    Good review. Since it’s a pellet smoker and they don’t produce a lot of smoke flavor I’d like you to test adding a wood chunk above the fire pot. Thank you.

    I bought a Grilla Grill Silverbak after your review last year - It’s absolutely amazing. I’d love to get my hands on one of these Mammoths, but would honestly be overkill for my needs. As always, I enjoy the reviews, keep them up!

      Glad to hear that you're enjoying the Silverbak! I know we love ours, and there were times where we were cooking for friends where I wished we had more room. The Mammoth more than makes up for that extra space I was wanting. One of these days, I'm going to load it up with pork butts and see how many I can fit on there. I'm thinking 20 minimum probably? Sounds like a fun test.

    Been waiting a while for a good review on the Mammoth. I've been looking for a good quality pellet smoker to go along with my offset. I like the size of the form factor, but I'm a little worried about build quality and reliability over time. I hope that you plan to give us a long term update on it in the future.

    • @TheBarbecueLab

      I’m not sure a custom reverse flow and a pellet grill can compete in flavor. I think where the Chimp shines is in convenience and portability.

    Great overview! I’ve got one arriving in a few days. I noticed your’s did not have a pellet window on the back like the earlier versions did. Did Grilla give an explanation for the change or make any other design modifications you know of? The pellet hopper rubber gasket seemed new as well.

    • @TheBarbecueLab
      @TheBarbecueLab  2 місяці тому +2

      I asked Grilla about the pellet window being gone, and they said that it was for moisture reasons around the pellet hopper. I can only imagine what they'd have to do to remedy having someone get water in their hopper because of that window over time, so I'm guessing that's what led to the change. Was it more convenient with the window? Yep. Do I feel better about leaving my Mammoth out in the rain now? Also Yep.

    Ok so its double walled. Great but it doesn't look like it was very thick and would be very efficient for those of us in northern states where it gets cold. Yes. I like to smoke in December in Michigan. Everyone will say go buy a weld blanket at Harbor Freight...blah blah. Nope if I have to do that then why buy the product? Right now, I use my Primo XL in December. (4 inch ceramic walls, holds temp wonderfully in December) Down side is it doesn't have the capacity for a larger or long cooks. So still on the look out for a reasonably priced smoker with some capacity that performs well in the cold climate to add and/or replace one of the cookers in my collection.

    I sold my mammoth to many issues with controler. Had 2 shut downs durning butt cooks. The briskets came out with weak bark. I have on average 8-12 smokers in my pit at anytime. Better off hanging ribs in hasty roughneck or hunsaker drum. 999 buy a GMG peak so much better….

    Would you prefer this or the Trager ironwood that you also did a review on ?

    • @TheBarbecueLab
      @TheBarbecueLab  Місяць тому +1

      That's a great question. If you're talking about the Ironwood XL, that grill is double the price of the Mammoth. The Mammoth has much more cooking space, but each shelf will drip juices on the shelf below it. You're self basting meats that way, but some people like the clean offset style look of nothing dripping on their foods from above. That's one factor to consider for sure. They're both set it and forget it, so they're very easy to run. The way I cook, I'd take the Traeger for everyday backyard cooking for the family. For the times where I'm cooking for larger groups and using lots of foil pans, The Mammoth wins hands down.

      Don't do it for Camp Chef XXL Pro. You'll encounter issues and cheaply made product that doesn't insulate well. I donated mine and bought a Mammoth - Mammoth slaughters the XXL Pro. Only thing the Pro offers is the ability to do wood chunks and chips and charcoal whereas Mammoth only does wood chips and chunks.

      @TheBarbecueLab  2 місяці тому +1

      @@mastermachetier5594 it really depends on how much quantity you’re wanting to smoke and if you plan on grilling as well. If 3-4 pork butts or 1 brisket is all you plan on cooking, Silverbak is a great fit for that. If you also want to grill steaks and chicken thighs, the Silverbak will do that. If you want to do 20 pork butts or 8-10 briskets, that’s the Mammoth for me.

    • @TheBarbecueLab
      @TheBarbecueLab  2 місяці тому +1

      Great question. There's a pellet dump at the bottom of the hopper, so it's just finding a low enough sided vessel to dump your pellets in. A foil hotel pan would work great as long as you're dumping 20lbs of pellets or less. More pellets than that, I'd probably buy a special tub to release pellets into like a low sided rubbermaid bin with a lid.
