In today's video we are talking the Pit Boss Pro Series 1600 vs the Weber SmokeFire pellet grill, and which one I would buy if I could only pick one. My goal with this video was to help educate you on the differences between the Pit Boss and the Weber, and to share with you which one I would buy and why if I could only pick one. Now, both the Pit Boss and Weber pellet grills are fantastic, and I have cooked some amazing food on both, but in the end...only one met my needs and I will explain the reason for that. See the specs below for more information, and as always thank you so much for watching, and feel free to drop a comment with any questions!
