I am tickled with this REC TEC1
I will be doing a review on it this week.
-
Congratulations Tim! It's always nice to have new toys to play with, and that looks like a beauty!
-
congrats. very nice grill. you got rid of your yoder and still have the mak 2 star. and now a rec tec. ya da man! I love those rec tec grills. nice job T. its pretty. you got the horns on wrong. ???
-
I got the horns wrong? Seriously? ??? ???
-
Wow, tee - that's quite a machine - have not seen one before. That's a beautiful deck you got there and a dynamite view!
Looking forward to your review and pics of your cooks ;)
-
Congratulation! Use it in good health.

Just checked on Amazon, and read a bit about it's ability to control temperature in 5-degree increments - looks like a solid unit. It's even on sale! ;)
-
Thank you all!
It has a nice combination of build quality, features and - good looks. And the price....I gotta say, I think that REC TEC has a winner ;)
The controller is famously accurate - and it is quite "fuel efficient. I burned it in for 32 2 hours @ 400F...and I can't tell that it has used more than a cup or so of pellets! REALLY....I filled the hopper completely ( It holds 40 lbs of pellets ;)) - and it hardly used any pellets. Amazing...

32 hours - seriously? The savings in pellets alone would pay for the unit given enough time
-
YOUCH...gotta fix that post should read 2hours.....
-
ok, no one is asking so I will. why the rec tec if you already own a mak?
-
YOUCH...gotta fix that post should read 2hours.....
lol, was thinking of what kind of story I could use to get my wife to lose her Traeger. Still, 2 hours at that temperature with so few pellets is excellent.
-
Well...I think it was because sometimes I need more space than I have on on grill, and - the price and feature combination...and it looks really good too - made it an easy decision.
The light in the cooker, and the hopper that holds 40 lbs are just a couple of the things I like. It uses stainless for the fire pot, the heat diffuser, the drip pan and the grates. It will do 500F...and the pellet use is low... ;)
-
all excellent points. ty. :)
-
Congrats on the new cooker Tee.
-
Congrats! The only thing missing is the Houston Texans decal.
-
Sure is Purdy!!! Look forward to your testing! Don
-
Great purchase Tim! I was really impressed with the Rec Tec that
I cooked on at the Gathering. It was my second choice when I bought
the Grid Iron and so far no regrets there.
-
Nice
-
Very nice grill...saw it in action at the Gathering.
If I ever decide to do pellets, this will be the grill for me.
Looking forward to your posts.

I had a co-worker ready to pull the trigger on a rec-tec then he went and got a hernia and had to have a operation. He wants to pay off the Medical bill now.
-
I had a sneaky hunch that's what was coming. Nice choice.
-
Can I have your MAK**? We made some good stuff on that one? just sayin. Pammie .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ

Tee, the horns are on the right way 8) My brother has my Rec Tec and loves it. Tons of space and it just looks cool on the patio. One thing to watch for, if you have the hopper filled up to the top, and you go to move the unit and do to sharp of a turn, that bad boy will tip on ya.....it happened to me when I first got it assembled and filled it up and went to move it. Luckily I was in a position to stop it, cause she was goin over.............................
Congratulations for grabbing the bull by the horns................ 8)
-
Very nice T, looking forward to seeing some of your creations coming off that baby.
-
I got the horns wrong? Seriously? ??? ???
They need to be pointing down. One thing Texas Aggies and Oklahoma Sooners have in common is a distinct "backatcha" gesture which symbolizes our sentiments concerning the gang sign so frequently and idiotically poffered by fans of that little university in Baja Oklahoma where the mascot is edible and has been on several occasions captured by forces from the north and caused to be barbequed ::)

Nice looking grill.. Cant wait to see it in action.
-
You dawg, ya' beat me in getting a Rec-Tec. Really like the way they cook and easy to clean + the 40 lbs of pellets ain't a bad idea either.
Looking forward to seeing you cook with that grill
-
Nice pellet grill Tee!
-
Congrats Tee! One of the guys on my comp team got a Rec Tec earlier this year and I have to agree that it is one awesome cooker. Spot-on temp control, interior light, shut down cooling cycle, 40 lb. pellet capacity & cool looks, as well as a good price are all reasons to own one.
We have won some $$$ on it too. Nearly enough to pay for itself in comps this season. 8)

IR2dum has said out loud what everyone else was just thinking. Net: Don't believe everything you read here OR get a huge shaker of salt ::). Nice new cooker, Tim 8)

reminds me of that commercial...
"I know it's true, because I read it on the internet. They can's say anything on the internet that isn't true."
"Where did you read that?"
"The internet."

Way to go, T! If I ever get a pellet cooker, that's the one! Little matter of medical bills right now, but some day... I can't wait to see what you cook on this!
-
That is a handsome looking grill. Congrats!
-
very nice looking grill
-
Hog Dang! That sure is a spiffy looking grill. I think if I ever cross over to the pellet cooker side that is the one that I would get.
-
OOOoowwweeeeeee That is 1 Nice looking grill! Ron does a great job with them. You are a lucky man....Also, I think I may know about some pellets that will work wooonnders in that grill ;)!!

Congrats on the new REC TEC! I just posted my review on one recently. It's an awesome pellet cooker and looks pretty bad a$$ in my opinion!
Here's a couple pics from my pork butt cook I did on it:

Does sound like courting ???
Think an intervention is needed?
