I did some research on line for a pellet grill. This is a new type of grilling for me. One big deciding factor was the Weber Searwood accepted a rotisserie, where as the others didn't. I looked at many videos and reviews and bought one. So far I have used it 3 times, pork chops, chicken on the rotisserie and burgers. I am so happy with the results. I finally can get food with a smoke flavor from a BBQ. The smoke flavor isn't overwhelming, and the meat stays juicy. The controller is awesome. It holds the temperature that is programmed into it, alerts me on the phone when there is a change or time is up, and best of all I can go inside to make other food while the grill is cooking but I don't have to worry about flare ups and the food burning. I like looking through the recipes Weber has on their website for more ideas on what and how to make for dinner.
