Fun comparison! I think my choice would depend on what other grills I had, if any. I wouldn't want to give up the capacity of the Weber if that was my only grill, but if I had another similar grill then I would absolutely choose the Huntsman. As you said, it comes down to live fire cooking with charcoal!

Since I already have a Weber kettle grill, I would keep the Searwood. Just need to buy one first.

That's definitely a difficult decision, Johnny. I'd probably keep the Huntsman, too. I think I'm down to 6 or 7🤔 different pellet grills, all with their unique differences 😂

Gotta be honest, there is no way in hell that pellets beat charcoal if it’s done properly. I don’t have a Sear-wood but I do have a bullseye pellet grill and it does well but my huntsman / W-Kettle both produce unmatched flavor and it’s not even close. 🤠

It's odd that you based the results on grilling, since I see 2 other grills that a capable of grilling in the backgound. Seems like you'd want to keep the Searwood for space and ease of use on the days you do have the time or want to, to mess with charcoal. That being said, I woud have kept the huntsman as well. I do not own a pellet smoker, but theres too much that could possible go wrong all of the electronics. Nicly done sir!! looking forward to the next video.

I think comparing these two is spot on. In my small back yard, I would want one cooker. I bought the Searwood before the Huntsman came out, and it works very well for me. I added casters, which should have come with it. I’ve used a smokebox with charcoal and wood chunks to get better smoke flavor and am happy enough with it. That said, if I were buying now, I think I would go with the Huntsman. I would also consider the Weber Kamado, but I think it’s generally at a considerably higher price point.

Being kind of a charcoal "purist" and the fact that 90% of the time, it's just my wife and I, I went with the 22" Huntsman. I have done cooks for friends and I am amazed at what I can pack on that little Spider though. Just did a 16lb Turkey on it and had plenty of clearance. No need to spatchcock it. And it was the best turkey I ever made on any grill. But due to size, I can see why the Spider Huntsman isn't for everyone.

Being that you already have a weber kettle, I figured you would keep the pellet grill because you can already handle your grilling with the kettle. I have 2 22" kettles, a kamado joe jr, a jumbo joe for portability, and a Traeger 34 to cover most of my bases. Also have a Blackstone but that's completely different.
