[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overly excited about my smoker at first only to find out my lid on the smoker doesn’t fit properly, doesn’t quite seal around the side and the front of the lid like it’s supposed to but instead I have an 1/8-1/4 inch gap along the front side and all along the bottom of the front of the lid, all the heat and smoke is rolling out from these gaps, I’ve reached out to Z grills support and they’ve told me they’ll be able to send me a new lid. Just patiently waiting now.
I made a 5 LB pork butt, 7 lbs of baby back ribs, 10 lbs chicken wings and 12 burgers this weekend.
The food was great. The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars, there are 2 spots between the grill and the lid where heat/smoke is leaking. It was 28 degrees on Sunday and I had a challenge maintaining heat.
All things considered, it was a good experience and the results were fantastic.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The grill worked great it did everything I wanted it for .I smoked bacon that I had cured and a ham to.They turned out just the way I was hoping.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the grill. Looking forward to some warmer weather to use it a lot more. It's been down around freezing both times I've used it and believe the thermal blanket would really help keep the temperature up. I wasn't able to buy it at this time.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The grill worked amazing. I’m very happy with the fit and finish. As far as smoking quality goes it worked just as good if not better than my in-laws expensive Traeger. Of course the temperatures very a bit. But it’s also 20 degrees here in Minnesota. I just let it do it’s thing and in 12 hours time I had a delicious juicy cooked brisket. With a perfect smoke ring. I am very impressed and will definitely buy a bigger one soon.
I received my grill, read all the instructions and have already done a tri-tip, turkey breast, and a pork butt. So far it seems really easy to use. I also like the recipes on the website.
