Love that new grill

Got a Searwood 600 about 4 days ago. Got to admit, so far, it's everything I hoped it would be.
Instead of the biscuit test I did the beef jerky test. I had the entire grill covered with jerky from side to side and
front to back. 200 degrees for 45 min and everything was done perfect. Didn't appear to have any real hot
spots. Also did some burgers the other day and they were also great.
Supreme Commander says -- it's a keeper! Which is a good thing, I already sold the Green Mountain. :)

Keep us all updated. I am assuming this is the smaller version?
 
Yes, it is the 24".
Lots of grilling space, especially with 2nd shelf. When not in use there are a couple of small hooks on back of grill to hang it. Really handy little idea by designers.
 
Am considering a Searwood but unsure whether to go with 24" or 36". Does the upper rack of the 24" have sufficient space for brisket or racks of ribs?
 
I am sure either one will have plenty of space for a single brisket. If needing to do more than one brisket or multiple racks likely the 36" would be in order. One school of thought is "go big or go home" :D
Keep in mind the larger grill will use more fuel. Exaggerated a bit in colder weather I am sure. Let your heart and budget decide what's best.
 
I bought the large Smokefire when it came out, and despite Harry Soo’s success, I had nothing but problems. When it worked, it worked well and the smoke flavor was unmatched. I ended up selling it for cheap just to get rid of it because it always had problems. That was $1400 down the drain. I like the new Searwood design a lot, but I’m a bit apprehensive about dropping another grand or more on a pellet cooker. I would love to see your results and learn your candid assessment of it.

Have you contacted Weber customer service? I was an early adopter as well, but I talked to customer service and did little bit of whining, but they are sending me a Searwood in exchange for my old Smokefire EX4. I say whining, but I pointed out that I paid over 1000 and now I have a piece of junk. It had to get escalated a few times, but they finally gave in.
