PK Grills Portable Charcoal BBQ Grill and Smoker, Cast Aluminum Outdoor Kitchen Barbecue Grill for Camping, Backyard Grilling, Park, Tailgating, Teal, ​​New Original PK Aaron Franklin Addition

I have now had this grill just a little less of a full year. I went with the turquoise because let’s face it, it’s pretty. I use it a minimum of once a week. I have experimented cooking everything from your typical grill/smoke meat to chocolate chip cookies. Everything has come out perfect. Other than growing up and watching my father and brother grill and smoke I have absolutely no experience using a grill or smoker but found the PK very easy to control the temperature and use. I took a few stars off the for easy to assemble since I personally did not find it easy. Someone who is more familiar with all the different types of bolts and screws would have no problems but I could have used some assembly directions for dummies.I actually enjoy this grill sooooo much that I am considering upgrading to the PK360. I would recommend this grill/smoker to anyone even someone who has never lit charcoal in their life. In the beginning you experiment with different types and brands of charcoal and different woods for smoking. Once you find out what you like to use then using this grill is as easy as using the oven. Yes, I am convinced that anything you would cook in an oven could be cooked on the PK grill.

The cooking performance and flexibility is good. The AF features: the table on the hinge side is mostly covered by the lid when opened, so not as useful as it may seem; the tray holders underneath are useful and a nordicware baker’s half sheet fits perfectly; the bar on the front is good for hanging tongs off, the little tray less so. The coloured finish on the metal parts is being adversely affected by the weather in Singapore and starting to bubble and flake off. The grill is corroding after 12 months use or so but there’s a bit of user neglect contributing and it’s a consumable item. Worth getting the raiser racks that expand the cooking space. Buying now - I’d be thinking very hard about whether the 360 is a better machine.

I have a PK grill and use for my competition steak cooks. However, the PK grill that I have would benefit greatly if it were to have the upgraded features that the PK300AF has. I am sure that it will produce some award winning steaks. The best thing about this purchase was the service that I received from the seller. The Outdoor Home Store is a10+ retailer. I highly recommend them for your grilling needs.

Broken parts. No option for part to be replaced. Only option was to return fully assembled grill.

This is a great grill. 5 stars. They were able to match their prices on their website but(here's why I rated it 3) it didn't come with the same items included if I would have purchased on their site. A friend of mine bought the same grill on the pk website and it came with the grill cover. Not sure why the package would be any different if I purchased it here. It still comes from PK.
