FINALLY did it!

[testar77]

After finally growing tired of trying to get my GMG JB to be a decent grill and spending months deciding....... I pulled the trigger today and bought myself a Yoder! Can't wait to get to smoking again. I also ordered a couple of Thermopro t20's

Is that the YS640?  Certainly looks impressive.  What specifically was wrong or just finicky with the Green Mountain?  I have a co-worker looking at getting a pellet grill and was considering Traeger or Green Mountain.  I've got no experience with pellet grills so it would be interesting to be able to steer him here to get some good pros and cons.

Grats on the Yoder!

Yes that is the 640. The biggest problem I had with the GMG was soot....... lots of soot. Worked with customer service over the course of a year trying to get it resolved and finally gave up. There was more temperature variation throughout the grill surface than I liked but I could have worked with that. The soot I could not. IMO if it's something your buddy will use a lot tell him to buy the best he can afford.

Soot is bad eats.  Thanks for explaining. Buying the best one can afford is always good advice.

Congrats, you will not regret it. I have my YS640 now for 3 years and love it.

I am loving it so far. Did stuffed pork loin last night and BB ribs tonight
