The pellet grill database

Every current grill we cover, in one sortable table. Click a column header to sort. An "n/a" means that spec has not passed our verification yet; we print confirmed numbers or nothing.

A note on rank versus score: the score is our weighted 10-part measure, and the #1 spot is our tested editorial pick. They usually agree; when they do not, the review explains exactly why. The Flagship 1600 currently outscores our overall pick on paper, and the how we test page covers why the Searwood XL still wins the top slot: searing, startup, and day-to-day ease.
