U bless to have a wife that love you dearly
Can't wait to see the cook!
My wife just bought me one for my birthday too!!! Sent me to lowes to pick up patio furniture and it actually ended up being this bad boy!!!
Happy Birthday!! Great present
Happy B-day gift! What a beauty! I’m sure it was worth waiting for. Can’t wait to see it in action! TFS, BB!
Alert!! Lowes has these on clearance right now for $260 down from $599. In store only. There was only 2 at my store so you better act fast if you want it. They also have the Pit Boss Pro for $174. Early Christmas present for myself. Wife didn’t flip since the price was too good to pass. 🤙
Thanks for this. I was on the fence and this pushed me to the chargrilled over the master built. It will be my birthday present too.
Yessir!! I’m late to the gravity series cookers. But just picked up the 980 and am
Super pumped to try it out. Thanks for the videos! Looking forward to posting some myself. Cheers!!
I wanted to get this for my dad for his birthday since it looks to be pretty good quality but he wanted to masterbuilt vertical charcoal smoker. Wish I was your neighbor to smell all the goodness. 😅
You'll really like this grill, as for the rear vent i thing there is a spacer on the top mount. cant wait to see your cooks on this grill. I really enjoy mine.
Interested to hear what the flavor is like. I like the concept. Enjoy Sir!
That 980 is bad ass. I love mine!
Thank for the video 😊
Thanks for the video. The 1st time I used the grill I added a few pieces of wood in the ash tray as the directions stated. For the 2nd time, I added a few pieces of wood in the ash tray but this time the silicone cover leading to the fan burned. This caused the digital display to show "Open." By this time, I had a brisket on the grill. Because the grill was malfunctioning, I lost a $57 brisket. I called Char Griller for guidance. After buying the grill at Lowe's and having them assemble it, I'm pissed that Char Griller would NOT reimburse me for the brisket. If I had been using the grill multiple times before this malfunction, I would not think of asking them for a refund. This was the 2nd cook in 2 weeks! Char Griller is going to send me the parts and now I have to make the repair instead of Lowe's which is NOT my thing.
Nov 21, 2021 Update
Do NOT buy your grill directly from Char Griller! Buy it from Lowe's or another store that wants to satisfy their customers. If your grill malfunctions, simply return it to the retail outlets within the return policy dates and they will exchange it for a new one. Do NOT follow Char Griller's manual guidance to contact them instead of the store you bought it!!! After researching complaints against Char Griller, it seems everything boils down to "Operator Error." The so called "warranty" is worthless. They make you pay for the parts to repair the grill.
Is having trouble with my controller is that a problem keep getting an error message
Dude! My fiancé got this for me as an early Valentines Day gift. She must have seen me watching your videos and got the idea from there. lol
That is awesome! Hope you like it!!! I love mine!
Is the grill still working.? Internet says issues after a while, less than a year.... What is your opinion.?
You are going to be very happy with this grill I love mine
I'm late to this video but I caught your comparison to the pellet grill to the charcoal grill. I wish this Grill had a better way of an lighting the charcoal
Hit the like for an awesome wife! This isn't the first cooker she has bought us I mean you lol.
Happy early Birthday brother... that smoker bad to the bone......
I Just Purchased One. Why Does SMOKE Come Out Of The Charcoal Fill Hole??? When Closed???
I purchased Lump charcoals. But can’t figure out how to get the fire going
So do you really like your Gravity fed I currently have an 850 pit boss pellet and to what you said Im not getting that full wood taste from my smoker. How long have you had it
That is an interesting grill. I am interested in seeing how it works for you!!
Me too!
On the Facebook groups they say not to put wood chunks in the ash pan as it can burn that fan flap and potentially kill the fan. Something to look into bud. Can’t wait till mine comes in
Thanks, I'll check that out., appreciate the info.
I have a pit boss 700 i got for Christmas
Did you use the same bag of charcoal to burn and season?
How did the cook turn out ?
Vent shouldn’t be tight. Was the zip tie still attached when you built it. Maybe broke off and is in there
dude I feel if I ask for another grill for my bday, Christmas, Father's Day... my wife would trip out 🤣
Haha I just asked mine , and she was like hell no unless you get rid of one of your rec tecs , 🙄
@@jamesu223 yup that's exactly what I'm facing as we speak lmao. been tryna warm her up for about 2 months now😂
@@dank9288639 I just got that bfg 2500 she so didn't like me spending money on a monster like that haha .
@@jamesu223 hahaha broooo, I'd be pissed at you too for spendin that kinda coin 😂
get rid of the RT700 then get the 980 lmao
I am lucky, this is the third grill she has bought me.... she says I am hard to buy presents for so if she gets something BBQ related, she knows she hit a home run......LOL
Definitely want to see the char griller vs req teq
Oh man me too , I was just thinking about this 1 year laye haha I have multiple 1st gen req tecs the red ones and they still going strong for as old as they are.
Why this grill over the MASTERBUILT?
Keep me posted on your thoughts
Will do....
Looking forward to a new chapter in the BBBQ novel with your Char-griller. Your wife must like you a little bit...... or is it your cooking?
LOL, probably a little bit of both
Lid seems to leak alot.
Yea, I would say the gasket around the door is not as sealed as it should be. A lot of guys put a smoke gasket around it as a mod to keep the smoke from escaping. I may do that as well.
why is the digital screen going crazy?
When ever I record a video, sometimes the digital display look like that. The flicker is caused by a difference in the scanning frequency between the digital display and the video camera. There is nothing wrong with the digital display, it just looks that way depending on the setting on my camera.
should always lite grill open door
Should it be smoking from the top of the gravity chute?
Yea, I would say the gasket around the door is not as sealed as it should be. A lot of guys put a smoke gasket around it as a mod to keep the smoke from escaping. I may do that as well.
I would love to have one but my wife would kill me if I buy another grill lol 😂
😀 If it wasn't for my UA-cam channel, my wife would be the same way,,,,LOL
Lucky Man...
Shut down. Just turn it off??
You didn't check your electrical before you fired it up?? Noob!!! 🤣😂🤣 j/k great video!!
Love this grill/smoker. Got one a month ago and its awesome. One thing learned was to seal it up a bit more. Check out Tom Tom Horsman's video on how he sealed it up. ua-cam.com/video/GwLNu2eUR54/v-deo.html
