I have a PitBoss 850XL. It’s never let me down and I have about 300lb’s of pellets through it this year. We use it alot!
However, I’ve heard nothing but great things about a Camp Chef and my next one will most likely be one. The ease of cleaning the fire pot is what has me sold on the Camp Chef.
Keep it clean, unplug it when done and always, always, always follow the proper shutdown instructions…
IMO, it’s almost more important to use good pellets versus what brand of grill you buy. I switched to Lumberjack pellets about a month ago and it’s all I’ll use. Gone through almost 80lb so far. They produce a little more ash, but I clean mine out after 4 hours of cooking or after a long cook. Never had smoke out issues, even on a 14 hour cook.
