- $60 Ribeye Steak reversed seared on a $150 Pellet Cooker and it was fantastic! Buy the ASMOKE Traveler Pellet Grill here: www.indiegogo.com/projects/as...
I have to say, I was shocked at how well this cooker worked at this low price. The temps were stable and the sear was hot! I ended up with a perfectly cooked ribeye steak, with beautiful color and a great smoky flavor. I recommend this cooker to anybody looking for a small grill for camping, RVing, or on an apartment balcony. Great little cooker!

*First use to make hamburgers. After on put lid on And the paint bubbled on top of grill **MyBest.Kitchen** and the top burned. No flame it just was ready to grill 4 hamburgers. I was shocked that it couldn't take the heat. No heat more then normal. Very disappointed.*
I don't really grill but this was easy to carry and bring with me camping as a backup in case th-cam.com/users/postUgkxTAV04Wwc8vZvciP7ycqR1S4raCS0TnUc I couldn't get a fire going. In my opinion it is better to bring a charcoal grill instead of a gas grill as a backup because if it rains or the leaves around are still damp from a recent rain; you can use the charcoal to help your fire keep going even though a gas grill is easier to temp control with. Overall, pleased with my purchase.
Woww i cant believe you try my RUB!!! 👊👊👊👊
That little tangent about the power tools being used at 16:30 gave me life. I felt it in my soul.
Great cook once again, Greg.
This guy... I'm not sure what he's working on, but he's been out there at 10pm sawing crap!
When you work all day, the evening is the only time you can get things done. I can definitely relate. My neighbor and I would’ve killed each other long ago if we had a problem with that. Great cook. Thx for sharing.
Great review of the new grill Greg and delicious looking steak! Big fan of your's all the way from Scotland and really appreciate the videos you have still manged to put out during this pandemic! Keep up the great work!
That’s an impressive gadget for the 21st century family; grown up kids live with Mom. Pop lives with gf. Or alone 🤫. I’m not firing up the bbq to cook 2 burgers. This is what I need 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Idk if you're talking shit but i'm 28 and living at home with my mom and gonna get this for us lol.

Wow thanks man! Great video. I submitted my order through the indiegogo link. Have been using a $50 Brinkman POS smoker for the past five years… which works, but is temperamental and random in regard to temperature control. Hoping this Asmoke Traveler will up my game and give me some street cred.
If you want, my wife will come and straighten out the neighbors with the power tools. They’ll be wearing them before it’s all over. Good looking steak.
I really appreciate the style of your videos, again a very nice and informative explanation 👍👍👍
Pretty cool little pellet cooker. Great review. Cook on steak was awesome.😎👍
Great review! Thanks!
What a great idea, hope it comes to the UK, deffo buying one. Thanks for the video.
Great video review. And thank you very much for the measurements all around. I was curious about the size of the proteins I could put on the grill and you answered my questions. So thank you again for that
Thanks for the demo and making me hungry! :-) I'm going to talk my brother into buying this. He lives in an apartment and this is perfect for him.
Good job! Another informative video, hats off to you. This looks a little small for my needs but I'm sure will work for lots of people.
Gregg, why are you making me make a bad decision today? I just bought the bundle of two for me and my father in law.
Great video as always!
Great video. Happy Father’s Day and thanks for your service.
Nice little smoker. Thanks for sharing your experience with this one.
Pretty impressed with that little cooker. That steak came out fantastic and I think it’s cool that it can hit those high temps. Cheers, brother! Great video and review!
Thanks for stopping by Mike!
TKS
Very nice video, thanks for the info. Great grill and steak!!
Just what I am looking for for my RV. Big enough for two of us and small enough to put in RV. Just order one and can't wait till it comes in. THanks for the great video.
Hey Greg! I ordered this grill the day you posted the video. Well it came in over the weekend and broke it in last night. Reverse seared cheap NY strips. Man this little cooker impressed me! I only wish it was about an inch taller, I can't fit a 5 pound Boston butt on it LOL. No regrets on this purchase though.
Thanks I just bought the pit boss model. Pretty much the same. Love mine so far
I just picked up the pit boss model today and did the burn in. Going to take it camping this weekend and cook on it. I came across this video and was kind of shocked how similar the asmoke and pitboss units are.
Mmmmmmm cooked to perfection, Lovely.
Digging this little set up, nice! You mentioned going to the desert to camp, check out the Green Mountain Davy Crockett, it’s 12volts DC
I appreciate this vid because I've been pondering on whether or not to pre-order one. 💯
you can try to pre-order one, now still at $150, the price will be in final $188. so do it now. tks
Just bought one as well...can't wait to get it. It's small but much less hassle for me than setting up charcoal and wood burns in my tower smoker. I've been shopping around and all these micro pellet smokers are well above $200...and none of them have a temp probe built in! This is a smoking deal...pun intended! LOL
Excellent review Greg, you sold me. I backed them! Andre gave me some of that rub as well, haven't used it yet.
I got one. It works great. Rib Eye tomorrow. Cooked a 5lb brisket an 8lb pork butt and leg quarters. All turned out great. Thanks for the review.
It is a great little cooker!
Cool video Greg. Thanks.
Looks great. Awesome videos.
I got mine for $119 with a 5lb bag of apple wood pellets, these cool gloves for picking hot items up, a set of tongs and I meat thermometer that plugs directly into the grill . Just did a brisket this weekend and it came out amazing.
Like always great video and review
Do a $200 steak on the hood of your car next
Lol!
😂
LOL! Now, that's a challenge!
I remember my apartment days, it was me and a Hibachi on the patio balcony! 😂😂😂
I also lived in an apt in my early 20’s and my dad gave me a heavy steel hibachi. My wife and I used it for years on the balcony.
Just picked one up based on your video - thanks Chef!
I just got mine! New to pellet smoking and was curious about cooking a tomahawk, thanks for the tips
Couldn't hear the power tools from next door at all. Great video and great looking smoker. Thanks Greg.
Thank you.
Thanks for the review. Just bought one on Indiegogo. I also bought a Masterbuilt 1050 Gravity charcoal smoker. Hope you get a chance to review that bad boy.
Greg that thing rocked that steak. I’m very surprised!! Man you have a lot of toys. Makes me not look as bad to my wife lol. Happy Father’s Day brother!!

We don’t blend the applewood with any other wood species and try to pass it off as 100% applewood. We don’t use flavoring oils in a base wood to try and pass it off as apple. TKS INDEED.
When I finish my steaks using the reverse sear, I generally put butter, garlic and rosemary on both sides
Tastes amazing
I wish my traeger had the sliding vent to sear! Great video. Great price.
Looking forward to getting mine.
Way to gogo awesome steak and cool grill, Thanks for sharing.
Looks amazing
Background noise was not an issue. I didn't even notice it until you pointed it out. Excellent presentation, all pertinent info was included.
great cook, i may need this!!
I just ordered one!
I may pick one of these up, this is perfect size for me and my needs.
tks
Thanks Greg. Looks like a solid option for a starter grill. Happy Fathers Day! Looked like the grease basket had a small hole in the bottom of it. If that's the case, I hope that gets addressed prior to mass production.
I noticed that too. Didn't make much sense.
*Made my mouth water!* 🥩😷👍🏻
Take my $$!! That thing is cool Greg, great price for sure, great looking steak!
Greg, you're always spot on. Thanks brother. Are you in AZ?
Fantastic review. I'm thinking this would be a great cooker for the RV...
That is a nice pellet grill, and a nicely done steak. Cheers, Greg!
TKS
I just ordered Mine Yesterday . I have a Large Members Mark pellet grill I bought at Sams for 199.00 on close out And I like it, However I was looking for something smaller for Hamburgers , hot dogs, And steaks . What sold me was the direct cooking feature,,,,,, I hope it comes soon , can't wait to try it.
Cant wait to receive mine. I believe I won’t get it till August. But either way nice video. Thanks.
That was a nice presentation Gregg, and that pellet grill would be the perfect addition to my needs. I want to see long term how this preforms.
you can try to pre-order one, now still at $150, the price will be in final $188. so do it now. tks
I just put my money down for one. This will be my first pellet grill and will fit nicely on my little patio. The price was too good. Thanks for making the review.
perfect for an apartment with some room outside.
My thoughts exactly!
that thing would be perfect for carrying with me on my gig. I really miss smoking me some meat.. Good stuff man.
Just went on and bought one thanks
That looks almost EXACTLY like the Country Smoker traveler I recently purchased. Great little unit.
It pretty much was.
Do u recommend that country smoker,as im looking to purchase,would a tomahawk ribeye fit
@@tophauler8626 I ended going with the GMG Davey Crockett. Awesome little smoker. Little more than this one, but I've heard some horror stories. The Davey Crockett is better in a bunch of ways, and yes a tomahawk will fit.
@@davidurdahl6656 horror story of which one
@@tophauler8626 this traveler
I was very impressed with the sear.
I need to get one of these little guys, I already have the Go Big or Go Home size, it can do 5 Briskets.
That Grill option is very appealing.
Tks, John.
Nice Video ...Thanks.
Nice getting your hands on Andres rub!
Nice vid greg. Wish it was 12v capable though. Do you have any thoughts on the masterbuilt 560 gravity? Thinkin about buying one
We have one as well which is still in the box. We plan on using with our RV.... Do you recommend lining the metal below the grates with tinfoil as we do with our GMG and Treagers? This one is a bit more complex with the slider. We know how messy the drip tray can get. Any suggestions are very welcome. Thank you!
Looks like a mini Pit Boss from an internal design perspective and from the controller also

Agree alot of the same features, nice little grill but that is not a PID controller.
Thanks for the great review! I backed this as someone living in a small apartment & they said I could only have an electric grill... I think this qualifies, right?! ;)
Does it really qualify in an apartment complex?
Thanks for the demo, good overview! How much of the hopper did you burn through on this steak?
I used mine yesterday for about 3.5 hrs. Ran it at 180° for about an hour, 225°, for about an hour and a half then finished with an hour of 250°. It used a little more than a pound of pellets. They say that their pellets burn better than the big brands because they don't use filler or oils
Just put in an order for one of them little guys, will put it in my camper!

@@ASMOKEGrills Thanks for answering the PID temperature Control System question. I can't wait for this to show up.
Done the searing on a Traeger... good luck with the cleaning. Impressed with this little grill though.
Cleaning wasn't that bad.
Ballistic BBQ Would deff get this little guy, and also a Generator :)) great video as always man, i like how you always try to do everything done to the detail.
Hi, I love your videos! I have a balcony in my apt. Can you do more videos on this smoker! It seems perfect for me, but what is the biggest thing you can cook on it? Where can I get it for $150 dollars? Thank you!
Very nice🍴🍽
Great demo. Have a question. By coincidence on FB marketplace, a small pellet cooker showed up from Country Smokers. From my viewing of the smoker, it appears to be almost, if not completely, identical in design to the ASMOKE. The Country Smokers version is called The Traveler. Any association between ASMOKE and Country Smokers?
Literally almost exactly the same!
Wow I like that u should cook a small brisket or a tri tip
nice knife greg
This really fits my space , condo life

Brazilians really know their barbecue. You should do a collab with Guga.
that would be tight, and they can smoke a fat joint of some kush together 👍
Does the fan on your asmoke stay on the entire time you are smoking? Turns off after the start up but I noticed a lot of videos with this product seemed to still have that torchy roar well through the cook.
I'm sold. That's a ridiculous price point for the functionality
I have a GMG i love it
Will you give us an update on this unit, say 20 cooks from now, regarding any warping with the baffle plate on the inside of this asmoke cooker? It looks really thin and chinsy, and if it warps it could lead to uneven cooking or burn spots in the outer shell.thanks Greg.
It has a 5 yr warranty
I honestly don't see this warping based on the temps I was running it on this cook, but I will update you.
@@BallisticBBQ I'd be interested in knowing how well the paint holds up, especially the underside of the lid.
Cool beans ill get one
I did as you asked and hammered that thumbs down button, twice!😉
Seriously though, appreciate all the videos that you pump out!
I would assume the latches on the lid are just for travel. Looks great though!!
how hot does the outer shell of the BBQ get? I see a lot in videos where people are constantly touching the surface. Id like to be able to use on a plastic folding table without risk of melting table or worse when camping. also would be nice to be able to store away back in camper asap when done with use.
I was thinking of getting one. How hot does the underside get. What kind of table can I put it on? Thank You in advance.
Howdy Ballistic BBQ. Didn't see a visable temp prob inside the grill that feeds temp data to the controller. Did I miss it in the video presentaion? Thanks for your great channel, brother. Subscribed.
It is in the back left and covered so it is easy to miss.
@@Moondoggy1941 Thanks, Jim, for the temp probe location. Also, thanks for great content and techniques 👍.
I'm finding the Asmoke is great
@@rocket4602 Me, I am a fan just like you, I have seen a few videos on this cooker and yes it looks great.
I'm working on moving out of my parents and getting a small flat. something like this would be perfect (if i'm able to get a small garden/balcony)
TKS
*Hey Greg Looks like a nice product man. It would be killer for some camping trips for sure. I just reviewed a small traveling grill/oven on my channel and it was awesome. This would be a nice companion, no doubt. Cheers brother and thanks for giving us a look see.*
Can you post up how much of your pellet supply in the hopper that cook went through?
Thank you Greg, this is more me as far as the grill goes, the steak not so much, beef has gone through the roof as of late.. Love the vid though!
I know you will not get to test this at temps below 20 deg F, I wonder how it it would work?
Miếng thịt ngon quá ạ
The audio was fine Greg!
They should use these for kids q events at bbq competitions
How long to you sear each side and did you close the lit while searing ?
Greg, I just bought a rec tec 700 and a rec tec Bullseye what do you think of those 2 pellet grills 🤔🥩
