Pellet Pro informed me that they now do have a method for hanging sausages in their Vertical cabinet smoker. So if you're interested in that, the link is below. smokedaddyinc.com/product/v-sticks-for-hanging-sausage-in-the-vertical-smoker/
Great review video! I've had the mammoth for about 2 weeks now. I have several other grilla grills smokers and this thing is built like a beast. My first smoke was a brisket and ran smooth for 10 hours straight at 250 degrees. My meater 2 plus was +/-5-10 degrees in pro mode. Very impressed with how consistent the temps were for a first cook on it. From top to bottom it seemed to be about 10 degrees hotter with the rack closest to fire port and about 10 degrees cooler at the top. Pros: excellent heat retention with the double wall insulation, stainless steel internals, water pan is huge and heavy duty, extra area for smoking wood or chips, large hopper. Cons: the wheels are not great and very similar to the others in the review. Definitely not going to be able to move through grass and hard to get over a small lip in my garage. Grilla has come out with upgrades on wheels before so that could be a future add. The fire pot deflector for smoking wood. I'm still playing around with this but with chunks and chips it is hard to get them to smolder unless it is at 300 degrees or higher. I've tried a couple different methods such as taking a torch to them to give it a head start and that seems to work. I've heard of this being an issue with camp chefs door as well. Overall, I am very impressed with the Mammoth. It is definitely built to last and up to grilla quality. I think the price is fair and actually cheaper than I anticipated. I don't think anyone would be disappointed with this smoker. I definitely would recommend the mammoth.
@@webersbbq I got it because it was bigger but yet less expensive than the camp chef I wanted first. You never know when you’re going to be needing the extra space 🤔
I had a silverback and my mammoth will be delivered this friday and something else to consider with the double wall is in the cold i smoked in zero degrees and my silverback retained heat excellent it used a little more pellets but it worked great in low temperatures
I know they made a special one for the Pit Boss barrel style horizontal pellet grills. It makes sense that the regular might fit pit boss verticals. Thanks for bringing this up :-)
Big fan of the pellet pro simply for the heavy D stick burning cabability and the cold smoke generator that sets it appart from other pellet smokers in terms of achieving max smoke flavor
I wish more brands had done a vertical pellet dedicated for low and slow or at least up to 450. A lot of consumers already have a gas or charcoal grill for searing.
Have you checked into Outlaw Smokers out of Idaho? They have a vert that is consumer size and commercial size. I own the bigger one and can vouch for it as a great smoker for the price. I have the OL3000
I think your review was very detailed and objective. You might be surprised if you listened to your video and kept a paper tally on how many times you used “you know”. Just a practical suggestion to kick up your presentation another notch.
I don’t see why a person couldn’t use the heavy D heat deflector with the mammoth and have the ability to add splits after they are consumed. Could possibly be the best of both worlds.
It doesn't really matter because these are never ever ever ever ever in stock. I think it's important to note that Grilla sold out to American Outdoor Brands in late 2022.
So I don't believe what you just said to be a 100%. I own a very thick pellet smoker and I could coast that thing at 140 messing with the controller a little bit. I don't think the thickness of the smoker matters when it comes to these pellet smokers and how low they will go. It's all about the controller
You may be able to make your smoker run at 140, but I think the important thing, and the reason why pellet smokers have a lower limit, is that you need a certain amount of heat to keep a fire going. If you try to go too low, the fire will go out and a whole bunch of pellets will pile up. If your smoker has poorer heat retention, a hotter fire will still result in a lower chamber temp than the same fire in a smoker with better heat retention. I hope that clears some of that up.
The thickness matters if you live in cold weather climate. You don't want it running all the time. I've had experience with lined and unlined pellet smokers. A big difference.

A lot of research was done in preparation of this video... great job
Thank you for reviewing!!

This is amazing!
Another great video. Wish you had more subscribers you do great work.
Thanks
Great break down ! I have the Mammoth and did a review recently.
How do you like it? I just purchased mine, just waiting for it to be deliver.
@@bigboricua4573 overall it works great. It’s too big for what I needed. So soon I will be selling it.

Thanks for the review. I believe you can use the Heavy D Stick Diffuser for the PitBoss as well.

Curious how the hopper clean out is? How easy is it to swap pellets?

I look at their smokers in this video and they definitely seem solid

@@SmokeMasterD oh ok. They have a vertical smoker also
Is there a pellet clean out door on the mammoth? I may have missed it.
I didn't mention it in the video, but their website says it has a "Newly designed easy clean hopper pellet dump."

Thanks. I try to edit some of them out but it's definitely a weakness of mine. Thanks for watching

If you give it a try, tell us how it went 🙂👍
It doesn't really matter because these are never ever ever ever ever in stock. I think it's important to note that Grilla sold out to American Outdoor Brands in late 2022.
I suspect they will be available soon as they removed the "sale" price of $799 and just have the original price of $999 on their website.

@@SmokeMasterD definitely the reason why they keep the min temp at 170+ . Thanks

Guess youve never lived in alaska or any place cold,thicker is better,its called insulation.
