re: Pellet Grill recommendation

Folks are claiming you can only smoke for 8 hours before needing to add more charcoal. I'm saying I've smoked for 8 hours and still had half of the gravity box full of charcoal. Meaning I could have kept the smoke going for 12-14 hours before needing to add more.

Eta: master built claims it holds a full 16lb bag of Kingsford. It does not, maybe 3/4.

I'm talking about the Masterbuilt

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 saw that grill at Costco last night.. been talking to the wife about pellet grills and she asked it I wanted to get that one.. I said I was thinking about the Rec Tec..

What are some of the features of the Louisiana Grill that you like? I know you brought up cooking and pellet capacity, but does it hold temp like the Rec Tec and does it offer a wifi app for controls, and does it have it's own plug in meat probes? I sort of like that about the Rec Tec.

Thanks.
