Excellent Smoker

This is my first smoker. I chose to buy a Weber because I have owned their gas grills for decades. I am a novice at smoking meats, but the Weber makes it easy. The weber will reach temperatures of 600 degrees, so grilling as well as slow smoking is possible.I am very happy with my purchase.
It takes a bit of cleaning to ensure proper operation. When it works, the results are almost unbeatable. Be prepared to give it some love and care regularly, but it’s worth every extra effort.
so far so good. simple assembly and runs like a champ. gets hot fast and holds steady. love the smoke boost feature-makes brisket look perfect. low and slow or hot and high both great.
I could not be happier with my Smokefire. In the short time I've had it I've made ribs, pork butt, brisket, beef cheeks, tritip, bacon, and smoked cream cheese (amazing). My Smokefire has worked flawlessly and I highly recommend you try it out.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Takes a little getting used to but does a great job smoking. Really like the flavor
Love my Weber Smokey Mountain but got this to be able to smoke more often and was hopeful that it could have a bit more versatility for grilling compared to other pellet grills. Have been beyond impressed as I can do everything with this, including searing steaks (I've added GrillGrates which really helps conduct the heat). I waited for 2nd generation and have enjoyed flawless operation. I've done lots of grilling and smoking without any of the issues that plagued the 1st gen release. I do use the Weber Wet Smoke kit with pans that help catch a lot of the drippings during longer/messier cooks. I've hooked up my Thermoworks Signals to monitor temp and the SmokeFire does a really great job of hitting and holding its target temp. It also gets up to temp surprisingly fast which is really nice. Would (and have) highly recommend this product.
Works great. Was surprised how much more flavor there was even when grilling burgers, steaks, chicken, and pork. Grill is easy to use. The app is helpful, but I wish it was a bit easier to use and had more cook programs and recipes. Also wish the app would allow you to input your own.
I would recommend this to a friend!
