Ice Shack Baby Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I am in the marked for a pellet grill. I am sending one of my offset smokers to the cabin and want to purchase something that will be comparable to the smoker. I don't really have the budget to spend over $1000 for the new equipment. I guess the biggest concern that I have is having the unit create enough smoke flavor. I am guessing that smoke tubes would help out with that as well. I have a small gas grill for burgers and brats and an occasional chick breast and then another offset smoker that can cook a 200 lb pig. I am just trying fill the void in between. And...there is no such thing as having too many grills lol. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KEN W Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I have a Camp Chef......paid around $550 or so. It does a very good job. But as you say.....I use a smoke n tube to get enough smoke taste. My neighbor has a Traeger. Pretty much the same. Excellent for setting and forgetting. But it gets pretty spendy on pellets when you make ribs for 5 hours or brisket for 10 hours. So I basically use the smoker to get the smoke taste, but instead of leaving it in longer wrapped in tinfoil.....I finish it in the oven inside. Saves on buying a lot of pellets.
