There are lots of websites/etc claiming to tell you this is the best pellet smoker etc. However, the reality is the answer is constantly changing with new products coming onto the market. Also, the answer will depend on your own personal circumstances and budget.

To actually provide a practical means and unbiased solution to answer the best pellet grill/smoker question, I created the PelHeat Database so anyone, no matter your needs and budget, can quickly research your available options.

As a starting point, you need to think about what your priorities are. Do you need a large cooking area? Are you equally interested in smoking and grilling foods, or is one more important to you than the other?

Making decisions on these questions will help you to decide, for instance, if a horizontal pellet grill/smoker or vertical pellet smoker will be a better suit for you. It will also help you to decide if you need a pellet grill with direct flame access for better grilling, but if you're more interested in smoking food, that's a feature that won't be important to you.

All those potential considerations and options you can factor in when searching our database to truly find the best pellet grill for you.
