[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to use. First time using a pellet grill and so far I’ve been very impressed. Easy to use and easy clean up. Looking forward on trying out different things to cook.

First Time Griller
on June 20, 2022

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Grill was simple to assemble (took me about 2 hours, but I wasn't rushing). It arrived sooner than expected and with no noticeable blemishes. The hardware included was just enough to get the job done, but with 2-3 additional of the smaller screws, which was nice since I had lost a couple during install. I've used the grill five times since purchase for steaks, bratwursts, kabobs, burgers, and recently a 10lb bone-in ham. The ham was smoked, the rest were grilled. So far it's operated smoothly without issues and the temp is stable, even on days with high winds. Hot spots are easy to identify, and mine was closest to the chimney (which makes sense). The 6002B has more than enough capacity for me, my wife, and two children. There is not as much clearance between the grill and warming rack as I would like, but with long enough utensils it's bearable. I'm somewhat concerned that the RTD cable has to be sandwiched between the grill body and the hopper, but this hasn't been an issue. Only having owned this grill for a couple weeks I can't speak to it's longevity, but based on the materials and construction I'd be surprised if anything had issues.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall it's great. Only issue is temp that runs 50° higher than the selected temp setting

Perfect Smoked Ribs!
on September 5, 2022
Posted by: AlanB

This past weekend I trialed my new Z Grill with the smoked rib recipe provided via email. Ribs were smoked for 3 hours at 225 degrees using Mesquite pellets. The grill held the temperature within 5 degrees despite variable winds (5-20mph). I then foil wrapped the ribs with the Z Grills secret sauce and put them back on the grill at 275 for another 2 hours. One final hour out of foil with my favorite BBQ sauce followed by 15 min rest period. The meat fell off the bone and tasted fantastic! This affordable and versatile grill is now my favorite way to smoke meats!

Not great, warranty is a pain
on September 13, 2022

My 6002b lasted about one year. It made phenomenal turkeys, pork shoulder, tuna steaks, and turkey burgers.
Then the fire rod stopped getting hot. They sent me a new one, I had to swap it out. That didn't work, so they had me do some diagnostics and send a video. They sent me a replacement controller. I swapped it out. Now it gives me heat errors after I turn it on following the startup procedure in the manual. It also does not maintain temperature.
They're sending me a new hopper assembly, which I get to install when it gets here and hopefully that fixes it. If it doesn't fix it, I'll probably buy a Traeger.
If it works it's great, but don't expect more than a year out of it, and get ready to watch videos of grill repairs... kind of like this one.
