Pro Tips and Techniques

Expert Advice

The expert advice blog is where the ATBBQ team shares what they know — and they know a lot. Chef Tom and the crew have spent years cooking on, testing, and selling the best grills, smokers, and outdoor living equipment available. What ends up here is practical: how to set up and season a new grill, how to troubleshoot a cook that's going sideways, what to look for when you're choosing between two pellet grills, how to build an outdoor kitchen from scratch. If you cook outside or want to, this is worth bookmarking.
