have an old Traeger that was gifted. Gonna buy a new one this weekend. I told myself I wanna send $600 max,but that Rec Tec Stampede RT-590($899) is calling my name. You guys are the best so point me in right direction I'm open to other brands but I want quality. TIA

I have the Pitts & Spitts Maverick and highly recommend it, it's more than $900 new though so I don't know if you're wanting to stay under the stampede price.

I looked at the Stampede but wanted some thicker gauge steel that was going to last longer.

Unless you go super high end, I'd pick up the Louisiana Grills vertical pellet smoker you can pick up at Costco for ~$450. I prefer it to the Rec Tec in just about every way. More capacity, more pellet capacity, etc...

I plan on using this guy until it craps out and then maybe investing in a Memphis

I have a Camp Chef DLX that I bought for $399 and I love it so far. Been having it for a few months now

I want to buy the sear box or the sidekick for it soon

Can’t go wrong with Rec Tec, they’re built like tanks. I have the 340 and my only regret is not splurging for the 590. FYI, keep your gasser or charcoal grill for hot n fast cooks.

Just bought an RT 590 two weeks ago. Looked hard at the GMG Daniel Boone, and I don’t regret spending the extra $200-300 for the Rec Tec over the GMG. Great grill so far.

Get the RecTec. That’s the pellet grill I have. It’s extremely well built.

I think I've decided to get the Camp Chef Woodwind 36 here in a week or two when my work bonus comes in.

Any good or negative feedback from the board on that one?
