Feels weird seeing Trevor here and not reviewing golf clubs.

Bought a used Daniel Boone, my first smoker, as far as I know it's the greatest smoker grill ever made as it bangs out great 15lb brisket, chicken, etc and real deal for the $200 I paid for it😁

I've seen clean out pots underneath a pellet smoker. A small door to release the ashes quickly.

@mefobills279 1 year ago

Instead of venturi, use cyclonic. The burnpot ports direct the flow around in a circle, like a cyclone. The sped up air (like a venturi) on the perimeter helps clear out pellet dust.

I love my GMG live in nz, I used mine every 3-4 weeks,why I when for the GMG was all the attachment that a lot off bbq don't come with, used the pizza one all the time, got the hight shelf for it to do two over night brisket 18+ hrs. Had mine for about 6 years now, worm motor played up from start GMG nz replace it was thought lock down here,covid days.replace the mother board and just done the fan, yes the glass window and light don't work,only if you clean them every time.down here Yoder is 2,5 times more in price.So for me it's a great overall bbq for the price.Love the video.Thanks Mike

I have a GMG. Haven’t had any issues and holds temps well. Cons: horrible app and wifi, window and interior light useless (both covered with soot after one cook), minimal smoke on meats.

@jhaas68865 1 year ago

Like the glass to view in and that it has lights. As far as the Wi-Fi was does it control? Can you adjust temps and see pellet level? That little bar on the base in the front needs to go. If that was a support feature put it in the back and that thing should not be that bendy.

Would be interested in a review where you put thermometers throughout and move the heat deflector to see how much it changes.

Can you review the new Weber Smoque vs searwood ? Just bought a Weber genesis S325 and need a smoker just can’t decide what to get. Thanks

@RicsBBQSpecialties 1 year ago

Great Review! GMG is the only brand pellet smokers I use and the new 2.0’s are worth the money.

@scottyoung6745 1 year ago

I love my Ledge, but the Wi-Fi is spotty at best; it really won't work unless it's beside the router. The app is trash. i contacted GMG they said my software needed an update. did that now the grill shuts off the igniter, and the only way to get it going again is to power off, then back on after I vacuum the pellets out of pot.

I have a Gmg and a Timberline 850, food is great off both. Timberline way more cash tho not worth it my opinion

@frankbarlow3154 1 year ago

Gmg has the best pizza oven option!

@gregmiller674 1 year ago

The window is useless. After 2 smokes, it’s unusable. You have to clean it every time if you really want to use it. Also you have to make sure you clean any grease drips otherwise the paint bubble up and comes off. The vacuum port works somewhat, but you still need to open it up and vacuum out the pot. It does cook well but the grates are not very good. I’m saving another $1000 and buying a Yoder and giving a GMG to my son.

Why no top rack?

@dalef3583 1 year ago

I think that bar along the bottom that is in the way should probably be on the back instead of the front. Assembly error?

@Bam-BamMoore-zz2vk 1 year ago

DID THE ORIGINAL OWNERS OF GMG SELL TO A CORPORATE BUYER? THEIR CUSTOMER SUPPORT WENT FROM A 10 TO A -3… 😕

Kinda hard to enjoy a review when you lowkey shit on it in the beginning lol

@Sum1snrg 1 year ago

Cheap Chinese steel. Mine started rusting out in less than a year. I have an old 110v unit, and the steel and paint still look great living outside for almost 10 years.
