Help deciding on Pellet grill

[Savannahsmoker]

Congrats and I think, for the price, you did well.
MY years of USA made Traeger usage came with solid 100% customer support.
Neighbor is still using a 1998 model Trager.

So it looks like I am getting the traeger for $450... I figured even with a PID controller and downdraft mod I will still be way under a new Rec Tec. Might not be as good as a Rec Tec but at least it gets me into the pellet grill and I can go from thier....

And - there are no "bad" choices - ain't that great? You are in - and you can tinker, learn and if you want more features - you can always look at more grills in the future.

I had three grills when I joined this site. I have six now and I don't see any issues with that, nope it's all well yup no problems here no grill intervention needed....

I was also in a long struggle to find the right pellet smoker.  I was also debating the Rec Tec mini but honestly decided against it. I went with the Rec Tec 680 and glad I did.  The 680 is a best and it does a good job.  Takes a bit to get used  to but people on here are so very helpful and are always willing to lend their expert knowledge to ya.  If you go with a rec tec you will not be disappointed. 

Good Luck
