I probably looked at fifty different videos and even more reviews before choosing the product.  

I initially was looking at the Traeger, because someone I knew had one, but I felt limited  LBs what it offers.   When I stumbled upon this baby, I saw that all of my concerns were addressed I knew it was for me.

I specifically was drawn by the fact that it was charcoal, and I could add wood intermittently as well.   I personally stagger my coal and wood chunks.  I also loved that I could get a hard sear with the temperature moving up to 700 degrees on it.  

Best purchase I could have made
