1000 Black Label Series

The 1000 Black Label is a 1,028 sq in wood pellet grill with an 18 lb hopper, a 180-600F range, and WiFi/Bluetooth digital control.

$1,209Approx. MSRP

A good mid-size pick for someone who wants real high-heat searing and a long warranty and can tolerate an occasional controller swap; skip it if you need a display you can trust without double-checking with a separate thermometer.

Pros

  • Sturdy, well-built construction with good porcelain-coated grates
  • 5-year warranty covering steel and electrical parts
  • Can exceed 600°F, and its direct-flame sear mode reportedly reaches over 1,100°F
  • Reasonably sized cooking area for the price tier
  • Loads of cooking room — 1028 sq in feeds a crowd

Watch-outs

  • Pellet consumption runs high for the hopper size
  • Hopper capacity is on the small side for a grill this size
  • Some owners report unreliable controllers needing replacement
  • Display readout accuracy can be off from actual chamber temp

Known niggles

  • Controller/board failures reported, with some owners waiting a long time for a replacement controller that fixed the issue
  • Digital display temperature doesn't always match the actual grill temperature
  • Vent-hole exhaust design (instead of a smokestack) lets wind cause temperature fluctuations
