    RIP " Hank Aaron"

    I saw Hank hit a homerun off Tom Seaver in Atlanta in 1969 when I was in 7th grade. Still one of my all-time best memories. May he rest in peace.

    New wood pellet grill made in USA

    Thanks! Food is yummy. Not as much smoke flavor as my (rusted out and now defunct) little Masterbuilt propane-and-wood-chunks unit delivered, but that was sometimes too much and hard to control. I might experiment with a pellet tube gizmo, but I'm in no hurry. Food is checking most of the boxes...

    New wood pellet grill made in USA

    Update after a few weeks of winter cooking on this little pellet smoker. 1. My favorite feature is the ash clean out door. Back in the day, I had a USA made Traeger, and I've also used my son-in-law's Silverbac. Both are a pain in the neck to clean out and keep running effeciently. Not this...

    Masterbuilt Pro MDS 230S Dual Fuel Smoker Caught Fire!

    I bought the trivet on Amazon. It's a Lodge item. Drilled and tapped 1/4-20 holes (if memory serves) and that's about it. Very sturdy. Went in a unit at my son's house when the rest of my unit rusted out.

    Masterbuilt Pro MDS 230S Dual Fuel Smoker Caught Fire!

    I got six good years out of that model after I did this mod:

    New wood pellet grill made in USA

    Thanks! Much appreciated! No worries. Never did, still haven't. I doubt anybody reading your first post would think that, but I'll take your word for it. I'm not a historian of pellet smokers, but didn't Louisiana come out with this before Yoder? And didn't Yoder "steal" its offset design...

    New wood pellet grill made in USA

    Most of the snow missed us, so I swept up what little fell on the patio . . . and now I think I'll do another cook! The clean-out door made ash removal from the first cook easy. A very nice feature.

    New wood pellet grill made in USA

    It took three of us, including my strong-as-a-horse ex-USMC special forces son. It's a tank.

    New wood pellet grill made in USA

    I don't know. I guess I've never thought about it. It's a pretty ordinary Samsung gas range. Nothing fancy. I just ran the number up to 550 on the key pad and up it went.

    New wood pellet grill made in USA

    Well, there's snow on the mountains now, but fortunately it didn't start before I got a chance to cook some tri-tip for California tacos. Yum. Seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cooked on the Outlaw at 225 for about an hour and a half, then in the oven at 550 for ten minutes.

    New wood pellet grill made in USA

    Here comes the snow, so I pulled out the cover and put it on even though the grill is still on the truck. Ha! Brand confusion!

    New wood pellet grill made in USA

    I like that too. I hope this igniter lasts longer than the ones on the USA-made Traeger I had years ago. Those were very unreliable.

    More detailed photos will follow after this snow blows through. It's getting chilly out.

    And I'm not asking you to. Not even suggesting it. I'm sure your Horizon is wonderful.

    OK, it's time, folks. Now, will somebody please get over here and help me lift this off my truck?

    Welded lid hinges. You can't adjust them, but then you never need to.

    New wood pellet grill made in USA

    I guess I haven't spent enough time on social media to think a "no offense" needs to begin sentences that express preferences. We used to say "I'm a Chevy man" without saying, "No offense, but I'm a Chevy man." These days you can't say you prefer Wendy's to McDonald's without needing to say, "No...

    Ash clean out should be a breeze.

    New wood pellet grill made in USA

    We put it in my truck with a forklift. Now I need to find three friends to help me get it to my patio.
