Backyard Beast 1000

[azray007]

Happy early Thanksgiving everyone!

I have a RT-340 Trailblazer. It's just a bit too small for me. I've been wanting to upgrade for a while. The Backyard Beast 1000 caught my eye. I've been looking and haven't found any reviews listed on the RecTeq site or any BB 1000 owner reviews here.

If you own one, please post a reply. I'd love to hear what you think of it.

Thanks!!

Right now the 1100 is on sale and only a few bucks more. I don’t know anything about either of them.

It's odd that one of the new grills doesn't have any feedback on the site nor on the RecTeq forum. Surely they've sold s. me.

I can assure you, the reviews on the RT site will be all positive

I would think so as well. I was hoping for some owner experience before driving down to Evans, GA.

Am I mistaken or didn’t these just come out last month?

They did. I was hoping some new proud owner would give their initial feedback.

Hello,

I am waiting delivery of my RT1000 Backyard Beast. I have posted a copy of a review I found on line.

More Info

The Backyard Beast is focused on delivering high-quality food in large quantities without needing to pay a premium, clocking in at just over $1000 for 1014 square inches of cooking space. Everything you expect to find in a recteq pellet grill is here: stainless steel construction, black powder-coated lid, and stainless steel bull horns.

That cooking space is split across two stainless steel cooking grates and can hold 50 burgers, eight racks of ribs, and up to nine pork butts. The Backyard Beast will be big enough for even the biggest summer parties and has a 30lb pellet hopper to ensure you can keep the smoke rolling for as long as needed.

The grill has a temperature range of 180°-700°F controlled by a Wi-Fi-enabled PID controller. You can use the two included meat thermometer probes to monitor internal temperatures right alongside keeping an eye on the grill itself using the recteq app. The Backyard Beast is backed by a six-year warranty.

What We Like…

Large pellet hopper capacity

Big cooking area

Wi-Fi connectivity

What Makes Us Angry…

Nothing really. It’s got a good set of features that isn’t exorbitantly priced.
