Great forlow-and-slow smokingfeeding a crowdset-and-forget cooksgadget lovers

An option for a buyer with the budget who wants the newest controller technology, but with little independent long-term owner feedback available yet, a more established model is the safer first grill.

Pros

  • Redesigned PID-based "Smart Touch" controller aimed at tighter temperature consistency from 180-600°F
  • SearTech direct/indirect cooking with high-heat searing
  • Heavy-duty steel 22-inch barrel construction
  • WiFi/Bluetooth app control via the Smoke iT app
  • Loads of cooking room — 846 sq in feeds a crowd

Watch-outs

  • Priced at a premium over the Black Label line for broadly similar core technology
  • Too new with too thin an independent owner-review base to confirm long-term reliability
  • Premium price ($1,539)
