Hi all

Ben Here from Canberra, love my Weber cooking, hunt'n and camping, going to get myself an offset soon,pellet grill, hmmmmmm

Hey buddy Canberra here too.... what sort of pellet grill are you looking at and what pellets are you thinking about?

There's plenty of Pellet cookers around now from the very bloody expensive but extremely well built competition cookers like the Yoder series but you'll be looking at $4k to start, Cheaper and quite good are the Louisiana range of pellet grills, the LG900 is probably the most favourite and is under $2K and it uses the same hopper as the Yoder.

Then you have Green Mountain grills which are great for tall foods like huge turkeys, beer can chickens because of the high lid and it has the wifi to change settings remotely.

Traeger range, the company that began the entire pellet grill movement...they invented it.

Plus theres a few cheapies from Bunnings.

Meatstock in Sydney and Melbourne will be on a few Months from now so get to them and talk with the owners.

Oh and Weber will bring out a new pellet grill midway through this year...looks like a winner.

Cheers

the weber pellet grills aint getting good reviews, and fat fires aplenty

Wow..really...jeez...that will have to be rectified quick.

It's not like Weber to introduce a product without going through rigorous testing before release....they'd be getting all the Pros putting them through the paces.

Have they actually been released in the US yet or still under testing as I know some distributors over there are still awaiting their initial supplies.
