Has anyone done any modifications on the expert grill…gas grill/pellet smoker? I want to add a rotisserie. If so thanks.
Just got one for $150 at walmart
Bought one and it keeps saying elr and I get get no one to help me , bad business
Just got mine for $100 at Walmart on clearance!
Well i just bought it on clearance for $96
I have this one, I don’t have to set it 25 degrees hotter
Do you have any information on the Expert 28 inch pellet grill, not the commadore?
Mine is pretty good, and overall worth it for a first time pellet smoker like myself. I will say, I’ve had issues with the auger jamming up and me losing 150 degrees, then it suddenly catches back up after about an hour or so, and have even had it flame up once. I called the manufacturer and they were very helpful and have sent me new parts, as it has been under two years since I’ve had it.
What can you put on the bottom plate below the grates to prevent it from rusting?
Thanks for this very thorough overview. Much appreciated.
I would not buy again, inconsistent. And doesn't put out much smoke. I'll stick with Masterbuilt.
Always have solid results with my Commodore
Just got it for $75. figure can't go wrong. On the spot buy
This guy is obnoxious with detail.
I have had mine since it was introduced. In the first month the auger quit, I was sent a new auger and control panel for free. The temp has always been off, I have learned to adjust for it. I part I hate is cleaning the ash pot. You have to remove the grates, the greasy grease tray, the heat shed just to get to the ash pot. I use this grill year round. I have even used it in 30 degree weather on the pavilion in the snow watching it from the hot tub with no problems, just fix the cleaning issue and temp and I would call it a winner. But I hat cleaning it so much I am picking up a vertical pit boss. Sorry expert grill, maybe next time
Got this today for $99 on clearance. 1st ever pellet grill. Anyone have recommendations on pellets?
Just bought mine for $99. Bucks
Got one for $99 + tax at my local Walmart. Gonna hopefully fire it up soon.

Me and a coworker bought one today on clearance at Walmart for $105 each after tax. Hopefully I’ll be using mine soon.

I have an Android phone and cannot use the app without downloading another app and pay a monthly fee of $19.99 per month
Just picked one of these up from Walmart on clearance for $137, excited to put it to use. Great info on the temperature inconsistencies and I will definitely be using an additional cooker temp unit.
