I need to acquire a new fuel source to fuel my new Two Star.

You can't go wrong with Lumberjack Pellets! BBQ Delight is my second choice.
I want to try Cookin Pellets but still sitting on a pile of LJ.

If anyone talks to Caleb, tell him to get his advertising dept. going on the apparel section of their website! We need MAK logo'd t-shirts, decals, laser engraved Yeti's etc. I know they are busy cranking out awesome grills but I would love to advertise the brand with some swag (and yes I'll be happy to pay for it!).

You’re in?!?! Welcome to the MAK family! Ask 10 people for their opinion on pellets and you’re likely to get 7-8 different opinions. I’ve been using Bear Mountain and have had great success with them. I had issues with LJ but many swear by them. I am currently tryin a bag of BBQ’rs Delight and so far so good. What options do you have locally?

Green Mountain, Traeger or HomComfort. Not much.

Traeger = no way
HomComfort = I know nothing about
Green Mountain = I have heard good things about

I’d try a bag of the GM after you burn through the Bear Mountain that’ll come with the MAK and see whatcha think.

You gonna sell the KBQ?

It sure has, and I've appreciated all of them. :thumb: I'd send you my first tri tip or St. Louis rib rack but it would get cold in transit. :wink: Plus, I gotta practice.

The KBQ will be for sale as soon as I give it a good clean and polish. It's only got eight cooks on it but could still use a bit of shine.

Only 8 cooks... man, I guess you haven’t had time. There are some weekends where my MAK runs almost non-stop. I call those good weekends :)

Thanks Crispy Bacon and rwalters for getting this going and everyone else! Appreciate the info along the way. I won’t lie it stung a little pulling the trigger on an expensive pellet grill since I’ve had little experience with them to date.

Customer service was great and Caleb was super cool! Counting the days now...

tom b 03-02-2020 06:18 PM

it is sounding like we are going to need a new appreciation thread...

Cangrats to all the new purchasers!

Robb must have some good commission credits stocked up for his next purchase

I know, it's embarrassing. I tried ribs, and chicken, and then moved just to reverse-sear steaks because the cook is so short. I can make an awesome steak with the KBQ, searing it over the firebox. If I lived in the country and could sit out and drink some beers while tending the fire, I would enjoy that. Now, I'm just too busy with too many things to do. One day... :wink:

But with the MAK, that will change!
