I did pay the full price for mine, I’ve had it for about 2 months and I love this grill! Usually use the power cord, I use it before work to make my lunch. Good review!! 🍻🍻🍻
I have had mine for over a year, there is a lodge flat skillet that fits perfectly. On top of the grate. I turned fan all the way on high and can get the lodge to 450+ and make great smash burgers with it. I found lump works best for hot Temps for grilling
Bought this at full price, it was mostly marketed as a grill. I got to say as a grill it was a big disappointment. You definitely need high-quality charcoal, briquettes, the cheap ones burn fast and leave a lot of ash. Biggest issue is it doesn’t allow much airflow. From what I can tell most gravity charcoal, smokers, have the air from the fan blowing Underneath the hot coals into the grill. This one tries to blow straight through the coals. I might try adding a small mod to address, better airflow maybe get some higher temps.
You are correct about the airflow, thus the reason I see lower than advertised temps as shown in this video. But I've found if I leave a channel between the coals for air to shoot straight into the grill, it works better. I mainly use mine for a portable smoker, it works very well for that.
It’s advertised to run 1.5 hrs on a full load. I don’t find that to be a negative. You know what you’re getting. Add wind and cheap briquettes - this shouldn’t surprise anyone.
Hey Andrew… Jumped over here for the review. Looks good. Your cook of the Rib Eye got hotter for the sear didn’t it..??? If you discover the searing secret, let us know.!
@@TheKelleysReviews That makes sense. Just like a Blacksmith's forge. The more air from the bellows (or fan..) the hotter the fire. Makes perfect sense...
