I do NOT know who did all the Filming and EDITING on this video... but I was super impressed by the first 34 seconds... WOW... "BRAVO" to whomever Filmed and Edited this Video... EXCELLENT VIDEO.
Picked mine up yesterday from Target. they currently have a 40% off sale on these! Question: mine does not have those handles on the side of your unit. Was that something you added?
Loved your Assembly help on this but not surprised @ your Gifts as the ONLY Steak I eat is the Spinallis (Rib Eye Cap). What a find you are !!! My 1st. Cook will be a small Brisket. Any advice on Settings? It's currently soaking in Brine & Blue Agave ... Thank you Sir!!!
How come you haven’t made any more videos with the tabletop Pit Boss? Is it having issues that causes you not using it? Just asking because I could pick one up for $172 but I’ve seen some videos that its had hopper fires. Thanks for your time.
Considering real hard about this unit for the rv. Already have a 22 inch griddle. Just have to wrap my head around pellet smoker for 3 people instead of full blown barrel smoker brimming with meat
If you have access to power this is a great option for RV. Pit Boss also just came out with a battery powered table top pellet smoker so that would be something to deff check out if you don't have access to power.
@@GrillSergeant thanks for the reply Sgt. I do watch videos on this unit to tip me off of the fence. The Ninja Co. has surprised me with a couple of units. I watched a couple of your videos on the Brunswick. Very good, thanks and keep up the good work
Hi Grill Sargeant. I'm so glad you did this cook for 2 reasons. First-sear n smoke Ribeyes can't beat that. Good eats. Second glad to see YT BBQ guru cook with a portable pellet. My first pellet grill was a country Smokers Traveler (which is also a Danson company). Those Danson tabletops ( pit boss and Country Smokers) are really affordable pellet smokers and fits in my basement of the rv. Great job always play catch with the grilling help dog!
How many watts does it pull. Trying to see if my factory power inverter in my Jeep will power the grill or will I have to bring my generator to the beach.
Good deals on this smoker right now but after I checked around it seems like the fire tends go back up the auger and into the pellet chamber. To bad because its exactly what i am looking for
I have yet to experience that but a trick I do is if I’m running the smoker really hot (400+) before I start the shutdown cycle I will turn it to 200 degrees for 10 mins to cool down the smoker before I turn it off.
Hello Do you stil use this portable Pit Boss ? because is would buy one in Belgium the Navigator 150 its e a Europe model ! BBQ greetings Jurgen from Belgium
Didn't see a pronounced sear. Perhaps a longer time over the flame would have with the lid up would have produced a better sear? Looked tasty however. Getting one anyway. Great for a quick week night steak. Thanks Gril Sgt!
Great video. That sear plate sets this apart and above the Traeger IMO. My question is can you smoke a brisket in this? Because your doing it in something else much larger seems to suggest that you can’t.
@@GrillSergeant I just found and subscribed to your channel. Maybe you could do a segment on the versatility of this grill with more tips like the ribeye caps?
@@davecamp5491 I second this I’m subbing now and liking specifically for this travel version smoker! I’m highly interested in this thing which will lead me to other bigger smokers I’m sure! Just getting into smoking!
@@davecamp5491 it is extremely versatile ... Cast Iron pans are super , anything can be cooked/grilled/smoked in a pan/dish to save drippings ... Think about baking a cake !! Fried eggs !! Braised/Smoked Ribs !! MMmmMMmmmm !
Hello Sergeant I Buy the Navigator 150 Pit Boss in Belgium have now a week 😁 do some Hotdogs and do a smoke sea bass , today we make chicken sausages and zucchini slices its do the job fantastic . thanks for the feedback greets
@@GrillSergeant it has thermometer probe included and handles on the sides, that i wish mine had.im just curious about the price on the version u got from pit boss
Do you ever have problems with the pellets smoking in the hopper? I have run into this frequently when using this model. Never had this problem with my larger GMG Davy Crockett and Daniel Boone models.
I have a full sized Pit Boss. That small grill grate is only good for one steak at a time if you want a good sear. If you were to talk this camping, what is the minimum you would need for a generator?
@@GrillSergeant Mine is charcoal. I have an offset plate for low & slow & 220mm riser with rotisserie. It's awesome when camping or small quick cooks at home.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME those look so good wish i was there to taste it! I think I'm gonna go ahead and purchase this grill on sale today, seals the deal...just wonder if I can fit a leg of lamb inside :)
Looks like a nice little grill and perfect for smaller spaces! Really like your channel and appreciate the content! My questions is could you smoke small brisket on this tabletop unit and if so would it come out the same as if you did it in the larger pro-series vertical smoker?
I have the same question! Considering this grill to fulfil my dream of smoking my own brisket too lol hoping someone in the comments has an answer to this
If the brisket fits then absolutely. The only hassle would be feeding it pellets the whole time, which really wouldnt be too bad since you should be checking/spritzing every hour or so
I just purchased one. It comes in today. I am definitely doing the Rib Eye Cap as my Maiden Voyage on my new Pit Boss tabletop Smoker. Thank you for the great looking recipe.
I think it was around 30 mins with the temp I was at. If you crank it up all the way then it would cook a lot faster. But always go off of the internal probe temp and not by time.
For real. I bought a Weber Ranch with visions of huge, fun backyard BBQs. Now, everyone is afraid to hang out. Can’t wait for life to get back to normal.
I've been researching this grill for a bit now and comparing to the Treager portable one. The Pit Boss portable one you have is on sale for $300 CAD and the Treager is $600 CAD. I'm leaning towards the Pit Boss. Its my first smoker and have wanted one for years. Thanks for the informative video, I'm learning the in-s and outs through them! Did you have to refill your hopper for these steaks? How long should I expect for 7lb of pellets in hopper to last me, time wise? Thanks!
Did you end up getting it? I’m looking into getting one as well. Does it cook good? I’ve seen somethings that the pellet holder has some issues with it but I want to like this grill so I can use it for my apartment and when I go hunting
@@MxBurger I actually did buy this one. It went on sale for $300 CAD. It was a great little smoker but, cooked ribs really well, even a pork butt. But I found the hopper wasn’t big enough for me. It holds 5 pounds and I had to vacuum after that time. Kinda of put a wrench into my ten hour pork butt. I ended up returning it because I saw that as a flaw. Got the Treager 650! Really you can get any bigger smoker with a larger pellet capacity. The Treager is just a fancy one
@@GrillSergeant Thank you, was thinking of getting this but saw some reviews on smoke coming up through the hopper and flame-outs. you ever run into that before with this pit boss?
@@rjbass338 I’ve had no issues with mine. After or before every cook I will take a small shop vac and clean out the burn pot. Might be over kill but I’ve had no issues.
Oh and to answer your question, I just got back from the market to look at pork butts 😂 sorry, it sounds funny just to say that, and it looks like a pork butt will fit as long as you remove the riser grate that it comes with.
Just used mine today and it performed well on some pork belly burnt ends. Only issue was the pellets caught fire half way up the auger tube and wqs shooting flames from it and not in the pot. Dont think I trust this thing.
From some of the reviews, I thought it wouldn’t hold up very well on the first try ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxTAV04Wwc8vZvciP7ycqR1S4raCS0TnUc Not only did it hold up well for us, we BBQ’d well into the late night! So well, we could’ve done s’mores and even more. Put together was about 9 min. Will need a screwdriver No parts missing on my order which was a relief! Size big enough for four/five med. size steaks. Size of product is as described in the pics(table top). It was a great extra side addition to our other grills. The price was great as well for our bbq mission.
I purchased this unit a few months ago and used it about five times cleaning it out after each use. I just used it to cook a pork butt and after about eight hour it over heated and damaged itself. Pit Boss will not stand behind their product to replace it. The customer service agent refused to transfer me to a supervisor. This is a terrible company with terrible customer service. This is not a safe grill.
I loved the video but nextime, would you show yourself washing your hands if you must play with your dog. The visual of you eating with your hands was rather disgusting 🤢 !!
I am a little surprised at the method ... Usually you sear the meat first , and then cook until desired doneness IMHO ... Now ... You get one strike for putting the seared steaks back on the same tray in the juice/blood ... and strike 2 for eating with your fingers ! It's something I would never do , but that's OK ..... DIS Missed !! lol !!

EXCELLENT VIDEO.
This little grill really impresses me! I’ve never had this cut of steaks on its own. Adding to my list!
Cap steaks are simply the trim from a rib eye that's rolled up and tied.
Awesome video just purchased mine. Gonna using it for camping with my bed plug on my truck!
Great video! Would love to see some more cooks on the tabletop!
Just bought one today, love it. Learned a lot too. Thanks
Awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Picked mine up yesterday from Target. they currently have a 40% off sale on these!
Question: mine does not have those handles on the side of your unit. Was that something you added?
Man I LOVE ribeye cap steaks! Those things are the best and you nailed that cook bro! 👊👊👊
FYI don't closed the lid with the sear plate opened without food over it.. Your lid will thank you.
Thanks for the heads up!
Thank you 🙏🏻

Awesome! I would cover the heat deflector in aluminum foil to make clean up ez.
Just got one from targets on sale $150.00 said last 1. sweet can't wait to try it.
Just ordered mine!! Cannot wait
I have to get one of these tabletop,I have a pb820 but this is a must
Its hard to beat some well grilled cap steak, you knocked it out!
RibCap's are amazing. Digging that little table top grill. Pretty cool. Camera film quality is looking sharp. Great cook.
What is that cut of meat? I have never seen anything like it.
And we used to work on a ranch and would buy a side of beef every 6 months.
That's a slick little grill i must say. .

Do you think these would be big enough to do a small brisket. I'm wanting to get one for camping and this would be perfect.
Looks delicious and those cap steaks are pretty 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 great job brother
Do you think you could fit a brisket on it for smoking?
ALWAYS been my favorite part of the rib roast! Now I find out someone's made it's own steak!?
Looks delicious.
I'm thinking about getting this for camping in my RV. Doesn't look like a lot of grill space though.
The bottom rack measures 13.5 x 12.5 and the top rack 6 x 12 I guess it depends on how many people you are cooking for...
@@GrillSergeant 191.56 sq in main + 65 sq in upper rack = 256.56 total !!
That would be an excellent camping pellet grill if you can find a good electrical source (power inverter for vehicle if needed).
Where did you purchase the probe?
sick caps!
They were so good!
I am a trucker and I wonder if this would be good to take over the road for days when I am on a lay over for 34hrs
As long as you have access to a 110 plug this thing is perfect on the road!
Hello
Do you stil use this portable Pit Boss ?
because is would buy one in Belgium the Navigator 150 its e a Europe model !

I still love mine BUT they just came out with a battery powered one that I really want to get.
I hope there are more vids to come on that portable Pit Boss. Looks a lot more portable than mine. Swaggy
I just bought this and used it, is it supposed to sound like the fan pulsates on lower temps
Didn't see a pronounced sear. Perhaps a longer time over the flame would have with the lid up would have produced a better sear? Looked tasty however. Getting one anyway. Great for a quick week night steak. Thanks Gril Sgt!

I Buy the Navigator 150 Pit Boss in Belgium have now a week 😁
do some Hotdogs and do a smoke sea bass , today we make chicken sausages and zucchini slices
its do the job fantastic .
thanks for the feedback
greets
basically a few improvements over my country smoker table top smoker which is owned by pit boss
Mind sharing what was improved about it?
@@GrillSergeant it has thermometer probe included and handles on the sides, that i wish mine had.im just curious about the price on the version u got from pit boss
@@tophauler8626 $200 from Walmart
Do you ever have problems with the pellets smoking in the hopper? I have run into this frequently when using this model. Never had this problem with my larger GMG Davy Crockett and Daniel Boone models.
This is why I decided not to get this grill even though its on sale now cheap. I keep seeing this everywhere
Lay a 2x4 or something under the legs under the hopper. This will slope it so the burning pelts don’t roll towards the hopper
Why did you use the probe and then had to use thermometer to read the temp.
I have a full sized Pit Boss. That small grill grate is only good for one steak at a time if you want a good sear. If you were to talk this camping, what is the minimum you would need for a generator?
Question! When you open up the sear function does grease get down into the pellet pot and mess up the saw dust ?posb fire ?
Now those looked really good. Rare. Ummm good
It's not bad but I can do the same on my Weber GA. Thanks for the video.,
Love the go anywhere, is yours the charcoal version or propane?
@@GrillSergeant Mine is charcoal. I have an offset plate for low & slow & 220mm riser with rotisserie. It's awesome when camping or small quick cooks at home.
How many watts does it using? I’m curious if I can run this out the back of my truck
Does the thermometer come with the grill?
Where did you purchase this grill can you please include a link. The one on the pit boss website is not your model
www.walmart.com/ip/Pit-Boss-Table-Top-Pellet-Grill-Copper/187603912
How do you get rid of ashes after a cook?
A shop vac is your best friend :)
Can you do 4-5 hours of smoking with this thing, is the reserve of pellets big enough for the size?
I would think you could easily do 6-7 hours
@@GrillSergeant thank you sir, you just sold me a grill hehe ;-)
@@gregoirepainchaud Ha! Cheers Greg! You will love it!
Would you be able to get a brisket on this
Full packer, no. but just the point or flat I could see it working...
What type of table are you cooking on? Buying the grill curious on what I can use it on
i would stick with aluminum i havent had any issues
In the rv I have lifetime resin top folding table. My pellet and blackstone live on it
That table doesn't melt??
Zero heat under the table. You can hold your hand under the grill.
Hey Grill Sargeant. Do you think a small turkey would fit in this table top grill?

I have the same question! Considering this grill to fulfil my dream of smoking my own brisket too lol hoping someone in the comments has an answer to this
It’s the same as a large smoker so yes. Just make sure you measure the surface so your food will fit.
If the brisket fits then absolutely. The only hassle would be feeding it pellets the whole time, which really wouldnt be too bad since you should be checking/spritzing every hour or so
I have heard clean up on that or most of the table top grills is hard . What are your thoughts ??
After your cook a simple scrub down of the grates while they are still warm is easy and you are good to go.
I just purchased one. It comes in today. I am definitely doing the Rib Eye Cap as my Maiden Voyage on my new Pit Boss tabletop Smoker. Thank you for the great looking recipe.
Awesome man! Enjoy 🔥 🥩
Hey I’m new to pellet smoking and I live in a condo, does this grill product light smoke so it doesn’t cause to much attention?
Not to much smoke. You should be good if grilling on a patio
Okay thank you!!
Do these grills make a lot of smoke out of the grill?
Not really but enough to where you have to cook it outdoors tho.
How long did it take to get the rib eye to 115 internal
I think it was around 30 mins with the temp I was at. If you crank it up all the way then it would cook a lot faster. But always go off of the internal probe temp and not by time.
I'm very surprised that the grill didn't melt your plastic table. When you have 500ºF, what is the temperature between the grill and the table?
I could put my hand under the grill when it’s 500 and there is no heat under the grill.
@@GrillSergeant Thank you!
I just sit there an stare at the pit ... no smoking buddies to enjoy with
For real. I bought a Weber Ranch with visions of huge, fun backyard BBQs. Now, everyone is afraid to hang out. Can’t wait for life to get back to normal.
Sadly I haven't had anyone before all of this . I'm use to it now
