Greetings!
I recently invested in a Green Mountain Pellet Grill. I considered several options, and spent a considerable amount of time reading reviews and comparing models. Finally, I settled on the Greet Mountain Daniel Boone model. Here it is, fully assembled.
I decided to complete the assembly myself, rather than have the retailer do it. I wanted to become familiar with the grill before using it. The assembly was very easy, and took approximately an hour with no help. The most difficult part was flipping the grill over after attaching the legs. Green Mountain has an assembly video on their website, and I do recommend watching it before you put your grill together if you decide to join me in owning one of these.
My primary reasons for purchasing this grill are:
- Price. This grill was less than the Traeger Lil' Tex Elite model, which has some mixed reviews.
- It has a built in temperature probe for large cuts of meat.
- The temperature ranges from 150 degrees to 500 degrees (Fahrenheit).
- I liked the built in "Fan Mode" which helps clean out your firepot after each use.
- I liked the "tented" lid, which provide ample room for large cuts of meat, or standing chickens up while cooking.
- It has a remote control. This feature wasn't necessary, but it came with the grill.
- It felt as sturdy as the Louisiana Smokers, which are a couple hundred dollars more.
- This grill has stainless steel grates, rather than porcelain coated cast iron.
- This grill has the ability to control its internal temp in 5 degree increments.
- Plenty of accessories available, including an insulation kit for winter cooking.
I'm going to do some cooking on it this afternoon. Check back for details on how things turned out!
