Welcome from Wisconsin.

Wow, that is a nice looking rig. I know little about pellet grills so I am interested in who else has one of these units.

Congrats. I've got the Elite, which is essentially a larger version of the Pro. You will love it.

I think you will really like your new grill. I have an older advantage plus and I have "USED" it!

I use whatever pellets I can get the best price on, no need to pay 15-20 bills for a bag!!!

I use Lumberjack 100% hickory for everything.

Many brands of pellets are overpriced blends with a relatively small amount of flavor wood. Either go cheap (Pit Boss brand) or go with Lumberjack (100% flavor wood). Traeger, Louisiana Grills, etc are a rip.

A blend of woods aint always a bad thing, some times a change up is good imo

 

[JWFokker]

It's not that it's a blend, it's that they advertise hickory or maple oak cherry and it's mostly alder or something else cheap and bland. Traeger is actually being sued over their pellets right now.

Blends are watered down in my opinion. It's mostly bland maple. 100% hickory is the way to go.

Yes till you hear pellets falling. After using cheaper pellet smokers I was about to give up on them. Have had the pro for 1 1/2 years and love it. A true turn it on and forget about it. double wall construction and QUALITY controller holds temp even near zero ambient temps. Ran over 600lb of pellets through it with NO problems.
