      @@NoXQc Lexington has good build quality but is definitely harder to clean and its only downside is it barely fits a family pack of chicken legs but smokes the food great! Maybe could fit two 12 lb butts and maybe a 12-15 lb brisket but any whole chickens would probably be difficult and a big turkey probably wouldn't work!

    Great video! I purchased this unit about a month ago and have been pretty happy with it so far. I've done burgers, chicken legs and a tri-tip to this point and everything turned out delicious! It's my first pellet grill so I don't know how it performs against others but I would definitely recommend this unit to anyone. I am curious about the amount of smoke coming from this thing though? I'd expect smoke to be rolling out of the chimney constantly but that's not the case with this unit? Perhaps that's normal for a pellet grill? Any input would be greatly appreciated!

    • @Kissmyfuckingass1011
      @Kissmyfuckingass1011 Před 2 lety +1

      That's normal with pellet grills.
      White and thick at first during the heat up, but thins down to a very light blue and almost invisible smoke.
      Just the way it works :)
      More smoke doesn't always mean better

    Bought on sale at Walmart! Be prepared. It does take some time to put together. I got it put together by myself. It is possible. But to get it home is a booger. It is heavy! That definitely takes two people to get it down.

    How does it compare to my beloved Cuisinart Woodcreek? I can smoke with lump, chips, wood and pellets all at the same time then sear immediately afterward with the Woodcreek.

    How’s the Temperature swings on this. I had read there is not a PID controller. Did you just set it and leave it for the most part and let it work? I’m assuming it dips quite a bit without the PID.

    • @TheBarbecueLab
      @TheBarbecueLab  Před rokem

      I just set it and let it rip. There’s some temperature swing, but it’s not so much that it’s a problem for me. The grill with the best smoke color on a pork butt that we’ve done was a Pit Boss, and it wasn’t a PID controller. I’m getting to the point where I prefer a controller that’s not PID since it gives me better color and better smoke flavor. There’s still pellet grills to test, but so far the best at making low and slow bbq have been the non-PID units, or units that let you choose the controller mode between PID and letting the pellets smoke more.

  • @beemerfan9159
    @beemerfan9159 Před rokem

    I smoked chicken on this thing and we could not taste the smoke. Is there a way to increase the amount smoke?

    • @TheBarbecueLab
      @TheBarbecueLab  Před rokem

      If you’re used to charcoal smokers or offset cookers, the smoke level is much less in most pellet grills by comparison. To increase smoke flavor, I know people use pellet tubes and wood chip baskets to get more smoke in their pellet grills.

      The Cuisinart didn't have much temperature swing in our testing. If you check out the Best Pellet Grill Under $599 video, we show graphs of how much swing was in the 5 grills we tested. Here's the link: czcams.com/video/ryhc2GvvIYY/video.html

  • @jacobkoeppen9635

    Having trouble getting the amount of smoke out of mine I’m wanting. Could it be the pellets? Usually smoke between 235-250.

    • @TheBarbecueLab
      @TheBarbecueLab  Před rokem +1

      I suppose it depends on what amount of smoke you're used to, what the source was, and what it did for you. If you're coming from a stick burner or a charcoal smoker with wood chunks, you'll never get that level of smoke out of a pellet grill like this one. They're just designed differently. Tell me more about what you're used to and maybe I can help with ideas.

    So, between this, and the Pit Boss Laredo (also at Walmart for about the same price). Similar features (wifi/bluetooth, etc), which would you buy?
    Pit Boss does have a direct fire sear station, which I like, where this one doesn't. Been waiting for Walmart to put the Laredo on special, but I see this on is currently on $100 off at the moment.
