I watched several You Tubers that recommended the Z Grill. They were not wrong. The quality of craftsmanship is apparent in every aspect of the 1100 2B. Assembly is easy and my first smoke was amazing with an outstanding smoke ring and minimal effort. I highly recommend this smoker. The only negative I've seen with it is the method of emptying the hopper is difficult and leaves quite a few pellets in the grill. Everything else about it is top notch!

The grill didn't come with everything they offered when purchased. Getting a hold of any kind of customer care takes an act of God and the luck of 17 Irishmen . The grill is nice but is a real pain to get the app up and running. The grill arrived with pellets that were saturated and the grill box had black mold all along the bottom like it sat outside for months. Would I do it again? No .

I absolutely enjoy cooking on this grill. I replaced my electric smoker with this and does a great job for low and slow, as well as some high heat searing and general grilling. Was able to get sear marks via a reverse smoke / sear on some chicken. Only thing I wish could be changed in the software, is when pressing “prime” that you don’t have to hold the button and could automatically prime the full auger length and expedite getting pellets into the fire pot. I do this now by just holding the prime button on start up for 2 minutes. Works pretty well!

Purchased recently. Havn't cooked yet but assembled and did the seasoning/burn off. Held temp withing 5 degrees even at 500 fir 30 minutes. Wi-Fi difficult but remember, after account set-up put in your Wi-Fi password not your account password and you should be paired. Decent amount of smoke during burn-off better than my Traeger Fremont which has minimal smoke. Didn't try super smoke however so it should do even better. I'll try to update after cooking some brisket and pulled pork.

Overall love the smoker. Would give it a 5, but the welds on the handle that you use to maneuver the grill are weak. Mine broke first day. Another point of frustration is that you cannot purchase once as it is out of stock. Grill is very heavy, but manageable. Would buy again and recommend to others.

This is an amazing product. The results are on point and ease of operation makes a first time pellet smoker owner look like a champ. Assembly is a breeze and start up relatively simple. The only shortcoming is the WiFi connection and app. I’m still working through that at week 3 but have had several smokes that came out flawlessly the difficulty monitoring the cook using the application.

A beautiful piece of equipment. Probably the best built I’ve seen to date. Very easy and holds temp well. Maybe add a couple of hooks, front or back, to hang the grates when not using for that cook! Just an idea. I have added them to my smoker on the front. Perfect!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My new 11002B is an awesome grill. On a windy day recently I was smoking wings, it struggled to get to 400 degrees. Since then I have done wings again and it seemed fine, just some time to get to that 400 degrees.

Installation was pretty straight forward. Pellets that cam with grill burn relatively clean with little clean up. I applied heavy duty foil to drip try and bottom of grill for easy clean up. I have now done a spatchcock turkey, burgers, and a prime rib. All of these were done in December with below freezing conditions. Holds temperature very well even in the cold weather. Everything has come out perfect and tasted great. The WIFI app was easy to install and setup was easy. No issues using my phone to set temps or shut off grill from phone. My only complaint is I wish the temperature probes that come with the grill could be set at temperatures below 160F. Medium rare items at 125-140F you just have to watch the probe temps but can't take advantage of the alert system within the app. Not a huge deal but would have been nice.

I love this grill. It cooks even and maintains temps excellently. The build took 30 min but did require assistance due to the weight. This is a good thing! I’m hoping in the future that ZGrills create a drip pan that can also allow for open flame searing with the unit. This is a spectacular smoker.
