    OK, I have to decide...before she changes her mind...my wife gave me the go-ahead for a pellet grill!

    My local BBQ store will sell me a Blaz'n Grand Slam from Blaz'n Grill Works for $950 cash. Or, I could go to Costco and get a Louisiana 900 with cold smoker box for $800. Thoughts? Advice? Admonitions?

    I am not familiar with either of these but it sounds like a good position to be in. Win! Win!

      I don't know much about those brands, but I do love my Traeger.

        Sorry, I am a Yoder man. All I know is that pellet smoking has changed my game for the better

          I would take the Blazin everyday of the week and twice on Sunday! Much heavier construction and build quality.

          I know that Jerod Broussard loves his......I think.

            +1 on Blazin’. I’ve seen the Louisiana ones and was not very impressed.

          My brother recently purchased a Blaz'n and has been very satisfied so far. Interactions with the owner has been very positive; unit arrived well packed for protection. Overall build quality is very high.
          I probably would've bought the same if I hadn't found a killer deal on a one year old MAK 2 Star.

            I vote for the Blaz'n also. Very good choice. I'm not personally into cold smoking at all, so again, go for the Blaz'n :-)

              The moderators have spoken. Blaz’n grandslam it is.
              Be sure to show us pics when you get it home. 👍

                  I just ordered a Grand Slam this past week ... You're getting a great deal at that price for a Grand Slam, enjoy the new toy!

                        Definitely Blaz'n. Better quality, better warranty, better service. Made in the USA.

                          Blaz'n will not disappoint you. I've had a Grand Slam for about 18 months and love it. At that price you can't go wrong.

                            I just got my Blaz’n Grid Iron last week. Only two cooks so far but it’s great. I decided on the Blaz’n after reading all Jerod’s write ups. It’s very well built and Tim at Blaz’n is very helpful with any questions.
