    What brands should I stay away from? What should I consider?

    It sounds like you're on the fence enough to regret it if you do. If you can part $650 now, I'd save for a couple months, do some mroe research, and get something you're more excited to get. I saved for a year for my OG Grilla from Grilla Grills. I did a lot of research before and even during my...

    What brands should I stay away from? What should I consider?

    I'm going to throw my 2 cents in and say Grilla. I just got my Grilla a few months back and love it! Great quality, customer service, and relatively affordable. I spent $970 on mine but I got a few extra accessories. If you're okay with $800, I'd save another month or two and add a little more...

    Grilla OG Ribs this weekend. Yum!

    I smoke them as well. Sometimes I wrap them separately and sometimes I just smoke em till they're done. Usually have a couple of small ribs I've cut off that are done and ready to snack on when I wrap the ribs after 3 hours :)

    Grilla OG Ribs this weekend. Yum!

    St. Louis (cut by me) spare ribs. 3 1/2 hours in the smoke and two wrapped. Perfect bite through and great taste. Light base coat of salt and pepper, then Malcom Reed's THE BBQ Rub. Wrapped with all the fixin's, butter, brown sugar, honey, and a tad bit of bbq sauce on the back. Hadn't got to...

    OG Grilla knocked another one out of the park!

    I never pull at temp. I've had briskets finish around 200 and others go way higher like 208. I just start probing around 200. Once it's probe tender I pull and rest. Chances are if it was a little tough (I've had those before) it needed to go higher. Don't worry about drying it out. If it's a...

    OG Grilla knocked another one out of the park!

    Looks darn good! I grilled some chicken a week ago at 375 and it worked really well. They were just tenders though for chicken salads.

    OG Grilla knocked another one out of the park!

    Hi Monkey. This was all at 250. Went on at 7, wrapped when it hit 158, and pulled at 204 which it hit at 4:30, so 9 1/2 hours roughly.

    OG Grilla knocked another one out of the park!

    13lb Prime brisket. Wrapped at 158 cause I needed it to move along and the bark had set really nicely. Wanted to take more pics but the fam wanted to eat lol. The pic of the slices looks a bit dry but rest assured, it was really moist and melt in your mouth! Probably the best brisket I've made...

    Finally got my GRILL!!!!! OG Grilla!

    So far it's awesome! I've done brisket, ribs, and a pork butt and all have been great! This weekend I'm having a big family get together and doing a 13lb brisket, 2 racks of spare ribs, and some brats. I did opt to pay $50 more for the PID controller because it's nice having two modes, and most...

    Diving into pellet grills

    The pro car is expensive. Most people don't need that so you can add everything else and it's still just $1008. Granted that pro cart is nice if you're on the move. Remember you're also getting the customer service of the company you side with. here's a story from a recent Silverbac owner. "For...

    Finally got my GRILL!!!!! OG Grilla!

    When I ordered my OG last month it look a little over a week to ship because they're so busy. Once it shipped I got it in two business days. They are SUPER nice over there so you can call or shoot them an email like I did and you'll hear back within minutes with an answer.

    Finally got my GRILL!!!!! OG Grilla!

    In internet slag it's "Original Gangster" Which is just slag for original. The My Grilla Grill Smoker Facebook page has coined the term OG for this grill as Original Grilla because it's their original design. You should check that page out if you have Facebook.
