I've been using the Bullseye for a couple of months now. This is a great grill for everyday use! It truly has become my daily cooker over all others. It heats up quickly and cooks fast for the most part and it does a great job with the smoke flavor even cooking at faster speeds. To slow it down a bit I add a pizza stone to the heat shield. It still cooks a little fast but avoids premature browning and allows a little better smoke ring to develop.
I have used Cabelas, Pitboss, Kingsford, and Bear Mountian pellets so far. Kingsford has been the best and Bear Mountain the least impressive. My next run will be with B&B and Jealous Devil since they are readily available close by.
Now, I'm not as tidy as a lot of you when it comes to cleaning everything. I do keep things wiped down ( grates, edge surfaces, etc.. ) but historically I don't do big cleaning on my grills a lot. I have a mini shop vac that I have been keeping the ash sucked out pretty much every other cook. What I found this weekend is that this grill will require a bit more detail... This could be partly because of what I have cooked in it. Pork roast and beef chucks both of which give off more grease than the burgers, fish, and sausage tend to.
Sunday I had smoke coming back through my pellet box which was concerning. I first blamed it on the new pellets but then I saw a comment on FB that said clean the vents. This was indeed the issue. They were completely blocked with grease and dust which apparently was causing a backflow of air. They were easy to clean with a nylon brush and a screwdriver in a couple of places.
Tonight I will give it a full run to see that all is well now.
Having the small vac makes cleaning the dust out easy and now that I know... the vents should be pretty easy to keep clear.
I think there is room for improvement but I would buy it again without hesitation. I may try a couple of TMB style mods to see if I can improve the vent situation as time goes on and I want to give my kettle rotisserie a try on it. With the consistency of the beef roast so far if it makes rotisserie chicken as good as a kettle that's going to move it even higher up in points....
