Hi I am new this group. I currently own a Webber smokey mountain 18.5. I am looking to purchase either a mak 1 star general or the fast eddy pg 500. I was looking for opinions on both. Thanks.
I have the pg500. I can't compare it to the MAK, but it is both a great smoker and great grill. The grill does some of the best steaks I have ever done. It is also great at burgers or chicken thighs in zone 4. No worries about flame ups.
You can fit 2 butts or a couple of small briskets easily. The grill over the open flame holds 4 ribeyes or 8-10 thighs.
I am sure the mak is great too, but you won't go wrong with the pg500
Good morning and welcome to the forum, from a nice chilly, windy day in East Texas, and the best site on the web. Lots of great people with tons of information on just about everything.
