Deck Boss 800

A mid-size wood-pellet grill with 800 sq in of cooking space and a 30 lb hopper, holding 180-700°F.

$1,000Approx. MSRP

Good for a beginner who wants one grill that both smokes low-and-slow and sears hot, but skip it if you have limited patio space or want the cheapest entry point.

Pros

  • 810 sq in of cooking space with a large 30-hour-rated hopper
  • PID controller praised for holding temperature within about 5°F
  • 700°F searing capability alongside low-and-slow smoking
  • 4-year bumper-to-bumper warranty with US-based support
  • Loads of cooking room — 800 sq in feeds a crowd

Watch-outs

  • Combo grill/griddle-style design means it's a bigger, heavier unit to fit and store
  • Premium price point (roughly $850-950) compared to basic single-purpose smokers
  • Newer model with less multi-year reliability track record than older Recteq lines
  • Few obvious weak spots for the money
