Another great mod, Tom. I enjoy how you take an inexpensive pellet grill and dress it up…..looks so much better!!!! Thanks for posting!

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching Robert! I really enjoy that…

[@ericperry72]

Nice mods. Wish you still had this grill to see how you woukd mod it further to add a rotisserie and a light for night time grilling.

Well done love it

That looks really nice that red really makes it pop. The shelf is a nice add on as well I was looking at those pellet grills and that was the one thing I wished it had. So now when I get one I can just add my own shelf thanks to your video.

Thanks for watching!

Terrific video and modifications in the land of grills. Your videos helped me decide on the Z-Grills 700 2C2E, and that is an amazing grill! Holds temp so well! On your advice, we also bought the cast iron sear plate and also the Grill grates. Seared our steaks at 675 degrees! We have used it every day for nearly a month. Homemade wood-fired pizza tomorrow! Thanks, Tom!

I'd match the self and hopper cover to the lid now. Looks nicer and any outdoor cooker needs to have a shelf unless maybe it's an outdoor kitchen and you have counter space to utilize.

I have one of those and was thinking about using the clean out plug in the bottom to pipe in real wood smoke from a can on a hot plate .

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching Jeff! That’s an interesting idea, let me know how it works

[@ironhead320]

Looks good those grills now are 297.00 just seen it at walmart

[@michaelharriman2794]

Only thing I would say is I would have went with the bigger shelf I have the same thing bamboo but I went from left to right the width of the grill really convenient added an inside shelf and a rotisserie I've had my Green mountain grill over nine years with no problem stayed away from the primes I've heard nothing but trouble about them nice work though I might paint my hood like that I like that

Hey Tom I have the same smoker and I was thinking of doing a mod for the vents in the back. Any idea on what to do to cover it ? Thanks 👍 love the channel!!

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching Sebastien! The Louvered type vent on the back actually work pretty decent. You could rivet on a piece of sheet metal, non galvanized on the inside to block it off and the install a traditional style pellet grill chimney to the side of the grill. I believe smoke daddy inc sells them. www.smokedaddyinc.com

It's probably a one year max warranty anyhow on a cheap grill. I think your "dice roll" was totally worth it. Looks great.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching Evan! 2 year warranty

[@davidclark6113]

Where can I get a new drip tray and can u show me what is the hole under the cooking box?

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching Davis! I would try customer service for the drip tray, I don’t have this grill anymore so in not sure which hole you’re referring to

[@jaybooth4815]

Great mods Tom! So I’m guessing another mod might be to the heat deflector? Nicely done!

[@dwightkinney7840]

Tom, I find the surface temp is about 40deg higher than the chamber probe indicates. Have you considered lowering the location of the chamber probe to grill level?

“I void warranties. It’s what I do.” Lol nice…. I picked up a few Webers on Offerup and Craigslist. I’ve learned folks never registered their grills and don’t take advantage of their warranty anyways.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching! I agree

If it doesn't Void the warranty it's not any fun. 👍😁 Awesome! 👍 \🔥/

[@doplinger1]

@@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ - thanks, Tom. I’m a noob barbecuer, I just have a Masterbuilt electric smoker. It does an OK job but I want to graduate to something better and a $1000 grill/smoker is NOT in the budget. This looks like a good option as long as it doesn’t fall apart within a couple years. I pretty much have only ever done briskets and pork shoulders so I’d like to see how it does.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks Dave! Time will tell

[@shelbyheberling7207]

Has the paint held up? Or should you go to the high heat?

I wonder who really makes a grill purchase decision based on the length of warranty? In the infamous words of Tommy Boy: "Because they know all they sold ya was a guaranteed piece of sh*t. That's all it is, isn't it? Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed, I will. I got spare time." I say modify away Tom.
