Product Spotlight

Green Mountain Grills Trek Portable Smoker

My tri-tip was a big hit at Field Day, and everyone was asking about my smoker.
It is a Green Mountain Grills Davy Crocket, the newer model is called the Trek.
The smoker is pellet fed, with an electric igniter. It runs on 12V DC and aslo comes with a 120V adapter. I like the footprint and features of this one, over other similar models. It has a larger pellet capacity, so you can do a 6 hour rib roast without adding more pellets. It does have a low pellet alarm, just in case you need to add some. It can be operated from the front panel, or via its Wi-Fi app. From there, you can control the grill temperature and monitor the food probe temperature. You can also set the smoker temperature and cooking profile. It will go from a low temp smoking at 150 deg F up to a searing temperature of 550 deg F. There is enough surface area to smoke 2 tri-tips at the same time. I have also done whole chickens, rib roasts, and pork ribs. The Pellets used for the trip-tip, at Field Day, were Bear Mountain BBQ Woods Gourmet, a blend of Oak, Hickory, Maple, and Cherry hardwoods.
