Gonna bump the thread. As I mentioned in the Father's Day 2023 thread I'm looking to get my dad a new grill. We left his old one at his former house since it was in rough shape. Looking for a combo grill that does gas and charcoal, with possibly a pellet attachment for smoking. Looked at a few, like the Char-Grill at Lowes, Pit Boss, and the Oklahoma Joe that was suggested. Gotta say, reading the reviews I'm pretty discouraged. A lot of them are deteriorating quickly, like parts breaking, paint flaking, rusting, etc. Those are all recent reviews with only a handful of uses, or a month or two.
So, I wanted to keep my budget low, but the step-mom said she kick in 50%, up to $500. So that gives me a budget of $1000, and this will serve as a Father's Day / 80th birthday present.
Does anyone have suggestions?
