    I get you @PirateBill

    I was really considering a pellet grill and was researching all the different brands when I realized they cost almost as much as an Egg. So I decided to go the egg route. I wouldn't turn down a pellet grill but I think I can do without one. At this point I would rather have a Blackstone.

    I agree that was a great commercial. They almost had me right up until the 3 year warranty. For $900 I would expect a little more on the warranty. 

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    Would this be for grilling or smoking?  Just wondering.

    @SmokeyPitt -  I'm with you but the target audience quite likely doesn't think that's a negative as I doubt the level of research that a potential buyer will conduct puts a lot of value on the warranty.  But I could be wrong.

    More of s smoker than a grill as it isn't easy to go direct on most pellet grills. Weird thing is that pellet grills don't usually import a lot of smoke flavor into the meat. or at least not in the consumer grade models.

    @Hntnhrd I just spit out my lunch when I heard him say that. That should be a tattoo.

    Upon further review-that commercial will definitely attract those who are in the undecided category.  Hits the key points with a goodly dose of humor and making a foil of the vegan just drives it home.  Add agency gold star.  I'm sure the term "Grill God" is tossed around these parts with relative impunity.  Have a great weekend-

    This wasn't funny the first time you made fun of the guy. Why the hell would you think it would be funny on the 5th time? Give it a rest dude. We wanna see the "work" not the horse beating.

    Awesome commercial!  So many great lines.  The Tofu goddess was icing on the cake.

    So simple a computer can run it. Implies the need for a power source. Does it run on batteries or does it require access to 120V AC?
    3 years? Outdoor? 
    Love the Comercial. Outstanding.
    Think I will keep with my thousand year old ceramic technology. The food from it is Grill God worthy.
    Thanks for posting, enjoyed it.

    @YukonRon pellet grills require AC power and a 3 year warranty is pretty standard on the consumer grade models (i.e. Traeger, Green Mountain etc.).

    You guys are missing the most important part! The Vegan Goddess is... Jaclyn Hales!! Have some bacon? =) 

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!
