Monk: In a podcast accompanying the recent post on The 10 Best Pellet Smokers and Grills You Can Buy in 2021 by Gear Patrol’s home and drinks editor Will Price, he discusses the benefits of pellet grills and smokers as well as his picks with Nick Caruso. Though I have to say, I’m a bit skeptical on the grilling/smoking credentials of someone who lives in Brooklyn. Not because of the Brooklyn of it all, but because he won’t have a true backyard for testing out these grills. In any case, take his recommendations with that in mind.
Description: Pellet grills have been around only since the mid-Eighties and feature precision computer controls: a super low-effort alternative to charcoal and gas grills.
