Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

It’s not a Green Egg! I knew that going into it but it was a good alternative till I can afford one. I cook on it every night and have learned like any grill it has its quirks. At first I thought it cooked way to hot then I figured out you have to adjust the temperature before it reaches beyond what you want it to be. Let it get close to what you want to cook at and then use the factory settings before it gets there a1/4. Plus 1/8 etc... And she will hold that temp the entire time you grill. don’t try to get it to 500 to sear and then be pissed when it won’t cool as fast as an Egg or Joe. I’ve cooked on a green egg and kamodoe joe for years when I had a roommate that had both. When I moved out I couldn’t bring myself to spend the money for just me at my own house. It doesn’t have the natural Smokey flavor as the porcelain models I had hoped for but I’ve started using wood chips to make up for it. All in all I’m very happy with it for the price point. Very well built. Those that claim the lid falls off or the grate broke within a few months of owning it probably over tourqued the screws with a drill or let the heat get way to hot on the grate. (it will get hot fast if you let it!) I read those reviews and used a hand held screw driver on the parts I didn’t want to fall off and have had no issues. I clean my grate before and after every use and it still looks brand new even after months of daily use. Great product for every level grillers and those who take pride in cooking everything over lump charcoal which is reusable if you choke it out after your done grilling your food.
