Best Gift to Buy to be the Favorite Child: A Pellet Grill
If your dad doesn’t yet have a grill, buying him a pellet grill for Father’s Day is sure to make you his favorite child (even if he won’t admit it)! Pellet grills are very different from your traditional barbeque, so don’t rule it out even if he dons his apron to grill a couple of burgers on a barbeque at the weekends throughout the summer.
How Does a Barbeque and Pellet Grill Differ?
Most people own barbeques that are powered by gas or charcoal, which are great fuels if you want to blast something with heat for a short time, for less than an hour. They’re great for grilling burgers, hot dogs, corn, and anything else that doesn’t need a lot of time cooking.
A pellet grill, on the other hand, is designed to maintain a constant, lower temperature over time. This makes it ideal for smoking and barbequing any kind of food, but they really shine when cooking bigger cuts such as brisket, ribs, whole or half chicken or turkey, and more.
