Re: Pellet cookers in the tropics
Great video.
At 160lbs lighter than the Yoder Y series, whoever imports GMG into Australia should be able to stack them to the top of a container which should really help the price here.
Will be interesting to see how their Australian Electrical Safety Testing goes for Australia.
Another Pellet cooker here can only be a good thing for all Australians
Cheers Dave

Re: Pellet cookers in the tropics
Keen to see a GMG, reading between the lines and from what I can see in pics, they look like a good middle ground unit! That's just what the market needs, more options. are GMG 100% made in USA?

The GMG has Australian Safety Standard approval; they made sure was done before organising to import them.Grill Pro Australia wrote:

Actually, the company doing this does everything by the book....it's standard Business practice, you can't get insurance without it, and you'd be mad to do anything else!.....It's the Law!

Re: Pellet cookers in the tropics
I look forwaed to seeing more people on the dark side using pellet cookers, It has to be a boon for thr Aussie BBQ industry as a whole, the more that are available, the more that are sold, the more that are sold - the more that will be sold.
Happy days for all.

Re: Pellet cookers in the tropics
Sorry dudes and Dudetts, I didnt mean for anyone to get their nickers in a knot.
Ive allready ruled out some makes, So its seems a china made unit is it.
Unless I win the lotto.

They are Manufactured in China, the company just opened a new Factory in the last year. They are an American company. Seems to me it would cost no more to ship a container to Australia as it would the US.

Re: Pellet cookers in the tropics
I know this is a very subjective question, but what do you think an "average" decent gas unit sells for in Oz?

I completely agree Captain, the more we can open Australians eyes to the versatility of pellet cookers, the more we will sell them here & the more we sell the more the awareness will grow.Captain Cook wrote:I look forward to seeing more people on the dark side using pellet cookers, It has to be a boon for the Aussie BBQ industry as a whole, the more that are available, the more that are sold, the more that are sold - the more that will be sold.

Now I know some may disagree & this is just my opinion, One Barbecue to do the lot, better tasting steaks & snags than Gas, juicer & more flavoursome poultry & roasts, "Low & Slow" every bit as good as an offset ( again, just my experience from tasting in the US last year & Jack the Ribber etc ) & awesome wood fired pizzas..... so why would the average Aussie look at any other BBQ? Most folks here will use their Charcoal or Offset once or twice a week, where's a Pellet Cooker they will use 5 + days a week due to the quick & easy operation ( & fantastic results )
All good SM, great you are considering one, my opinion is you will love itSmokey Mick wrote:

Exactly Bentley, in fact if anything even cheaper than shipping to the US!!!Bentley wrote:They are Manufactured in China, Seems to me it would cost no more to ship a container to Australia as it would the US.

This is a very interesting question & I'm really interested to see what others think. We walked into a good Gas Barbecue shop a couple of months ago & spoke to the owner who is looking at stocking the BBQs that we import, he had Gas BBQs from $700 - $8,800 & everything in between. One of the questions we asked him was which price point Gas BBQ does he sell the most of? His answer was that he sells $3,000 Gas BBQs every day of the week & this is his "sweet spot"Bentley wrote:I know this is a very subjective question, but what do you think an "average" decent gas unit sells for in Oz?
This is such a great journey to be a part of!

Re: Pellet cookers in the tropics
This is exactly what I meant...I did not break any records in my SAT scores as you all can figure out!
Wow! So $1500 is not as drastic a purchase as I though it would be for many! Amazing! Guess I have always been a working man and $800 was a shock for me! I should have studied much harder in school!
