Got a 590 myself 18 months ago. WiFi makes long cooks a snap. All nighters don’t upset my sleep. Set it and forget it and serve a great brisket for dinner the next day.
Customer service sucks. I wanted to buy replacement parts. They wanted me to try a bunch of stuff first, which I did including buying $50 in tools. When that didn’t work I said I just wanted to buy replacement parts. Now they don’t respond to e-mails anymore. It worked good but customer service is bad.
Great review, sir! Funny enough, I just purchased the same grill last week and I'm awaiting delivery tomorrow (I'm in SoCal). Unfortunately, there aren't any RecTec showrooms anywhere close enough for me to visit -- so I was very jealous of you! 😊 I've been watching several "RecTec-inspired" vids in order to prepare myself for my new baby. Thanks again for showing me what the RecTec Motherland looked like. 🤣👍👍
Enjoyed your video! I live about 5 miles from Rec Teq and picked up my 590 last Friday during the Black Friday sale. The grill was regular price but came with a free competition cart during the sale. Maybe the best part was getting a fully assembled grill. I wasn't expecting that but what a nice surprise! I was doing my initial burnout within the hour.
Do you compare the 590 to the 700? I’m stuck debating which to buy. 590 is large enough for me, but I like the idea of the cold smoker attachment which only fits the 700.
Nice job on the video. I got a RT590 for Christmas and I love it. I live in Augusta so I went and picked it up too. At the time they weren't in their new place yet. What camera did you film this with? It looks nice.
What is the total length on the outside with hopper from left to right in inches . Trying to figure out if it will fit in a space that i have in mind .
Hey, that's a good question! It would be pretty cool if they dropped the price by $75 bucks or so if you showed up in person. That'd be one way to get people into the showroom. 😁

Iv used gas and lump coal smokers. I'm getting a recteq. Tired of fighting to keep the correct temp.
After a couple years how do you feel about this smoker? I'm thinking about buying one for myself.

Thx for the video. I’m on the fence too. You may have sealed the deal for me
Very good video. Just sold me on one. Recteg doesn't have a video that good.
Nice work. Thanks for your time and War Eagle!
You still have your 590? Still happy with the purchase?
Why the name change? Rectec vs Regteg?

Super close to pulling the trigger on one. How’s it held up over the years?

I live in Wetumpka and think you've sold me on the Recteq
420 means smoke time...get to cook'in!
Nice review. I have the 590 and the trailblazer and absolutely love them. I looked for a couple of months before settling on the recteq.
If it's been asked before, I apologize. But does the Rec-Tec have a door on the hopper to empty and change pellets? Thanks. Nice video!!

Whats the top temp, and how long does it take to get there?
Do you know what gauge the lid is? Excellent review
I do not know the gauge of steel on the lid. It is nice and heavy though.

Thank you! We are loving the 590! Brisket on as I type! I filmed it all on my iPhone.
Great video! What is the process for the burn in?
400 degrees for one hour to burn off any machine oils and contaminates. Then do a cook with a meat like chicken or bacon to coat with oils/grease.

I didnt think the insides was stainless steel on the 590 ??
Great review and content!
Thank you!
Nice review! Are the grills the same price if you buy at their HQ as they are online?
Hey, that's a good question! It would be pretty cool if they dropped the price by $75 bucks or so if you showed up in person. That'd be one way to get people into the showroom. 😁
Wondering the same thing. I live in Augusta, so I’ll find out soon enough.
Well are they cheaper there?
Where is the follow up video?
Great video.
