Green mountain grill?

Anybody here running a GMG? Just wondering if it lives up to the hype

You can't go wrong with a pellet grill. I run a Traeger pellet grill but have used a buddy of mines Green Mountain grill more than a few times. Both deliver excellent results.

When grilling say chicken breast, not looking for smoking chicken, but just grilling, does it get a smokey flavor in it?

At higher grilling temps you'll still get some of the smoke flavor. It isn't overbearing if you throw a bunch of heat at what you are grilling but you can back it off and add the smoke flavor if you want. No flare ups and no dried out chicken or anything else. I've had mine since '06 and use it all year. Pizza, burgers, steak, pork roasts, ribs, chicken, etc.. All turn out excellent. From what I've seen the Green Mountain can run hotter than my Traeger for the most part but both can back down and smoke just fine. The manufacturers will tell you to only use their brand of pellets but I've been burning off brand pellets (that are half the price) for a few years and haven't had any problems. The only other grill I'd consider is a Big Green Egg but for now I'm sticking with a pellet grill.
