    Anyone switch from pellet to kamado?

    I did end up getting a Primo XL and I love it. It's a better grill than anything I've owned before. I still have the Grilla Silverbac and use it for basic set and forget smokes like turkey last week. I've made great smoked things on the Primo as well. Did a brisket comparison and it was close...

    Anyone have a blaze?

    how much height it there above the top grate? Curious is the lower grate could be the coal section and the 18" grate could be where you stack the multi-tier system for increasing total smoking capacity. a 20" grill is fine for me, but for smoking I would need to have tiers to accomodate the...

    Anyone have a blaze?

    I think i only considered the blaze because it's on sale to basically equal the price of the Primo XL brand new. Plus a free rotisserie kit, which would be 255 for the primo. what heat do you struggle to get it to?

    Anyone have a blaze?

    you have any issue fitting a full packer brisket on there? 20 seems small but i drew the measurements on paper overlaying each other. 20 vs 25 wide. doesn't seem like a lot looking at it, and the 400 sq in is the same. i'm curious if you've been able to find a stacking system for it to expand...

    Anyone have a blaze?

    you can probably do wood wire in there if you really wanted to. I have a line on a used primo XL before they made the modern updates to the easy lift hinge and stuff. $400 and it's 11 hour round trip drive to get it...i think i'm gonna do it. $1600 for a new blaze and rotisserie vs $400 for a...

    Anyone have a blaze?

    I'm looking at used kamados in my area and for the past month have been sold on the Primo XL due to the oval size but Blaze has a promo right now with a free rotisserie kit and a price drop making it 1600 and primo brand new is 1619. now the size is dramatically different at 400 sq in vs 680 sq...

    Griddle Purchase

    Right now it's on the tank bc I wanted to see how it works with normal setup. I only have one gas line port until I build my counter and right now the hose goes to my pizza oven. Maybe when the tank runs out I'll test it with the hose

    Griddle Purchase

    I got the Member's Mark pro 5 burner griddle. Parents have Sams Club in another state and their membership had free shipping. Went together easily, seasoned up perfectly without serious temp differences on the surface and I used it twice this past weekend for philly cheesesteaks and tacos...

    Anyone switch from pellet to kamado?

    wouldn't a kamado basically be a kettle in that regard then? with the exception of better insulation and fuel usage

    Anyone switch from pellet to kamado?

    Y'all think I'm from space or something. The Weber was left free by the previous homeowner. The bottom air baffle/cleaner rusted out. It gets hot which is great for grilling and searing but...too hot. I'm talking outer kettle singing your arm as you hover over it. I mean it's fine...but if I see...

    Anyone switch from pellet to kamado?

    i have an amaze-n tray i used for cold smoking in the grilla. to be clear i'm not unhappy with my grilla. in fact it saddens me to possibly get rid of it. i just don't like the weber for grilling. i suppose i could also keep it but then i'd have a kamado, pellet smoker, and a gas griddle.

    Anyone switch from pellet to kamado?

    Situation: I have a Grilla Silverbac which I love, and a Weber kettle for hot fast grilling. Been thinking of getting a kamado to replace my weber as my grill and eventually I'll do side by side smokes to see if I like the smoking better than my pellet smoker. If i did, I'd sell the pellet and...

    Griddle Purchase

    i just looked at the Nexgrill at home depot today. The steel was rough, which I'm sure would condition well. I don't mind the 4 grease holes but again the collection is beneath the frame. The Even Embers one (which is $100 less than nexgrill) was surprisingly well built. The lid was beefier...

    Griddle Purchase

    The NExgrill Daytona looks nice with the 4 grease slots but again the removable tray is below the frame. worse case i can put the legs off and have it sit a few inches above

    Griddle Purchase

    I actually like the members mark from what I've seen. I'm in Washington and all the Sams clubs closed down a couple years ago here. I can't get it shipped either apparently. As for the CC if it was cheaper by about $200 i would just buy it and weld up a better grease trap. It's too pricey at...

    Griddle Purchase

    my concern would be availability to get parts. The only thing I'd have to worry about are knobs and burners. I also saw an Even Embers 5 burner griddle it's 20x40 and only 379 with a lid. But....nothing is that cheap without serious compromise in materials. If these were standard parts like...

    Griddle Purchase

    and i did see the weber but it seems pricey for what you get compared to others. i wish i could buy the pit boss with the old cast iron griddle

    Griddle Purchase

    I was planning on removing the actual griddle unit from the cart whichever i buy. it will sit on a sunken portion of the countertop so the cooking surface is even with the counter. That way i can have an enclosed cabinet underneath. It'll be hard plumbed to house propane so tanks don't factor in...

    Griddle Purchase

    Looking to get a gas griddle to add to the outdoor setup. I don't actually like the Blackstone because I will set this into an outdoor kitchen counter so the rear grease trap sounds awful. I've been looking at the Camp Chef FTG600 as older models could double as a grill (although I have a pellet...
