Pit Boss Austin XL

I saw these at walmart for about $500, ive never had anything nicer than a weber and i was wonderin if yall might have any experience with them or know someone who has. I know the traegers are very nice but a goof bit more expensive. Thanks.

Wanna say there's a few on here who have 'em. Maybe they'll chime in.....

Im hopin somebody will, id like to hear the good or bad about them. They look pretty nice but im no grill expert.

I have a Texas 075 Traeger , good thing I got it for bout 1/2 price, I'm gonna sell it and prolly get a Pit Boss, they are advertised to maintain 500 degrees , they look heavier built than a Traeger. The Traeger won't get hot enough for me, it used to get to bout 450 , now won't get to 400. The new Pit Boss has a 5 year warranty too.

We passed the hat at work and bought a Pit Boss. It gets used probably 4 days a week on average. It’s very nice. I personally own a traeger and the Pit Boss is definitely heavier built and gets hotter than the traeger. You won’t be disappointed.

Comparing comparable sizes , looks like the Pitt Boss is 30-40% cheaper than the Traeger.

Do yall need that 500 temp for anything besides a steak...??

I was wondering what they are doing at 500 degrees. Cool that thing down to 225 and smoke a butt or some ribs.

500 for a steak , 425-450 for pizza. Versatility .

And burgers

And burgers.

I have a relatively cheap grill with porcelain grates that I can adjust the charcoal all the way up to within 2 inches of the grate using a crank handle and worm gear, gives me a nice char on steaks. My son bought it for me at Walmart. Think its a chargriller or something like that.
