Pellet grills are a class of grills that use compressed real wood pellets to generate heat and smoke to what you are cooking. Pellet grills make true BBQ smoking available to most people, because in general they all have electronic starters, they have a thermostat which will keep the grill at your setting.
Best Overall Pellet Grill
This pellet grill doesn't come cheap, however it provides enough space to be able to cook/grill/smoke a family meal. Additionally it has the update controller, more convection downdraft exhaust, and can reach higher temperatures (500°) enough to sear a good steak. This is our choice for best overall pellet grill.

Best Overall Pellet Grill Runner up
It has to be this one. This is a very good if you don't want to shell out the cash for the Ironwood, it is roughly the same size, it doesn't have the downdraft convection, and instead has a chimney exhaust. It's max temp is 450°, and it has been updated with the Pro D2 Controller, which does include Wifire, and Traeger App Support. All in all a really great grill.
