I have a MAK 1 Star General. Super solid, setting the temp is like setting your oven, and puts out a good amount of smoke.

Looking at Rec Tec grills. A friend had one and swears by it. A neighbor has a Traeger and enjoys the WiFi.

Look at the Memphis grill line. Not cheap but you get what you pay for. Well insulated and use half the pellets of some other brands. Love mine!

I’m at the majors and the price of the Memphis grills had me running to the hills. They are the best looking grills.
Pitts and Spitts started making pellet grills but $1,800 for the cheapest one is too much. They do look nice for a Texas Boy though.
