Now just like the Walmart Blackstones, there are Pit Boss Pellet Grills with multiple cooking methods. Electric pellet grill, charcoal, and propane are all options for the Pit Boss, plus there are models with a cooking surface, like the Blackstone Griddles, that are interchangeable as well. And personally, the same goes for Pit Boss as it does for the Blackstone… bigger is better cause leftovers are excellent. But don’t worry Amazon and the Pit Boss website them selves also have a selection of pellet grills.

What is a Pellet Grill

A pellet grill is also called a pellet smoker or a pellet barbecue. It is a type of outdoor cooking appliance with the features of a grill and a smoker, and it can double as a convection oven for making comfort food with fantastic smoke flavor. Pellet grills run off the burning of wood pellets as the fuel source and smoke maker. There are other brands, but Pit Boss Pellet Grills are an affordable option vs the Traeger Pellet Grills.

Money and time-saving tips from the old lady. If you order pellets online from Walmart and spend $35, they will drop them off at your door for free!! Their everyday price on pit boss pellets is amazing, plus the expert grill brand has a great price. (see them ->here)

A hopper of wooden pellets feeds the fire of the grill. They are fed into a combustion chamber and ignited by a hot rod or an electric igniter. Pellets come in flavors like Hickory, Apple, Cherry, and Mesquite to flavor the food as it smokes.

Pitboss Pellet Grills have control panels that regulate the temperature and maintain consistent heat. Some Pit Boss models offer WIFI control through an app on your phone and probes to monitor the meat. The main thing you have to do is keep the hopper full, and they require minimal monitoring.
