I've smoked a brisket, a ribeye roast and a top sirloin. It blew my expectations. I then grills some king and snow crabs and shrimp. Great, great and great. It was a big hit at my cookout and I am able to retire my charcoal grill. The only bad thing was I only received 20 lbs of the 40 lbs of pellets that came with my order.
