My husband smoke his 1st pork but ever and it was amazing

Finally gave into my temptation and bought this after my 30 year old Webber kettle had an accident. This unit isn’t great at grilling and smoking but it is very good at both and this makes it absolutely worth the price. I will still keep my current stand alone smoker for certain occasions and brisket for now, but knowing I can smoke ribs, pork buts and other decent sized cuts while being able to sear/char on this thing is great. Cons Leaks, there is a leak around the hole for the sliding cover. I’ve replaced the grommet twice and have just put a pan under it. Uneven heat. This is a given in almost any grill but it was off by as much as 45 degrees constantly. This is no good for long smokes, easily fixed by either making a diffuser or I’m sure they sell one. I made one and it helped lower my variance to about 25 degrees which is manageable. Grates, the grates are about 1/4” short and slam back and forth when you clean them. I cut some small pieces of bar stock and use them as shims to stop this nonsense. Very annoying though. Smoke, the amount of smoke is not very good. I fixed this with a $5 smoke tube. Pros Time, I can easily be cooking by the time my chimney is ready to dump into my kettle. Prep time is just as fast, literally just dump the pellets into the hopper. Indirect cooking, there is no need to move coals around and limiting cooking space, just close the cover and avoid the small area directly above the fire pot. Searing/charring, just open the cover above the fire pot and there is direct flame. Treager could learn something here, most grillers want direct flame at times because it adds flavor. Cleaning, it’s a little longer process than a charcoal grill but actually less work. I use a painters multi tool, some paper towels and a vacuum. Cost, pellets burn more efficiently and on average cost less than briquettes or lump. On my old grill I could average about 4 dinners from a 20lb bag, I easily get 8 out of a bag of pellets for half the price and 1/10 the amount of ash to clean up. Flavor, using a smoke tube for actual smoking is a must for me. Most pellets seem to give off a good amount of flavor and the ability to put hickory in the box and add a shot of another flavor through the smoke tube makes for some great cooking. Ease of use, basically just start it up and when the smoke clears set your desired temp and go. The 25 degrees selection is fine for most people but the 50 at higher temps might bother perfectionists. Always leave the lid open when starting it up to avoid any possible explosions. My only regret is that I didn’t buy a bigger one.

Great smoker for a first time user. I got the recommendation from a buddy of mine who has his own smoker. After much debate i decided to gonwith this one. I couldn't be happier. It is very easy to use. All you do is load the pellets, set the temperature and let it do all the work. It came with some pellets as part of the promo which was a nice add on. You do need to assemble the grill yourself. It is not difficult but takes some and definitely 2 people for some of the larger parts. All in all it took me about 90 minutes to fully assemble. It has a temperature gauge for the smoker and 2 inouts for additional temperature gauges for the meat. It only comes with one probe though. You will need to buy a aecond if you want to use both. It wasn't a big deal for me as I already have meater and can view the meat temperature on my phone. Vwry happy with the purchase. Food comes out great

This is my first pellet grill/smoker, and i could not be happier! If you're looking for one that can replace a standard LP grill, this is the one. This grill will heat to 500 degrees and has a lever that opens to allow direct heat to a small area, both of which allow you to sear your steaks, burgers, etc. This model has more cooking area than you might think (because of the round shape), but is not a huge grill. If if you need one for a very large family or BBQ parties, you might want to look at a larger one. This model also has electronic temperature settings in 25 degree increments, two temperature probe inputs (although only one probe is included for some odd reason), but does not have Bluetooth connectivity for remote monitoring from your phone/tablet which is available on more expensive models. That's not a big issue for me since i was looking to keep the price lower for my first pellet grill purchase. Now that I know that I love it, I'll be more likely to splurge on upgraded features.

I purchased this based off the price and size of the cooking space, it fails at neither. Has tons of features youd find on a $700 Traeger, on the smallest cooking option. This was the perfect purchase.

I was anti pellet grill, man I have been missing out, it’s like having a oven but with wood bbq taste. The temp is easy to set and cooking, smoking all is super easy. You can’t burn food on this bad boy u less u completely forget about food for a extended time. Just get it you won’t regret it.

I’ve already used it twice and the results were much better than I expected. I’m very glad I chose this smoker. Perfect size and great value.

Easy to assemble. Works great. Temps run true. Great smoker!

I was skeptical of all the reviews i have seen before my purchase, but this has been absolutely awesome. It does low and slow perfect and it has the ability to sear a nice juicy steak.

Easy to put together. Looks great. Nice features. Good cooking surface, works perfectly and all for a fair price . Very happy with this smoker

Works perfectly. If you are unsure about using a pellet smoker, read the manual first and it has anything you need to know. Worth the price!

I love the flavor of smoked food. With the ability to smoke or grille, it's an easy choice. Pellets come in different smoke flavors as well & has proven to be more economical than propane.

We love our pitboss! Dont know why we waited so long to get it. Love that it comes with the probe monitor. it has everything we need

Love this smoker/grill. Heats up very quickly and very good build quality.
