Hi Tom, so I was wondering, is the new 380x really worth the $350 more over the basic 380? Do I really need 1000deg? and do you find the lack of a pellet dump and grease drain major drawback over something like the Zgrills 700 series? Thanks.
Thanks for watching Steve! You don’t need 1000 degrees, it is cool though. For me not having a pellet dump isn’t a big deal. You can put an aluminum tray with water on the diffuser to catch the grease. The PID and Wi-Fi connection is awesome. All Weber 22” kettle accessories fit. All stainless top and bowl. If this going to be your only smoker and you have a gas grill to seat, then the 700 is the way to go. If you want a pellet grill that does hot and fast and low and slow then this is the recteq is the way to go
That seasoning is the best. That grill is awesome! The mods you did were great too. I've enjoyed all your videos Tom.
Thanks for Watching!
