I have heard good things about it and other smoke generators. I am a charcoal stick and chunk cooker kind of guy and feel that pellets leave me wanting more.
One of my locals went to a commercial pellet and I could taste it one the first bite. He purchased a smoke generator and I had to ask if it was a pellet or stick cook. I was impressed with flavor.
I don't like many of the pellet/ disc feeders as when they break the company seams to hit you hard in the wallet. New units now (Rec Tec 4 years) and a few others warranties are worth having but early models were horror stories. being able to do upgrades gets expensive too.
I like the looks of the Gorilla unit (for the same money) Silverback (not r2d2
) looks good up front, but most of their parts, accessories are 20% higher than RecTec with the same warranty. I'm not assembling one, then finding out I don't like, tacking apart, repacking, and then spending a $!0 to ship it back . When I see one in use and if it passes the pellet taste test..I'd buck up.
The problem is if you install a smoke generator, you void the warranty. If they would just put a knock out in for mounting one.....
