This is phenomenal. We recently moved and pitched our old grill and smoker. Was actually shopping for a smoker and came across this. After a little research and considering the versatility and price we decided to give it a try. So glad we did. We have had it 2 weeks and have cooked a brisket, pork chops, and steaks on it. Initially we were a little concerned about the size but it has proven to be just right for us. Assembly was easy, and there are you tube videos and easy to navigate zgrills website for questions, tips, and easy to follow recepies.
