    Kamado style grill preferences?

    yes we have friends who have made ribs on a traeger and they were very good. i'm thinking i'll get the CC, seems a bit more convenient for day to day - and then reset the wheel of funds and see about a kamado in the future.

    Kamado style grill preferences?

    I'm in same boat so I can appreciate this thread. i've only got an old offset cheapo smoker i had someone give me, and i grill on the firebox - which works, but isn't ideal. I've been struggling with either buying a pellet smoker/grill - specifically the CampChef SG 24 with searbox, or going...

    PID controller or Non PID controller

    How do you like your Pellet Pro? i don't see too many reviews on that brand, although they look to be upper middle tiered pellet grills?

    Traeger pro 34 or Camp Chef SGX 36?

    do you have one with the slide and grill? interested to hear how that works for basic steak grilling/searing.

    Traeger pro 34 or Camp Chef SGX 36?

    yeah i'm not focused on searing, but for what the decent pellet grills cost i'd like to be able to - even if i have to get grill grates to heat up for it, i'm fine with that, but i don't want to have a propane attachment. so your traeger cooks well, but you don't use it for high temps yes?
