Sams Club Pro 5 Burner Grill with Oven Thermo control

[phecksel]

Needed a grill for our snow bird site. I love my weber stainless at our home. Thing has been rock solid performer for well over a decade. It wasn't cheap when I bought it, and price is a lot worse now.

Went back and forth on several different units, go cheap, knowing parts would need to be replaced in 2-3 years, or spend a bunch of money on another weber.

kind of went to a compromise, not quite weber, not quite junk Bought it sight unseen, and it was delivered by truck to the house. Link to the unit at the bottom of the page.
Some of the advantages over the Weber

• Oven Mode
• Viewing Window
• 304 Stainless grate
• 5 burners total 61,500 BTU
• Ceramic infared side burner, 13,000 BTU
• Med duty cover

Took me about 2.5 hours to assemble. Parts, including fasteners, were extremely well identified. I did snap the cover over the side burner ignighter. I'll have to get that replaced, but that was my assembly issue. It is definitely a solid well constructed unit.

Biggest issue, in oven mode, it's about 50F higher than the setting. I'll contact them to see if there's an adjustment screw somewhere. I'm getting the knob temporarily marked so my wife can use the oven mode. Not sure if high ambient temps (115F) effect the temperature controls, I'd think not.

1) That grill has actually been written about by Amazing Ribs!

2) My last gasser was a Member’s Mark, it lasted about 15 years. I rebuilt the insides twice, the third time it wasn’t worth it. But it was a damn good grill.

I looked and didn't see that review.

All of a sudden, the oven temp is rock solid on target... it's like it needed to be broken in???

Did your outside temps drop when it became accurate? 115 is abnormally hot, so I suspect this may play a part. Also, you had 115 in MI??

a buddy of mine had a Members Mark built in grill for his outdoor kitchen and he loved it. He researched for quite some time before landing on it as well, so you should be in a great spot!
