    Stuffed sandwich

    Oh man, I've always been a sandwich/sub guy and that looks fantastic! Pretty sure Ima have to toss something like that on the Silverbac soon. And warm up some Dei Fratelli or Star Cross Pizza sauce to dip it in!

    Help needed for a newbie!

    I'm not familiar with that particular smoker, or electric, but on a stick burner it sounds like it could be starved for air. Start with them wide open, then start closing the bottom a little once going to until you get the right air flow. My top vent is always wide open unless there is a wind or...

    Double Briskets on the Silverbac

    Packer time for family Christmas get together yesterday. Two full packers, before trim, 17.5 and 16.5 lbs. Angus Choice from Sam's Club. Cook was 230 over about an 80/20 blend of Lumberjack Mesquite Blend and Hickory. Trimmed and seasoned Friday afternoon, placed on the Silverbac at 9pm...

    I need help with a brisket

    I agree, apple is too light for beef unless mixed with a harder wood. A year back I parked my MB Dual Fuel that was used to burn sticks and lump and bought a Grilla Silverbac, the smoke flavor is lighter but still good and I've now switched to hickory or mesquite pellets and mix in some comp or...

    New to me, free Masterbuilt

    Love my MB Dual Fuel, made many a great meal on it. I almost always burned sticks, chunks, and lump or a combination of them and would use the gas to light them, then shut it off. In the winter (it gets cold here in Michigan) I more than a few times used the gas on its lowest setting (including...

    Charbroil Commercial Died

    Congrats on 15 years out of a Charbroil! That is a feat in itself, I'd say that is beyond a lifetime for them and most grills on the market.

    Diving into pellet grills

    No doubt Camp Chef makes a good product and has good service, but after being on the fence and looking at a couple of their units I rolled the dice on the Grilla Silverbac. I've been using up here in Michigan since December, I'm not going to knock Camp Chef but I am comfortable that the...

    Diving into pellet grills

    Congrats on the Silverbac and welcome to the jungle. Love my SB, I was about to buy another grill when I stumbled on Grilla, after checking them out I knew it was what I wanted. The build quality and customer service are awesome. They are the next big thing.

    Opinions on Pellet grills

    How exactly was Grilla losing customers? Curious where you get that information from? They only sell direct and are selling them about as fast as they can get them out the door. No Costco, no Cabela's, etc.

    Opinions on Pellet grills

    Love and still have my MB vertical dual fuel although I tended to burn sticks and/or lump; made some great food in that thing. Biggest reason I migrated to pellets was to get away from babysitting all day.

    Opinions on Pellet grills

    I agree, this is making waaaaay too much out of nothing. This is a hobby I, like most here, enjoy; this thread is like the on and on club about somethign that is preference. The guy is just picking and would be further ahead getting the grill he likes and moving onto the next topic.

    Opinions on Pellet grills

    Why not? Companies do that all the time. Why would Ford promote a Mustang and an F150? In reality they are both just modes of transportation, right? Or why promote a base model XL over a Platinum model? They are both just trucks in reality, right? Or, it could be that they are saying that they...
