Weber Smoque???????? Did Weber misspell the name of their Pellet grill?

[Bruce]

Nope, This is a new one. I had not heard of this model before but I noticed on their web page. Since I don't follow the pellet grills very closely, it is possible this is common knowledge, but I don't remember hearing about it. Last I heard the Weber SmokeFire was replaced by the SearWood, but now this? I am guessing it is in relation to the Weber Blackstone merger.

There is a BBQ joint in Chicago called Smoque.
Maybe the folks at Weber tried it and liked it enough to use the name.

That is the newest model sort of a budget alternative to the Searwood

I have bern there. It was top drawer - but pricey - when I went years ago,

Just looking at the Yoder YS480S. It looks like a well built unit. Is it bulletproof and built to last?

 

[Chris Allingham]

I assume it's misspelled so the product name can be trademarked, as you see with so many other product names.

I think that's what my former client manager had. He was quite happy with it.

Yoders are top notch

Larry have you tried one?

No (too rich for my blood LOL) but it's a quality heavy built product. If I could afford it I'd buy it. There is that other one bult like a tank here in the US but again way too much for this fixed income old fart

 

[Jon Tofte]

One of my friends in Florida has one and loves it. Built like a tank, but it is kept in his screened in pool patio, and given the pool and Florida humidity, it is not exempt from rust.

$200 and $300 cheaper than the comparative Searwood models.
Slightly smaller, and no searing capabilities. More of a typical
pellet smoker and in the lower price range where the majority
of the competition lives.

As an outsider, I find english spelling discussions funny. Smoque to me is as wrong as the average english word

E: Smoque is wrong, but less wrong than Aluminum.

What's wrong with aluminum?

I think (at least in the UK) it's ALUMINIUM.
