No BGE or Primo or any other ceramic, or any other charcoal pit needs to be recommended.

Need some help, Christmas present was a new BBQ pit. Have a Members something or other from Sams, its huge and way to big for anything we do anymore.

Ive been looking at the Weber Genesis over at Lowes and Home Depot, but cant pull the trigger because of their overall size. Im trying to get my grill out of the garage and onto the patio so I can reclaim some room in the garage.

So, I think Ive got it narrowed down to these 2 grills:
Smokin Cajun

and

Phoenix Grills

They both look nice, I like that there are parts I can order for both. I dont know if Im sold on the burner system of the smokin cajun though. I guess I could take a drive up there when I go up to Shreveport/Monroe for work.

Looking at the specs on those 2, it seems like they are both copying Holland Grill's flame deflector style. Not sure if you looked at Holland's lineup, but they have perfected the no flare up style gas grills. They have several models from basic grills to searing/infrared models.

Either one of the 2 you posted will be great, but I think Holland is worth taking a look at if you haven't checked them out.

Just out of curiosity since I use charcoal but why or how does a $900 propane grill cook better than a $200 propane grill?

I've got a Phoenix grill from when they made an all stainless with stainless welded on end caps...going on 10+ years old...


Love it!

Holland Grille makes one comparable...no all stainless though...

I've had the pleasure of cooking on the smoking Cajun many times. It performs as advertised. Zero issues....extensive use for several years. However.......once it seasons, pretty much everything tastes like chicken. Steak...chicken. Sausage...chicken. Pork....chicken. Burgers...chicken.

On the plus side, it does make great chicken.
