@jwamerica84 Год назад

Cheaper than a ceramic heat deflector, an 18" pizza pan works perfectly. I took a 14" water pan, set it on the lower grate and put the pizza pan on top of the water pan. Fits perfect under the main cooking grate. Super cheap KJ slow roller.

@JBen-ny5tp Год назад

Great video Rob. I got mine in yesterday. Did a first burn and season of the grate. One con that I had was the wheels or table. Kind of my fault, I built it inside and due to not having all castors and/or the tables not folding, I had to basically lift it up and walk it though the door. I enjoy the doing fire control as well, so I will most likely be buying the ashpan from the regular akorn (part# 900025), as well as the flat stone. Looking forward to all the wonderful food this grill is gonna turn out for me.

@RobsBackyardBBQ Год назад

Haha - I hope you videod that :) But, now that it's outside, you prob appreciate the bigger wheels up front lol. Ah, nice - thanks for the part # of the ash pan - i saw they had different colors also? That'll prob help others. Yeah man you're gonna love it!

@godjen99 Год назад

I got one a while back, actually seen one of your videos and it helped me decide to get one. Damn shame I paid full price though😆 I agree though, I'm a fan of mine, use it at least 2 times a week and have done a lot on it. I've not had the top vent get stuck on me at all (yet), but the tip for cleaning is great, thanks! The biggest (and only) con I have is the app. While it works if I use Bluetooth, it can't hold the WiFi signal at all, which means I need to be in particular rooms in the house for it to work. Checking the reviews on the Apple store, everyone seems to have the same exact issue. I really hope they can fix that up. Great review Rob, thanks!

@RobsBackyardBBQ Год назад

Hey Terry, thanks for watching! The only issue i've had with the app was having both the auto-kamado and the gravity connected at the same time, though, I haven't reached out to support about it at all lol.

@Nathan-wn5mc Год назад

Thanks for the update. I just got mine today and I agree on each con so far aside from the set and go lol. I may feel the same soon but we'll see. They need to work on a way to charge the digital gauge and fan instead of needing to keep it plugged in.

Also I've been thinking about getting a pizza oven. I kinda feel like this thing would give me as good a pizza with constantly having to turn it plus give me all the perks of a kamado?

@jasonpettis4691 Год назад

Very thorough well done review. I do have a question. How good of a job does it do of bringing the temp down if you want to change mid cook from lets say 350 down to 250? I'm sure it will take a little time, but hoping not more than 15 minutes or so.

@NAdamO-xt4ht Год назад

@jwamerica84 Год назад

To loosen the top vent run the grill up to 600F. Take the cast iron grate out if you care about losing the seasoning.

@beerweather1566 Год назад

Thanks for watching! Actually I think here it's just hanging off the back, wrapped around the cord-wrapper. I normally have it sitting on a piece of wood on the ground hiding under the lowest shelf. Protected from the rain and any water that may be coming through under the grill. When not in use though, I'll have the cover on it.

@nikbadshah 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for sharing your experience. I am looking into getting this grill as my 1st charcoal smoker/grill. So while the auto set and forget helps, but i agree with the last Con, it does take the fun away......However, if you buy that 2nd ash tray with manual lever..can you just not switch it and the grill becomes similar to your manual traditional model??

@jamesmaxwell1222 Год назад

A question, well . . . more like a concern. I recently bought the Char Griller Auto Kamado and attempted to season it at 350 degrees. I used a chimney as a "measuring cup," DID NOT prelight or prestart the coals. I started the Kingsford blue bag briquettes with two all-natural firestarters. I set the temp at 350 and it went WAY over, by like one hundred degrees. How do I control the temp, especially if I want to smoke a brisket, low and slow around 250 degrees?

@RobsBackyardBBQ Год назад

Hey James, thanks for watching. Here's what i'll normally do when I'm planning a low-and-slow cook.. ~250ish .. - dump some charcoal in (i use lump, but shoudn't matter) - dig down a big in the center, drop in a firestarter, light it and place some coals over it - give it max 5 minutes, then open the vents and close the lid. Longer than this might get the fire too hot and you'll be fighting to get it lower - when you choose temp on the display and it tells you 'd-1' or 'd-2', put it just under the line so it's actually .75 or 1.75. - if it's looking like it's going to overshoot, close the top vent a little more

@RickPoch-mf8jj Год назад

@mpkelley20 3 месяца назад

After a year plus, how are you still liking this? My pellet grill is dead and I want something charcoal based and want the set and forget feature. I like watching the grill do the work for me. The gravity ones seem to suck fuel like my Jeep so not a great option. This grill seems great other than the mountain of issues people have with the controller dying. Bu I assume that is warranty and maybe something they have addressed with the manufacturer by now. I hope. So thoughts? Do you use it a lot or are you back to the more manual ones?

@RobsBackyardBBQ 3 месяца назад

I still use it all the time and would recommend it. I know it was on sale recently for $350ish at home depot, but not sure if the sale is still going on. The only gripe I have is the top vent gets sticky with creosote. I use a propane torch to light the charcoal anyway, so I just heat up the inside of the vent with it when i'm lighting the akorn and it operates smoothly.

@mpkelley20 3 месяца назад

@@RobsBackyardBBQ Thank you! Yes Lowes has them for that price which I think is the normal price now. Crazy low for such a grill.

I use the Akorn 80% of the time at least, maybe more. 980 is a charcoal EATER, and that's even in the Texas summer!

Hey there - Yes, generally I'll keep them covered when I'm not using them. The first one I had a few years back I never covered and the section between the body and ash pan started rusting (since the ash pan would fill with water, etc.. sometimes). Totally worth $35 to get a cover.

@stevew9916 Год назад

Con: customer support. After only 5 weeks of moderate use, I get the erp error code (heat sensor) as soon as I power up. Did all the troubleshooting steps as provided in the manual but the problem persisted. Emailed customer support and was sent the same info that was in the manual from some bot.. even though I detailed that I did all of those steps. No way to contact a real person. Hosting a bbq in a little over a week and I have no confidence the issue will be resolved...I guess we'll all stand around looking at the non-functioning char-griller. Con: the app does not have audible alarms just the sound of a notification on your phone. Also triggers way too often as it tends to drop and reconnect frequently.

Hey there. If i'm cooking between 200-250 instead of putting the damper at 1, i'll usually put it a little bit less and it seems to stick pretty well to the temps i'm shooting for.

Believe it or not, you can actually use a electric grill without electricity. The electricity is basically for the digital display. But you still use charcoal or wood.
