First Smoker

This is my first pellet smoker and love it, simple and easy to use, did ribs for the first round and they were moist and delicious, look forward to turkey breast for Thanksgiving. Smoke on!!

Ray G

Great so far!!

It’s been fantastic so far!! Holds temp well and gets to temp very fast! Very robust and well designed. There’s a couple things to be desired but with the build and material quality quickly make up for it!!

Guy M
