Great job buddy!! That video turned out fantastic! I love it
Thanks Jake and I couldn't have done it without your help brother!! Again, thanks brother!!
Always good videos! Keep em going !
Thanks Jason!! This one was fun to make but a lot of editing hinder time!! hahahha Like always brother, thanks for watching and leaving a comment!!
Outstanding advice Jeff! Always pushing out great content...keep it up brutha!
Thanks Shane!
Thank you! Not only was this educational, but also very entertaining. I am definitely a new subscriber.
Thanks for joining the Nation!! I appreciate you watching!
Great tips, been using yoder pellet grill for about two years now and real happy with it, before I used charbroil from lowes for about five years and it worked pretty good but eventually area around fire pot burned out and rusted through. I also picked up a used egg and between the yoder and green egg its been going pretty well
Heck ya Andrey!! I have used my buddies Yoder YS640 and I really like that pit! Someday I will have one on staff. Fun how we all start with some type of great starter pit but if we really like the hobby eventually we all step up to a pit that has the potential to last a lifetime!! I am glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching and leaving a comment!!
Very helpful information, and yes, I did screen shot that table😊👍
Awesome Bobbi!! I do have a typo in there, ugh the Traeger 780 is only 780 sq. in. of cooking space. Dang it I guess I was looking to hard at it!!! hahaha Like always thanks for watching Bobbi!!
You nailed it brother awesome video get it!!! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks Jeremy and I glad to hear you enjoyed the video brother!!! Keep that smoke rolling!!!
Was gifted a Z for Last Christmas. Used it all winter. Holds temp well, creates lots of smoke, and I get nice smoke rings.
Awesome!! I have liked my Z Grills as well! They run dang good and a good price!! Thanks for watching!!
Cool video Jeff!👍
Thanks Joe and I am glad you enjoyed this one!!! Fun video to film and edit for sure!!!
Thanks for the time and info!! Just joined the Nation!!!👍🏾
Awesome! Thanks for watching and welcome to the Nation!!! Glad I could help you out!!!
I picked up a traegar pro 575 and I have loved every second with it
I own a Green mountain Smoker, the Jim Bowie model I absolutely love this grille. It came with a PID controller I bought a free standing shelf that allows me. For room for more baby
Ribs
Bought my Rec Tec 700 Bull 2.5 years ago and never looked back. Also 6 year warranty is awesome. My daytime job is a Pitmaster at a local BBQ restaurant and my Rec Tec is my home version.
Heck ya Jim! I hope to get another RecTeq in this year and I have enjoyed running the 540! But I got so many different pits rolling in I might have to wait until next year! Thanks for watching brother!!
Thanks for the info and the laughs!
I appreciate you watching!
Great Video! I bought my first pellet grill from z grills. Love my z grill and have had zero problems after two years. I researched, watched video comparisons and based on size, performance, free cover and free shipping and price.
I been very happy with the couple Z Grills I have owned myself!! Good pit and I enjoy running them! They are good people and working with their company! Thanks for watching!!
Started with a hand me down propane cabinet...last year I jumped up to a pit boss 1150 pro. I targeted the 36 inch size, cause like a truck, you will regret too small... I got 4 racks of baby back ribs on it, and fed everyone. The pork belly burnt ends are always a hit. My next door neighbor also has a grill, and some days, it seems like there's a bbq comp going on.
Awesome William, sounds like a fun neighborhood!!! The 1150 is a nice pit for sure!
Got my LSG and loving it!!! Tommy from Gallery Backyard BBQ is coming over tomorrow to see it and shoot a video I believe!!!
Heck ya Robert!! I am glad you enjoy that beast!! Tommy said he is heading over tomorrow!! I am sure he will fall in love with it!! Make sure he doesn't try to load it up in his truck before he heads home!!! hahahahah
Thank you for the helpful video!!!
Thanks for watching!!
great video about grills this is amazing
Thanks for watching Elvis!!!
Definitely a lot of options out there for sure. A 20 pound hopper will get through a 12 hour cook no problem, in most cases. I did just a 14 hour overnight in 42F weather and had no issues. Good video!
Ya I have always had success with 20lbs but I have had comment where people,have had issues. I just like that bigger hopper the LSG had, I am spoiled now!!! hahaha Thanks for watching!!
About a year ago I upgraded my twenty year Traeger to a pits and spits grill with the smoke cage best investment ever. I will keep this grill for twenty years too
Great video! I have a Recteq and it works great
Awesome I just got a RecTeq 340 and I am excited to try it out! Thanks for watching!!
Lonestar on order!
Heck ya! You will love that pit, I am firing mine up right now to do some pulled chuck and a couple racks of St. Louis ribs. Awesome pit!!!
Awesome video ricer 👍🏻🤙🏻
Thanks Shaun!!! Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for leaving a comment!
First video of yours I’ve seen. Instant sub for the Tecmo Bowl reference. Awesome.
Hahahaha glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching and welcome to the Nation!!
What a fantastic and informative video, editing was 100% on point (as always). Really enjoyed this one buddy!
Thanks Darrin! This one was fun to make, ya my hinder is a little flatter from that edit but worth the time!! I appreciate you watching brother and leaving a comment!!
one of the things I wish would have been covered is the noise. These things are so noisy. Its definitely not relaxing to have on your porch unless you have a stereo so loud the neighbors will hate you. I was so close to getting a Camp Chef but after hearing one run, that was it for me. I'll stick with my WSM for smoking and gas grill for grilling.
@@bobf5360 they’re not that loud. I can’t speak for camp chef, but others I’ve cooked on aren’t bad.
@@AshKickinBBQ I guess its all relative. If you live in more remote areas or have music on in the background, maybe it's not noticeable. For me, stick/offset smokers and WSMs make no noise, so anything more is noticeable, especially if you're going to go all night and you have neighbors closer. Maybe it would be helpful for them to post noise levels during operation in dB?
Had my Rec Tec RT-700 for 3 years. PID controller and solid 304 stainless contruction...Best buy I have ever made
I will have a couple RecTecs in the future! I got the 340 right now and soon will post a video! Thanks for watching!
I got a Pitboss 1100 going on 3 years and it is awesome. I didn't know anything about pellet smokers did very little research just went with PB for price and size vs Trager.
I had the 1100 and that was the 1st pellet grill I bought. I cooked on a few before I bought one but once I did I said this is a must to have in my arsenal, I just don't have time to tend a fire on every cook these days!! Thanks for watching!!
Best summary I’ve found on UA-cam. I’m going to get the Pit Boss Laredo 1000. Seems to be best value all around for small family or small get togethers.
Heck ya! Great starter pit and certainly will run good for the value! If you want a little more smoke and a tube to bump up that smoke profile a little more!! Thanks for watching and have fun!
"Go up a size" so true. I have a Yoder 480, should have spent the extra and got the 640.
Ya Stephen I have been told so many times I wish I bought the next model up! Thanks for watching brother!!
Very Good info and tips. This will be useful in my pellet smoker purchase. I like the Pit Boss pros and Camp Chef Woodwind. But still open to other options. Nicely Done. Thanks for sharing. 😎🇺🇸.
One of these days I am certainly going to have a CampChef on staff!! I love the value of the Pit Boss Pro Series pits!! Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching!!!
@@DeadBrokeBBQ I got the CC Woodwind solely for the ash dump and the slide and grill features. I never use the latter but the former still makes it #1 for me. Fabulous feature.
I run a Masterbuilt 1050 off a Makita 18V battery with a usb charging adapter and a 5v-12v step up transformer. I can run a 16 hour smoke and have about 60% battery left.
That is awesome! I have used my Lion Energy power station many times to run one of my pellet grills up north! Thanks for watching and I appreciate you leaving this comment!
I'm still waiting on my LSG 20x42 to get here. :(... but while i am waiting i am purchasing all my accessories. Pellets a few varieties. Lumber jack, cookinpellets, different flavors to test out. And 5 gallon buckets to keep them in. Just got pink butcher paper delivered 24"x700' big roll and the stand/cutter is on its way. Maybe an injector kit to be added eventually. All good stuff from watching your videos. Thx for taking the time producing them. You are helping many get stared and to be able to enhance and amplify our backyard BBQ fun. Thx again Ricer
Heck ya Brian!! That is so smart to get the little things all in place so you are ready to jump right in and get cooking once you burn off that LSG!! I feel your pain brother, I waited for almost 2 years for mine!!! I know they have a ton of them ordered but everyday the waiting game gets closer to the end!!! Thanks for watching brother!!
My first pellet grill was a Traeger, BBQ-075, was purchased in 2010 for $1200. The Traeger is now in semi retirement. I picked up a Pit Boss Austin XL at the end of season last year, for $300. Theb initial build quality of the PB was far superior to that of the Traeger. Of course, the Traeger has been modded over the years and it's still runs like a champ. Inexpensive mods were a Savannah Stoker PID controller, higher RPM auger motor, brushless induction fan, and a front shelf.
Depending on pricing and the space you have available for storage, you might want to consider buying two smaller units instead of a large one. Foods like brisket and pulled pork cook at completely different temperatures than foods like turkey or chicken.
Great tip Jeremy!! I agree I will always need to pellet grills and not because I cook so much food but I like some of the pellet grills I have ran better for cooking poultry. My Smoke Daddy 1190 made some of the best turkey and chicken I have ever smoked on a pellet grill no reason why but it just does??!!! Plus filling up one pit and cooking with it full takes forever so 2 you can crank out the protein even faster!! I appreciate you leaving the comment brother and thanks for watching!!
Great breakdown I got the Green Mountain myself. Subbed up!
Thanks for watching and keep the smoke rolling!!!
Great advice and things to consider Ricer !
Thanks Kent! Just trying to help people pick the right pellet grill for their needs! Thanks for watching brother!
Agreed. Nice job!
Great Review!
Thanks for watching Rod!
A bit late to the party comment on this video, but I just wanted to drop a note. I'm looking at getting a pellet grill and came across your channel. Appreciate your work, and I enjoy your videos. Thank you.
Thanks for watching and glad you enjoy my content!! Good luck on your search!! They all do a pretty good job!!!I appreciate you leaving a nice comment!
Some great tips! Especially the idea to go a size larger. Don't always have to entertain, though successful BBQ might change that.
Thanks for watching Stacie! You never know when you have a few extra people stop by and having that extra room always helps!
I went with Pit Boss. Got the 500 Lexington Onyx Edition at Walmart. I love it.
Awesome!!!! Enjoy amplifying that food!!! Thanks for watching!!
Tecmo Bowl Champion!
Awesome food for thought. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!!! Ya good ole Tecmo bowl!!! hahaha
I bought the PitBoss 1150….couldn’t be happier!
Heck ya, great pit!!! Thanks for watching!!!
I've had the Yoder YS640 for a couple of years now. Flawless cook every time
Nice pit!!! Thanks for watching!!
Great video!
Thanks for watching!
Another great video and very informative. When people ask me about my pellet smoker now I have a go to video to send them. My issue is I’ve ordered a 20X36 LSG and my build email should be coming sometime in Mid December and I could go bigger then. The 42 is only a few bucks more and it’s not the money but the space on my smaller backyard.
The 36 will already be more than 2 times my current grill. Decisions decisions??
Ya Jerry bigger is good but not always the answer!! I say you are taking a big step up and you will have plenty of room in the 36" but that jump up to the 42" certainly is not a lot of extra money!! That 6 inches though can mean another brisket!!! hahahaha Thanks for watching brother and glad you enjoyed the video!!
I was looking at a pit boss 850, but I went with the 1150 for the easy ash clean out. Don't have any complaints other than than the front shelf can collect more trash if the inlaid logo. It collectos more than I would like it to, and it's kind of a pain to clean out. Other than that I love it. I've smoked many a pork butt and brisket on it. I'm gonna smoke a couple of turkeys for Thanksgiving on it.
I agree 100% about the front shelf Robert!! Obviously I film so I have to clean my pits good so they look nice in the video and having to clean that shelf is just adding more work that really isn't necessary!! Thanks for watching and glad you enjoy the 1150!!
I bought one bigger than I actually needed. But got it on sale and it comes in handy when cooking for more than wife and I
Smart man Mark!! Good job when it comes to a pit having more than enough room is a great bonus!
Great info! Definitely helpful! -S
Thank you and I appreciate you watching!!
I have a rt-700 from REC-TEQ love it.
I hope to get a bigger RecTeq in here next year Jeff!! Thanks for watching brother!!
FINALLY!! The WNBA meets pellet grills! So should I just unplug it when cooking?? Covered a lot of good information and the guest start Jake was incredible!!
Heck ya brother!! Certainly need to give the WNBA some props!!! Glad you enjoyed the video brother but leave it plugged in until the cool down has finished!!! Thanks for watching brother!!!!
Loved the techno bowl nostalgia
Thanks for watching!! Did I give away my age?!?!? hahaha
Great video very informative! Nice job editing all those money shots together!
Thanks Rusty! Yeah this one took sometime to edit!! Just finding all the clips from the past 2 plus years!! ha ha Thanks for watching brother!!
I’m actually looking at a brand called Victory. It’s built buy the company BBQ guy’s. 35 inch model I believe.
I have seen them but never cooked on one. Not sure if they build them or not but I know they sell them. Let me know if you get one and how it does!! Thanks for watching!!
Great vid... I'm looking video... getting into pellet grill but wasn't sure where to start. I mainly cook for me, my two boys and my Dad. Mostly cook your burgers, steaks, one in a while ribs... any suggestions? Also, I live in colder Midwest Temps, prefer cooking most of the year.
If you like to grill and want a little flame kissing the protein then a pit boss is a good option! But honestly I just grill on high with my pellet grills and still get good char marks! thanks for watching!!
Great video Jeff! Lots of options out there nowadays! Pellet grills are here to stay and I'm loving my LSG pellet grill! I don't watch the WNBA, but I sure like the women"s wrestling on the WWE 🤣 Dude! You could open up a used grill lot!
Heck ya Rus! My LSg is hands down my go to pellet grill because of the flavor that pit adds to my pellet grill bbq! Oh ya I really like the WWE women's wrestling also!!! Ya I might need to have an auction soon!! ha ha Like always thanks for watching brother!!
@@DeadBrokeBBQ own a Traeger right now , my brother in law has a req-teq. So in my search for the best pellet grill , I watched your videos and that helped me pull the trigger on a LSG. It should be here sometime around Thanksgiving,love your vids ! Traeger is going to my youngest daughter.
Great video ricer
Thanks Bud!
I have the Recteq Bullseye. It's basically a pellet fired Weber Kettle. 200-749 degrees for $400. It's just me here, so I didn't need a big smoker and I do more burgers and chicken than I do smoking big cuts of meat. It smokes just fine and will sear a ribeye perfectly. I have the Grillgrates and the griddle addons for it. Pulled pork, steaks, chicken, bacon, eggs, pancakes all turn out great in the Bullseye.
One of these days I will get a Bullseye in here and give it a work out! Thanks for watching!
I HAVE A PITBOSS 1150 NOW BUT HAVE A LSG ON ORDER
Same I have a 1150 pro and I love it. My dream would be to get a loan star as well but I can’t afford it.
Heck ya great choice!!! Thanks for watching brother!!
Penny jar it for a while bro until you can save up enough! They are going to make this pit for a very very long time so it ain't going anywhere!!!! You will get one someday!!
Likeable right off the bat.
buy once cry once. Great guide Jeff.
Thanks Brian!!! Hope to help some of the people thinking about what they want or need in a pellet grill! Like always brother, thanks for watching!!
Best video for a beginner ❤
Thanks for watching!
I did a ton of research AFTER I purchased my pellet grill 🤣 but when I saw the Oklahoma Joe DXL for 60% off I could not pass it up and paired it with the cover because I knew where it was going to be stored. Can’t wait for my first cook and smoking my first turkey!
Heck ya John sometimes we come across a deal and you have to jump on it!! I enjoyed my DLX, just watch those temps and make sure you always dump out the pellet and burn out the auger after every cook. They are know for auger jams but it cooks great!!
Did you get yours for 267? I had treager wore it out..pit boss would catch on fire ..I just bought the Oklahoma joe,s Pellet grill..I actually like it a lot..
Guess who is going to be playing Tecmo Bowl tonight now!
Hahahahahh you're welcome Mike!! hahaha such a fun game even if the graphics are horrible compared to video games these days!! Thanks for watching bro!!
Love my Silverback Grilla Grill
I hope to have one of those in here in 2022! Thanks for watching!!
I took a vertical smoker and converted it from charcoal to propane, and then I re-converted it to charcoal/wood. The skills pay the bills, but from what I’ve seen a pellet smoker just makes it easier. I kind of want to go with the stick burner. But I keep coming back to this.
If you enjoy cooking BBQ, eventually you will have several types of cookers. Thanks for watching!!
@@DeadBrokeBBQ oh I have been doing this stuff for 15 years. I do want a pellet one tho,
I love my pit boss T2 1000, just wish it had more incremental settings
Ya they need to start making all of theirs with at least the 10° increments!
Really wish I could afford a loan star grillz. Have wanted one since I fist saw them getting into the pellet world. Thing is so beautiful
Hopefully in time brother!!! Like I said earlier the LSG will be around forever and in time there will be used ones out in the market!! Thanks for helping out David with you comment!!
I have been wanting a LSG pit long before the pellet grill came along. As a single mother I have to save up for my ultimate pellet grill hopefully by 2023 grill season I will have mine paid for and delivered.
Now about $5000 after shipping cost, I wonder if people will still pay that much 6 months from now when Yoder is around $3000 shipped
Ricer, well done. I liked how you presented this information. And it's a tricky question to answer. Especially if the viewer is new to outdoor cooking. I believe the most common misconception for folks who are new to outdoor cooking is the thought that if they spend a ton of money on a cooker that they will be making the best bbq there is ( wow,was that a long sentence, I need to work on that 🙃) . And unfortunately I believe this turns some folks off to getting started in outdoor cooking. Harry Soo is correct, it's not the pit,it's the pitmaster. A person can cook great food on a cheaper cooker. But boy howdy, a better built ( more expensive) cooker sure makes the cook easier and more enjoyable. That's why I like the idea of having some sort of experience level classifications. Beginners, experienced, pro or compat
Dang,hadn't finished, oh well. You get the idea. Anyway I have gone on to long as normal. So anyway, great video. One more thing, that was great seeing you get all those young adults into the video. Well done. Sir have a great day. 👍😁🍻🌤
Like always Victor you always have great value in your comment and I appreciate you adding them to the video!! I certainly plan to do more videos like this and compare even more things. This one was made for a person just thinking they want to buy one but really have no idea what pellet grills can all do and a few of the creature comforts of life they provide. Like always brother, thanks for watching!!
My Yoder coming in next week :)
Great channel. Looking for a new pellet grill. Living in Newfoundland, Canada and I would like to use the grill throughout the winter. I have narrowed my decision between the Traeger Timberline and the Louisiana Grill Founders Legacy Series. I would appreciate your feedback/opinion on these grills and which would you prefer?
If you have the money for the Timberline I would say get that one. The controller is very good on that pit. I like the Louisiana pits but a Timberline is a hung higher up the ladder again just because of the controller. Hope this helps!!! Thanks for watching and HAVE FUN with that new pit Brian!!
@@DeadBrokeBBQ Thanks for the feedback, Ieither
The WNBA, Tecmo Bowl. Man, Ricer is on-point with the references in this vidya. 😂
Hahaha thanks Connor!!! I appreciate you watching brother!!
Who would've known its so many things you had to consider with a grill/smoker haha Thanks for the video. I am trying to narrow all that down now.
Hahahah ya they all have different features but most of them all get the same results. Budget and features are the biggest thing to remember. Thanks for watching and good luck on your search!!
@@DeadBrokeBBQ lol good thing I am not in a rush to get one
I looked everywhere for the right pellet grill. There were so many with overpriced features I would never use, or cheap materials that would not be reliable for the long term. I finally found my perfect grill, and I couldn't be happier. My Zgrills 700D4E is the perfect size, has high quality materials, and helps me make incredible food. My wife follows a strict diet for health reasons, and being able to maximize flavor in lean meats, veggies and seafood without too many sugars, extras etc. has been great.
That is awesome Matt!! I have been pretty happy with the Z Grill pits I have owned also! They run great! Glad you are enjoying yours!! Thanks for watching!!
Remember Hibachi’s. Goin all out in 1974!
Hahahah ya I had a small Hibachi grill back in the day!!
Love my zgrills 700D4E. It has all the features of most of the other models. It also has the PID. If you have a large family you may want the Z Grills1000 series.😄
Heck ya Gaby!! My Z Grills have ran great and I enjoy working with the company!! They came out with a new pit and I hope to showcase that on the channel soon too!! Thanks for watching!!
Need your opinion . . choosing between Pit Boss Pro 850, Grilla Grills Silver Bac and Traeger Ironwood 855. I know there is a big swing in price but the Traeger is at my top end, but could stretch if it's worth it.Thanks
Hard for me to answer that but all 3 are decent pits. I think the Traeger is a bit over priced though.
I was thinking about buying a new smoker.Have you seen the new Pitboss competition series. I was thinking about buying the 1600cs
I hope to get one in this fall but I think the new Elite at Lowes has a better controller. Thanks for watching!
Hey Ricer…Do you feel the LSG puts out too much smoke? Does it make the food taste bitter? I want to pull the trigger on one, but I don’t live near enough to Willis, Texas to see one in person. I’m relying on videos like yours to help me make an informed purchase. Great work, thanks.
It smokes but no the food is the best pellet grill BBQ flavor I have ever made hands down. I have fed my friends that also have pellet grills and they have all said it beats the bbq they have made on their pits. My good friend Tommy from Backyard BBQ is cooking on a LSg tomorrow and filming it. It is a subscriber of his so that is a good test to see what Tommy thinks of the pit. Plus my other good friend Rus Jones from Smoky Ribs and I talk everyday and we both agree that the LSG is the closest thing you can get to an offset. Plus the airflow in this pit runs way faster than my old offset did so the smoke doesn't hang in the chamber long at all. Just kisses and blasts out to the neighbors house so they get hungry too!! Join the Lone Star Grillz Facebook group. Lots of people posting in there. FYI the LSG pellet grill will never leave my house until I am dead and then my boys can fight over it!! hahaha Thanks for watching and the LSG is the real deal.
Thank you for sharing. I’ve viewed yours and Rus’s videos many times over. I’ll check out Tommy’s too.
2:56 sounds like the auger was working fine in her firebox. Hey-ooooo. ;-)
(My wife’s gonna kill me when she sees this.)
HAhahaha ya thank gawd I am married and my neighborhood is loaded with silvers because with that stack in my garage the smell of BBQ covers 3 square blocks!!! hahaha Thanks for watching Justin but I suggest you hide this one from your wife, I would prefer her to only knowing me as the Turkey video guy!!! ha ha
@@DeadBrokeBBQ Correction: The "Viking Norwegian Tornado Turkey Video Guy"
HAHAHAHA perfect!!!
It's probably good to look if the grill has a ceramic rod which much more reliable than a metal rod which heats the pellets. The metal rod will fail after a couple of years and need to be replace.
Ya Wayne I hope that pellet grills eventually all have the ceramic ignition!!! Thanks for watching!!!
Can you do a video sometime comparing and letting us know what your favorite pellets are in terms of smoke flavor?
Sure I can do that one of these days! Typically nut trees for beef and sometimes pork. Fruit woods for poultry and fish!! My favorite pellet flavor is oak but I really like hickory on pork ribs!!! Cherry wood is typically the pellet I use on poultry. Thanks for watching!!
Wait here in Texas we don't have an end to BBQ season. So that sucks lol
Where are you at in Wisconsin? I live in Fond du Lac and I am planning on a pellet grill upgrade. Considering Lone Star or Yoder.
I live between Stevens Point and Waupaca. 100% the only choice is the Lone Star Grillz pellet grill. I have ran both and the Yoder just isn't as beefy and can't produce the amount of smoke that the LSG can. Thanks for watching and On Wisconsin!!!
Eye balling the members mark pro series pellet smoker but being so new on no reviews on UA-cam, it's got me nervous..
I will have to see one and maybe try to get it on the channel! Buying a pellet grill is so much harder than it was 5 years ago because there are so many models and price ranges!!! Thanks for watching !!
Bro do you have any tips for steaks on a traeger 780? Mine never turn out just right.
Reverse sear. I did a video "short" using the Traeger on a reverse seared steak and just seared them with a cast iron pan. This is my preferred way using a pellet grill. Hope this helps!
9 years my 1st, and on year 4 with my 2nd... and I USE mine year round cause I kill stuff year round. I can't believe it took me 9 years to wear out my 1st. Traeger, THE original pellet grill.
Those old Traegers were work horses for sure!! Great pit! Thanks for watching!
@@DeadBrokeBBQ you bet!
Have you tried the recteq? I’m between the RT1250 and the Weber 2nd gen pellet smoker. The price difference is substantial though.
I would lean towards the Rec Teq. Nice pit and hopefully one of these days I get that model on my channel. Also add a Camp Chef in the loop. I don’t think the Weber is still preforming as advertised.
@@DeadBrokeBBQ awesome! Thank you! Psyched to find your channel today. Subbed.
My biggest concern is rust. I need a grill with a Stainless steel fire box! My last one lasted a year and it's rusted out! BTW, I live close to the Gulf Coast of Texas.
RecTec or the Camp Chef woodwind pro might be your answer.

Can you please 🙏 do a side by side cook comparison table top electric
ninja wood fire 🔥 pellet grill and the pit boss pellet grill?
Cook chicken 🍗 wings or legs
I don’t know which one to purchase they’re no UA-cam videos comparing them
Thanks
Probably not but where do you want to cook? Indoors out outdoors? That should be the answer. I will say that an indoor smoker will NOT produce the smoke flavor a pellet grill can. Thanks for watching!!!
@@DeadBrokeBBQ
It will be for outdoor use, just wanted a side by side comparison
Dude, your hot brother! It's just a matter of when! Awesome video man. great info! Cheers. 1598Sq, what up. lol
Thanks Tommy! Ugh I just don’t get how I missed that on the 780. Oh well lesson learned. Glad you enjoyed the video brother!! Thanks for watching !
LSG pellet on my wish list. I've been using a GMG for 10 years. Decent grill but definitely not in the same class as the LSG...price reflects that.
Go Pack Go!
Heck ya Richard! The LSG is a fantastic pit and still to this day my favorite pellet grill I own! Heck ya GO PACK GO!!! Thanks for watching!
LSG is on my wishlist as well, need to save up for it though.
@@Miss_Cali you will be very happy with the purchase of the LSG pit!!! It is a beast and still my favorite pellet grill to date!! Thanks for watching!
@@Miss_Cali I pulled the trigger and put my order in a couple weeks ago. Lead time is about 18 weeks right now because of supply issues but I'm looking forward to having it this fall!
Hey Jeff. What sort of ventilation do you use to smoke in the garage?
I have 3 900 cfm exhaust fans in my studio now. 2 in the roof and one in a window! Thanks for watching!!
@@DeadBrokeBBQ Thank you, I have a tall garage and am trying to prevent smok from causing issues but don't have anywhere outside to really use my smoker
I started with a flex pipe and put that over the stack and ran it out a wood stove chimney. But now with all these open back exhaust pellet grills I test, I had to add the exhaust fans.

First off, I love my Traeger but it can’t keep steady temperature. It wants to rise every time.
YA they can be tricky sometimes! Thanks for watching!!
❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for watching!
Dayum bro wrap it up. That's a nation of kids 😅. Thanks for vid
hahahaha that was a bunch of kids on a tour of my studio. hahah Thanks for watching!!!
This entire video sounded like a Ford F150 commercial 😂
And you call yourself a Norwegian----your mom must be polish? hahaha But honestly thanks for watching and earning me more bling brother but you can always send UA-cam a request to get your money back if you want???!!!!!!hahahahahahaha Win win for me right!!! hahaha
why no Camp Chef in the comp list? I think they are really good but the customer service in my experience is so much better than I experienced with Trager!
I just don't have one yet and no experience operating one yet! Goal for 2022 is to get one in here! Thanks for watching!!
I saw a blackstone pellet grill/griddle combo at Lowe's for $1100, where one side is a pellet grill and the other side is a 26" griddle. I know blackstone does the griddle well obviously, but not sure how they do a pellet grill. Anyone have one of these?
I will be getting one hopefully soon but the video will be posted on Smoked BBQ Source's UA-cam channel. Thanks for watching!!
