    Rec Tec RT-700 Bull. Large temp fluctuations

    So my buddy just bought a used RT-700 Bull with a cold smoker box and when we plugged it in today it was acting a little strange. I set the temp to 225° and everything looked good. It hit 225° and the fan was cycling. Next thing I know the temp dropped quickly to roughly 150° and then rose...

    Is the Yoder YS640 worth $750 more than the RecTec Stampede?

    The comp cart would have certainly fixed the stability issue with the RecTec

    (Prospective) Newbie Pellet question

    I'm partial to the RecTec. Great grill. Great customer service. Best warranty in the business by far.

    Z grills anyone know anything

    Heard mixed reviews and also heard they tried to back out of one of their previous rebate programs. It's crazy how they literally try and "give away" their grills constantly. Makes me wonder why they have to have all these rebate programs to get people to buy them...

    I'll try and take a video of the whole thing. I mean there's smoke but it's not like people are choking on it or it's so dense you think the house is on fire.

    Just ordered a Rec Tec RT-700

    Same here. I would've never had the patience to cook a pork butt for 19 hours in my electric smoker. The RecTec made it simple!

    Best pellet grill for the buck???

    Check out RecTec. I upgraded from a MES30 as well and the RecTec is incredible. Has features that you won't find on other grills until you get into the $2500-$3000 range and depending on the size you can get them for as low as like $600. They have a fantastic warranty and the customer service...

    I can take a video and post a link to it for how much smoke mine makes on the extreme smoke setting. It's not that bad. i live in a townhouse and have it on my deck.

    Super new to the party - some questions about Pellet Grills

    I recently came from an electric smoker. i went with a RecTec and i absolutely love it! It's night and day. The customer service is top notch and the warranty is the best that i could find.
