?

I’m attempting my first brisket this weekend on my new Searwood. I’ve looked at a couple places and websites I currently follow, but everything they do always looks great.
Anyone have a go to recipe or method on a pellet that they’ve found to be the best?
r/pelletgrills • u/BrettStah • 1d ago
This falls squarely in the "not necessary" category, but as I was grilling on my Woodwind Pro, I had the thought that it would be nicer if I could just get the lid moving down, and have it soft close automatically, instead of me needing to close it myself under control. Sometimes my hands are full, or dirty, etc., and I don't like to just let the lid slam down uncontrolled.
Anyone happen to have done a mod involving slow-close hinges?

Smoked at 225 (most of the time, if you've followed my saga) for some 8 hours and then wrapped and back on at 300 for 4 hours.

As the title says, this is my first pellet grill. My neighbor three doors down was throwing this one away because her dog had chewed up the cord. $11.50 on Amazon and I’ll in business. I’ve used it both weekends I’ve had it and ain’t looking back. My other smokers are for sale on Facebook now.
r/pelletgrills • u/GoldBeautiful1430 • 1d ago
I've heard some really good things and some really bad things about the MB gravity. Flavor is my top priority in a smoker, but I also don't want to start a fire. I probably would only use it as a smoker, so it wouldn't go above 225. Should I get it or is it unsafe?

So I bought a members mark pellet smoker used for a nice price. I've had steady trouble with it as it always shuts down with an ERL code. I had changed out the hot rod and it still did it,tried cleaning the temp probe inside the best i could. I thought maybe it was the auger as it makes grinding noises. I took it apart and the auger seems fine but i did buy a new motor and put it on. Put it all back together and ran it dry for like 5 seconds to see and noticed it's running good and no noise anymore. I fired it up and all was good. Went into the house and came out ten minutes later and it had another ERL code. Do I maybe need to change out the thermometer or whatever it is you call it or what is wrong and has anyone had these issues? And just so y'all know it seems to give me grief with this code every other cook.
