Hi all,
I've been following this forum for a while now,checking all information I could find on all the pellet grills. starting to know the community a little. I have never used or seen a pellet grill before. But I do know I wanna cook with wood. I've been grilling with a WoodFlame for about 13 years, it works on hardwood only and I love the flavor so much that I wanna be a PelletHead to go low and slow. I'm about to pull the trigger but before I do, I'd like to here what you guy's and gal's have to say about the PG 500 .. the good, the bad and the ugly.
I've noticed that when some ask for pit suggestions, Mak, Memphis and yoder come up more than the PG 500 does.
I love the idea of top down smoking and grilling in the same unit, but is the temperature easy enough to adjust(HHT,LHT)?
Does the pellet controller do what its supposed to do, is it erratic or hard to work with?
Does it perform well or better than other pellet grills?
The PG 500 has a hefty price tag, so I would like to know what I'm getting in too before I get in.
I thank you for all your inputs.
