Assembly was simple. Started cooking soon after seeing it up. This was my first pellet smoker. Smoke flavor was stronger than i expected even on hamburgers cooked at 350 and quite delicious. First week i owned it i made chicken wings, 3 racks of ribs using a method 3-2-1, a spatchcocked whole brined chicken, several nights of hamburgers and hot dogs and a pork belly dish... all came off without a hitch. The wifi app was more useful than i originally expected as well.
The smoke boost is great. I have had 2 Traeger pro series and the Weber has better smoke penetration in the meat. The Weber technology on the smoker isn’t the best. The wifi doesn’t sync up and the app on the phone isn’t the best.
My Weber Grill is so versatile. We've smoked brisket, grilled and smoked steaks, and hamburgers and hot dogs. I'm preparing beer can chicken, wings, and pizza next. I love it.
Your Generation 2 is amazing. My family showed me how much they love my BBQ by not adding any barbecue sauce to my ribs, chicken or Pork shoulder and pork steaks (St Louis). My family are asking me to make all our dinners in my new grill
Great grill/smoker so far. Very easy to assemble but helpful if you have a second person. So far have cooked a low and slow brisket, bone in ribeyes and some chicken. Next up is a pork butt. Very easy to use and i feel guilty using it after using an offset stick smoker for so many years. Good quality product from Weber.
Total waste of money, I’ve used it 3 times and had to take it apart twice to get it to work. Crappy workmanship, the welds on the auger are broken so the center rod turns but the screw it’s supposed to be welded to doesn’t.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
