finally, somebody just makes a normal burger instead of a bunch of weird seasoning on it
Good looking burgers. They look super juicy!
Wouldn't expect anything less from a Grilla Grill! Thanks!!!
At the moment I'm using Grilla Grills Competition Blend pellets. Very consistent and no issues with them. Thanks for asking.
What a video! Thanks again for helping me out with this. You are convincing me towards getting one of these, that's for sure. Appreciate you taking the time to put this video together. Looks like this grill is truly versatile. Keep the video's coming, they are good watch and as usual very informative. Thanks Again!
Glad I could do it. Thanks for watching Chris.
Thanks for posting this. I am seriously thinking about purchasing a Grilla Grill. This is helping a lot
great video, straight forward , hope you do more of these.
I just pulled the trigger on a new Silverbac tonight. I really appreciate your videos. They really helped me make my decision. I really appreciate your videos.
Congrats Michael. I'm glad the videos helped, and thanks for watching!
Well, how is the Silverbac, Michael Vance?
Hell Yes on the hat and the video! Thank you for answering the grill question :)
Thanks for watching!
If you have time. Smoke 1st then crank temp up to grill. Before you pull burgers add some bbq sauce let it set then add cheese
Your videos have helped me decide to order a Grilla Grill, i am getting the Chimp. It will be my first pellet grill, i have always used just charcoal and hard wood chunks to grill. Thanks for the insight!!
My mouth was watering the whole time. Just bought me a Jr pellet grill so I'm just starting to learning God Bless for the information
Glad you answered that question. Always wondered if you can grill a burger and chicken on a pellet smoker. Thanks
Your videos are great and have helped me make a decision on Grilla Grill.
I tried grilling on mine a few times but it just doesn't taste good to me. Doesn't have a good crust/char, and the juiciness it gives just doesn't taste good to me - almost seems watery. I ended up going back to my charcoal grill for burger duties.
Question. I’m a long time Grilla Silverback owner, just bought the Stainless Steel front shelf. I noticed yours had your logo on it. Where did you get that done? Cost?
After firing up the grill, how long did it take BEFORE you put the food on the grill?
About 15 - 20 minutes.
@@JusPiddlinBBQ Thank You! That is MY Number ONE question for the viability of replacing my gas grill with the Silverback for EVERYDAY style grilling. But until this thread no one has addressed that.
It’s the oven rolling the heat and smoke in the pellet grill,my traeger cooks delicous juicy tender hamburgers,that’s a very nice pellet grill.
Take some corn on the cob, rub it up with olive oil and up it in there too!
Really enjoyed your live chat today,your a very knowledgeable guy of bbq.i checked out your silverback pellet grill really nice.
I like the way you cook,I agree more juicy on the pellet,but on charcoal it would have charred taste.excellent burgers on pellet.
You're off to a great start on your channel. I just watched the boston butt video. I've been looking at the Silverback long and hard.
Thanks Lee. It's coming along. That butt turned out great! I have to say that, so far, it is exceeding my expectations. Thanks for watching!
Have you tried to cook a full brisket on the silverback? And if you have not, do you plan on doing so anytime soon? Thanks for your time
Thanks for the question. I have not. I really want to do one....the problem is that I can't really find one in my area, and if I do it's a really bad brisket. Most people in South Georgia do pork butts which I love, but not many around here are willing to try one and they don't sell so stores don't offer them. If I can get my hands on one I will certainly film it. Thanks again.
There are other videos on youtube of people doing briskets on the silverbac. It does a fine job!
Thanks!
Thanks for this video, this is exactly what I was wanting to know. Keep up the great videos.
Thanks for watching gcfireemt!
Thanks for the video, once you ignite the pellets how long did it take to reach 450 to 500 Degrees?
Hey Sandy! Looks like the Grilla Grill does a find job as a stand alone grill as well! Great investment buddy!
Thanks for watching Rus! So many things I want to cook and film but not enough time! I'm sure you can relate!
How much meat can fit on the grilla? Will two whole briskets fit?
With the top shelf extension my Silverbac has 877 sq inches. I'm not sure about two briskets.......I guess it depends on how big the briskets are. I just measured the bottom grate, and it measures 20" deep by 26" wide. I hope this helps.
that chicken looks delicious! and very juicy for such a high temp!
Jus' Piddlin, Great video. I'm looking to purchase an alternative grill to my Big Joe Kamado Grill (which I love) and was interested to learn what you and others feel regarding cost for fuel (wood pellets) I know with my lump coal...I get more bang for my buck over propane as well as standard charcoal when using my old Weber Grill ( haven't used for a few years now since purchasing Kamado Big Joe Grill. Anyway, keep those video's going. We all appreciate em'.
Thanks for watching and the encouraging words brother. I really appreciate that! One of my concerns when I bought this smoker was the cost of fuel. A few things to consider, as I can only speak for what I am personally doing. My first comparison is to my gas grill. It was costing me about 20 - 22 dollars to exchange a tank on my gas grill, and especially in the summer it might last about 3 weeks. I look at a bag of pellets as a tank of gas. Comparable price for the brand that I am using, but I think that I do use a little more fuel than I did with gas. The difference is that if I wanted smoke, I had to purchase chips or chunks as well.
The other consideration is brand of fuel. I am using BBQr's Delight pellets. There is not doubt that I could find cheaper pellets, probably about half the cost, but I like sticking with a brand that I can trust. I may experiment with another brand eventually, but right now I'm sticking with this brand. My brother says PitBoss brand and B and B brand pellets are good for the price.
Compared to charcoal/lump, the charcoal/lump is cheaper, but for me, I'm willing to pay a little more for the flavor and quality of the end product that I am getting from the pellet smoker. I know that is a long answer, but I hope this helps answer your question. Thanks again.
Wish we could have seen the inside cook on the burger.
Man the more I watch videos about Gorilla Grills the more I want one!!
Thanks for watching David. The really are a quality smoker.....especially for the money.
Awesome video! I'm guessing you still have the old controller correct in this video and not the PID one? I just wanted to know if you can still get up to 500 degrees with the OG controller. Thanks.
That is correct
@@JusPiddlinBBQ Thanks. I just a Silverbac pro.
A good honest vid .... Well done! :)
Thank you Marshall Man!!
I was thinking about getting one of these Silverbac Grills. Great price. Only drawback it that there is no way to clean out the hopper unless you unscrew the honeycomb and scoop it out, and cleaning the ash out is not very user friendly From what I have seen. Do you know of an easier way to access both of those? I've narrowed my choices down need to get another person's opinion that is not employed by Grilla Grills.
Good point MeatHead! I just removed the honeycomb safety shield from the hopper. 4 screws and it comes right out and I haven't put it back in. I cleaned mine out this passed Saturday to try a different pellet, and I just scooped it out with a bowl. Didn't take any longer than it would any other way. I hope this helps.
I am looking to purchace a Grilla Silverbac thanks for the video. Size wise, could you tell me how many slabs of baby backs do you believe would fit on the Silverbac? I am trying to figure out the grill size. Also, what is your opinion of the Silverbac? do you use the added front Shelf ? is the shelf worth it? lastly, what is your opinion of the All Terrain ? thanks Vince from South Florida
I don't have the Silverbac anymore, but I'll try to answer. I would say at least 6 racks of baby backs on there, maybe more. I'm not sure how it is configured now. I used the front shelf a lot. The all terrain was nice, but the tires would flatten on the bottom side if you leave it setting in one spot very long, and it is tip heavy when you pull it because the hopper is on the opposite end with the weight.
thanks for the reply. I appreciate your input. So, the Silverbac is still top heavy even with the All Terrain?.. thanks
I wouldn't say top heavy as much as "hopper heavy".....in other words when you pull the handle, especially on an uphill slope, the front tires tend to want to come off the ground. Similar to the chimp in that respect.
Ever have any problems with grease fires with any of the grilla grill products?
What is the max temp of the gorilla grill? Just curious if you can get a good sear on a steak.
I'm stuck between this and the Kong. I've never done a smoke before. I want to get into it but I know there main thing we cook will be stakes, chicken, burgers and dogs.
Hey S MoK! Thanks for tuning in! My suggestion to you would be to weigh how much you want to be involved with the fire/heat maintenance during your cook. You can do steaks, chicken, burgers, and dogs on both the Kong and the Silverbac. The difference for me is the ability to focus more on the food with the Silverbac rather than maintaining temp. The Silverbac does that for me. Hope this helps.
Did you look into getting the grill grates for your grill? We we both received silverbacs around the same time. I also got the grates sold by grilla. They do help with the appearance of grill marks quite a bit, but I agree with you that the grill has no problem making some good burgers, dogs, and brats with or without them.
I looked at them but had to get over the hit my wallet took for the grill. I'll probably get them this month. Thanks for watching!!!
Does your grill have any hot spots? I am shopping for a Grilla grill. Thanks. Semper Fi.
Jus' Piddlin BBQ, Thanks for the quick and full response. Looking to cook a large leg of, Lamb, for Easter. Do you have any suggestions for low and slow and a proven recipe recommendation?
Thanks brother!
I have never personally done a leg of lamb, but I would recommend checking out this video: ua-cam.com/video/hCYlDPW07cQ/v-deo.html
Your silverback looks a lot like my traeger texasBQ075,bought it in 2006
Where did you get that chicken flipper tool ?
A friend of mine had this one made for me, but you can find them on the internet. Pig Tail Flipper. Great tool!
love it thanks brother
You answered my question before I got to ask it. I'm considering a Grilla grill. Thanks
At 18 min, were they rare, medium ....?
that was nice thank you just got one
Love your videos! Thanks for the info. God bless.
I'm considering a pellet smoker grill, but my wife is concerned about a smoky taste when it's not wanted. Can you grill marinated chicken or other foods but not get the smoky flavor over powering the flavor of the marinade?
To be honest with you Anthony, I have yet to cook anything that was close to being too smoky so far. Everyones tastes are different, but the smoke flavor for me on this grill is a subtle flavor addition to any seasonings or marinades that you use. Also if you use a mild wood like pecan for example, that will make the smoke flavor mild as well. Thanks for watching and I hope this helps.
Nice video..strongly considering going w the silverbac opposed to the traeger..maybe coulda showed us cutting one burger in half to see the inside but that aside, good work and thanks..
Did you decide between the 2 smokers? I'm considering those 2 also. Wondering if you have any experience to share?
Shawna s yeah..I’m going w the grilla chimp..good for tailgating or the house and plenty of cooking space..
Shawna s my dad brother and two bro in laws all have traegers..they do great but I’m sold on the thicker gauge body and all stainless..I like em thick..haha
just daniel how do you like the Chimp?
Thx for this video 👍
How’s it going brother what kind of pellets you use
One of the bad things about grilling burgers on my Weber charcoal kettle is that you get flare ups. I didn’t notice any on the Grilla. BUT I did notice that there does not appear to be much caramelization either
Same thing happens on a gas grill, especially with brats.
Have you done brats and/or all beef dogs?
I have John. I have a few brat videos on my channel.
Great video! What pellets did you use? I can't seem to get much smoke our of my Silverbac but it looked like you get tons!
Thanks for watching Jeremy! I was using a mix of Mesquite and Cherry BBQR's Delight pellets. One thing to keep in mind is that some of the "smoke" that you see is coming from the juice of the burgers dripping on the hot drip pan. At the same time, I have been able to get good smoke as well, and had a great smoke ring on a boston butt in another video. Thanks again.
Great hat!
Good video! I watched the entire thing and read all the comments. I'm in the same boat looking and saw the GMG comments. This one, Rec-Tec and the CC Windwood all look good. Any issues with yours? I read on Amazon people were having issues with this one.
Intercooler Intercooler I did a one year review of this grill you should check out. A few minor things that were quickly corrected. I love it!
Geezzz over 2 minutes and still haven't started the comparison
Then don't watch
I'm not on your schedule.
How long does it take for the grill to get up to temp for grilling - say 400 degrees?
It will vary a little depending on the pellets you use. Oak, hickory, and mesquite will burn hotter than fruit woods. Usually takes about 15 minutes or so.
Great Videos Brotha!!! Thank you
OK, my only worry is the pellet smoker being able to HOLD temperature. I have a Camp Chef and if I set it for 350 dg it will vary from 30 to 40 dg while cooking. I have yet to see a pellet smoker that will hold a constant tempt. I would not mind a 10 dg plus or minus. How does the Silverbac pellet smoker hold up to maintaining Temperature ?
Hi James. This may be a long answer but I want to be clear on my answer. The first thing to remember is that the controller on any pellet grill is trying to control a wood fire, not a heating element. A fire, unless fueled by regulated natural gas/propane, is going to be difficult to regulate to +/- 10 degrees. If you have an electric oven, even though it has a heating element, it will not hold a +/- 10 degree temp either.....the difference is that it is not displayed on your oven display for you to see. I just had someone ask me a similar question. She said she had her pellet smoker (another brand) set at 250, but it had varied between 318 - 180 back and forth for a 5 hour cook and she was frustrated. But think of it this way....if you add 318 + 180 and divide by 2, it comes out to 249! One degree off from her set temp. That's pretty dang accurate for a 5 hour cook considering she was using a tailgater model. In my opinion, people are WAY too hung up on "holding temp" with these pellet grills instead of average temp. I hope this helps.
Thank you for your reply. When I cook with charcoal on my weber, I can hold temperature, lets say 225, right on the money, and keep it there all day, plus or minus 5 dg. Not a problem. I like pellet smokers but have learned not to buy one unless I can do a test cook or observe one being used in person. The Silverbac was impressive however the video only shows when there is heavy smoke being produced and gives you the impression that it does this during the entire cooking and I feel sure that this is not the case. I might be wrong .Thank you for the education on the temperature variation, it makes sense.
I have been judging and cooking in completion since 1992. I could not tell you how many grills I have owned and cooked on since then. My favorite all time smoker is the "Ole Hickory" Very expensive but it's a gem to cook on. Now I just need to find someone with a Silverbac smoker so I can give it a try before I purchase one. Thanks again for your information
James Taylor
Olive Branch Ms
I completely understand James. I too own a weber and can dial in temps with really precise accuracy, but there is not flame to regulate. Billowing smoke is not present throughout the entire cook, and it wasn't my intent to give that impression. Keep in mind that some of the smoke you see in the middle of the video is from the burger grease on the drip pan. There is thin, faint, blue smoke present throughout the cook, and medium to heavy at times, which is due to the temp swing. This is a reason that I feel pellet grills shouldn't "hold" at a specific temp. If it does, then there is less smoke flavor. If it swings, this gives the grill the opportunity to add additional pellets (smoke), then calm back down. Over an 8 hour cook, I get intermittent billows of smoke over the longevity of the cook due to the temp swing.
Ok, my camp chef does the same thing. Thanks again for all your help and advice. I'm always learning. Happy cooking.............JT
My Silverbac holds constant at 5* above setpoint, when it adds pellets it will rise 5* for a few minutes but 75% of the time it’s right on the money.
What did you use to flip the chicken breasts?
It's a pigtail flipper. You can find them on Amazon.
I have one of those too that I bought from a vendor near Chicago at a flea market. He makes them in Texas and calls them his "Hookers" I have used them for about 10 years for flipping meat on a grill! They are great!
what is the fuel when grilling? Still the pellets?
Yes, pellets
@@JusPiddlinBBQ can you also use charcoal as sometimes i don't want the smoke flavor
Do you find you have hot spots when grilling like this???
Todd Schmidt the only real hot spots are in the very back and very front due to the drip pan not covering that area. Only a 1” gap.
Those are some good lookin hamburgers ready for the grill,making me hungry ,nice and wide and thick.with a cold beer delicous.
Definitely juicier burgers than on a gas grill. Not tough. When cooked on my pellet grill
And you can do them either hot and fast or low and slow to get some smoke. Very versatile.
Can you do steak on the Grilla Silverbac ?
I do steaks all the time.
Super! Pozdrawiam!
Thank you!!
I'm trying to decide which pellet grill to purchase and it's tough to decide; Grilla grills, Camp Chef Woodwind, Green Mountain or Red Tec. I've looked for HOURS on UA-cam reviews and I wish I could find a comparison review with all 4 but all anyone compares to is Traeger:( If I could afford it, I would buy all 4 and do it myself!) But I digress...
CC rocks when it comes to clean out and the sear box, but, I'm new to this pellet thing so does that gas sear box make it "unpure?" GMG and Rec Tec seem like high quality grills, great logic board monitoring except kudos to GMG with the WiFi and Rec Tec wins with looks. Grilla grills? I haven't even heard of them until tonight.
I'm wanting to get one ASAP but I need to get as much info as possible since this whole pellet thing is new to me and I can't grill a steak to save my life.
Thank you and I look forward to your response!
Q
Right from the start I will say DO NOT BUY A GMG!!! IMO they are flimsy and built like a tin can. i know that they have wifi, but to me it is not worth the extra price, it is something else to tear up, and the grill is just not made well. I did alot of research before I purchased my pellet smoker, and this is one of the first ones I looked at. Traeger is flimsy to me as well, my brother sells them.......and they are better than GMG. Rec Tec IMO is overpriced, doesn't fit my wallet, and the company just seems arrogant IMO.......and I'm just not a fan of the bull horns. Looks cartoonish to me. I couldn't be happier with my purchase...the build quality, customer service, and price point are all unmatched in my opinion. Some like wifi. I think it is a waste, and why grill if you aren't going to enjoy the smell of the smoke and sit in your living room? It's just not my style. As far as the pellet dump, that would be convenient, but it takes me about 2 min. to scoop out pellets and put new ones in. No big deal to me. So that is my rundown of what I think.....not that I'm an expert, but it is some things to think about. I hope this helps.
No question do not buy camp chef, treagar, pit boss, none of the popular ones.
How is the ash clean out on the Grilla?
@@JeffMohler1 why not buy Traeger? I'm currently comparing Grilla and Traeger, so any info would be appreciated!
@@shawnas6726 they are built cheaply, have an old controller, isnt double walled, nothing stainless steel.
Grilla has the option to have a stainless burn pot ect. They also have a pid/more smoke controller which is the only one on the market.
How long does it take to get to temp? From 0-425 degrees?
Hey Brad. Thanks for the question. 15 mins max.....but I rarely cook at that temp. I'm usually between 275 - 350, but I would say about 15 mins depending on ambient temps and the flavor of pellets used. Some will burn hotter than others. I hope this helps.
Thanks for the quick response! I'm debating between the GMG pellet grill or Grilla Grill.
DON'T DO IT BRAD!!! Lol. I have shopped around for pellet grills before I bought mine, and the GMG was probably the worst built out of all of them. The day my Silverbac was delivered, all I could think was "Please don't let this be like the flimsy GMG!" . Luckily, it was way way better. The Silverbac is built much better, lid is much heavier. That is my honest 2cents.
Yeah traeger has to be most poorly build pellet grill since they moved manufacturing to China. But other than Pit Boss and GMG Daniel Boone you beat the price with all the extra features. $550 for GMG is a pretty good price. But the Grilla Grill does look nice. Just wish I could see it in person.
I have seen both in person now, and there is no comparison from a quality standpoint. I will say that Louisiana Grills are pretty good too. Good luck with your choice.
Is flare ups a problem on this grill?
There are no flare ups at all with a pellet smoker unless you don't keep your grill clean. The flame and the grill grate are separated by the heat shield and the drip pan. All of the grease hits the drip pan and goes into the grease can. I line my drip pan with foil for easy cleanup.
@@JusPiddlinBBQ Awesome., I plan to go buy the Grilla.
Bro thanks for doing this video buddy have you tried steak on that grill?
I have. Steaks are super Juicy. I'll try to do a video doing steaks soon. Thanks for watching@
Thanks buddy God bless y'all
Same to you Brandon.
its all about the flavor. Gas adds no flavor.
a baseball game or a tennis match...... Sorry, just don't see you watching a tennis match.
Whats the highest temp on that grill
Twisted Clown 500
That's not grilling. I don't even see grill marks.
Then don’t do it dummy!
Whens' the next video? You've gone silent!
Gonna film one tomorrow. Life gets in the way sometimes, daughter with tennis matches, son with baseball games, etc......thanks for asking though!
