It actually gives me an oven for my patio, which is what I've always wanted. Thank you so much for your dedicated time spent to review dozens of smokers and cookers.

Great Job... I love the nerdy scientific approach and impartiality. After a 70mph gusts maneuvered my ceramic vision grill over and down 15 steps from my deck to my patio this week... I'm suddenly in the market for a new grill. The Vision Grill/smoker was nice, it did a decent job smoking but like all multi use items, it didn't necessarily do it great. So... sad about the investment lost but happy I can now justify buying a pellet smoker. Anyway, thanks for the recommendations... I've got a lot more research to do and this video was a great start!

Thanks for you information. I did a lot of research before buying mine and it is important to buy one that fits your needs. All to often people buy the biggest and the best and never use them for all the features and end up wasting lot of money. I purchased my smoker from Walmart and it was the Atlas model which is larger than the Commodore model. It had everything I needed for what I consider a budget smoker. I liked the fact of the Wi-Fi and I can monitor it and make adjustment from my phone inside my house. As far a a small gap in the lid I took care of that with gasket rope and it sealed the lid off. I use it on my gas grill as well and it does the job. But the bottom line is just what he said, find the one that fits your needs and you'll be a happy smoker. Good luck and Happy Smoking.

Wow, a review from someone who actually used the grills (for multiple cooks and even cleaned them), instead of simply reading the vendor's description. Very informative, clearly presented. One question, what about the aux cooking shelves? Do they cook the same as the main grate, or are the vendors just padding their cooking area numbers? I would love to have seen some biscuits on those shelves.

A great video to compare the different brands. I did base some of my decision on buying a Z Grill (the same model that you had in the video) off your input. I am a big fan of the consistent even heat distribution of the Z Grill and the precise temp control the unit does. It is very easy to move and makes it a snap to pull out of the garage to cook on. I got mine on sale at Menards at their Spring event for $300! An awesome buy for a great grill. Thanks for your input.

3 years ago I wanted and received a pellet grill for my birthday that is in August. I had done a lot of research and decided that the Pit Boss had the best features for the money. My wife, son and I got in my truck and went to Walmart that sold a smaller model for around 350.00. When we arrived they only had 3 grills left and they were on clearance for 275.00. They were the Pit Boss Austin XL. 1000sq inches of space. Imagine my surprise when I realized I was getting a super sized grill for less than what I was willing to pay for a smaller grill. Lesson learned. Walmart puts the summer grills on clearance to make room for the holiday stock. Keep your eyes open for the deals. Over the past 3 years I have made some of the best barbecue. I did pulled pork recently and our guests said it was the best pulled pork they have ever had.

I was fortunate enough to snag a expert grill commodore for 199$ at my local walmart, thats the only reason I went with it. I plan on getting a recteq one day but before spending all that money I wanted a cheap pellet grill that will last me enough to practice with before getting a nice pellet grill. I smoked a 10lb pork shoulder on it for the first time and first time using a pellet grill and I got some really good compliments for family that I had over. If this is your first pellet grill I would highly recommend starting on this one for the price if you can get it that low.

I bought a Pit Boss Larado 1000 that is $574. It has Bluetooth, WiFi, and an electronic controller. Also has a light on the inside, and an ash dump tray. This grill is a BIG upgrade from that Pit Boss 850 that you demonstrated, and it still under $600. I'm not down playing the 850, I'm just saying what I think about the Larado to me is a better deal.

Most pellet grills need some modifications done to them. Like for example; the air gap between the door and the grill need a gasket. Bigger wheels for rolling over grass, if needed. Being able to control the or smokestack or a vent for more a smoke taste. Diffusers for the burn pot allow more even baking.

As a previous Qstoves+ user, I must say, switching to Asmoke has been a game-changer. The precision of the digital controller in maintaining the cooking temperature is just incredible. It gives me so much more control over the grilling process. Also, the portability and the battery life are far superior, allowing me to take it on all our family outings. The ASCA technology and FlameTech patent really take the cooking result to the next level. Moreover, the convenience of remote temperature adjustment and food temperature monitoring from the app is just a dream come true. I also love the wide range of flavors the wood pellets offer, it really enhances the taste and aroma of the food being cooked. Asmoke has truly revolutionized the way we do cookouts. Highly recommend to all grilling enthusiasts! #Asmoke

Loved the comparison. I bought my first one last Thanksgiving. I had no clue what to buy nor did I really know how they worked. Everything you covered was everything going through my head for months prior to purchase. Also not knowing what size to purchase. I live in a condo with VERY LIMITED BALCONY SPACE. After a bit of research Z-Grill was my choice. Still not knowing which one - Z-Grill made up my mind for me; they were offering what they called "The Mystery Box" In this box - it would contain 1 of 5 units which were new for 2021. Varied in size and feature. I ended up with the exact unit you used in this video. Almost covers a third of my balcony. I love it and still learning. One feature my unit allows me to do as well - The vent cap is adjustable to either trap more heat or allow to escape.

As a previous Qstoves+ user, I must say the switch to Asmoke has been a game-changer for my outdoor cooking experiences! The precise temperature control is a major upgrade, and the ASCA™ technology ensures efficient, consistent cooking every time. Plus, the convenience of being battery-powered and portable means I can grill anywhere, anytime. But my favorite part has to be the unique smoky flavor imparted by the wood pellets - it truly enhances the taste of the food. The Asmoke Essential has truly revolutionized my grilling game, all while being easy to clean and environmentally friendly too.

Z Grills Typhon 706 (ZPG-7002F) currently on clearance at Menards for $336.96 with an additional 11% rebate ($299.89 after rebate). This is not exactly the model tested but is similar.

I have 2 1000 ci pit bosses and 1 Cuisinart woodcreek and I like them better than the others I have had. The woodcreek is great for burgers and such but the pb1000t2 is my favorite to smoke on. It is truly an easy bake system the other pit boss kind of sucks it has the drawer grease catch that fills with water and grease. My only real complaint about the pit bosses is the handle on the door is a bit to high up and you get a grease stripe on your wrist when closing it. If it curved down just 2 or 3 inches it would be nice. All three jam up with pellets if it's humid or rains when not using them even under cover.

The expert grill Atlas would have fit in the price mark and provides a ton more surface area. Great comparison tho!!

Im new to smoking. Electric smokers dont produce smoke rings so is it safe to assume pellet grills produces smoke rings? Is it easy to use like Electric smokers?

Not sure if Coleman pellet grills are sold in the US but its superior in every way to these 600 dollar grills but also the top of the line Traeger and Pit boss grills, but talk is cheap, for under 700(On Sale), The Coleman cookout grill is heavier than all the others it has 2 meat probes, It has a full double wall and insulated firebox, Bigger hopper, PID electronics, Heavy duty ceramic coated cast iron grates bottom-mid-top, And of course the hopper clean out port near the bottom of hopper along with the standard but well designed grease tray underneath. It also has good wheels and a built in side tray, and it burns at 180 to 500 degrees. I did alot of research and looked at several makes and models and this Coleman was unmatched specwise And thats why I purchased the Coleman cookout. I have had one for a few months and am enjoying cooking on it.

How long will the pellets last at 225F? What temp was the pork butt cooked at

I would have liked to have seen more name brand grills. I haven’t even heard of most of these.

Why was the Camp Chef Pursuit 20 not considered in this test? It's still $499.00. I've had mine for over a year and worked it unmercifully, and it's never let me down. The smoke and temp controls are exceptional, it has a decent-sized pellet hopper, the baffle over the burning pellets moves out of the way if you want to sear, and the removeable ash cup makes dumping the ashes a breeze.
