There aren't many portable pellet smokers and the PTG (Portable Traeger Grill) is the smallest we've reviewed. With 169 square inches of cook surface and about 6 inches of head room, cooking possibilities are limited. Still this unique little cooker has some useful applications and earns our AmazingRibs.com Silver Medal.

Weber electric grills get pretty hot so we award them our AmazingRibs.com Silver Medal. Our review describes Q 2400's two aluminum heat retention liners that prevent heat from escaping. Additionally, the conductive properties of coated cast iron grates on all Q models help produce good sear marks.

We reviewed the Q 1400, Weber's small, portable electric grill. These Q electrics get hotter than many other brands. Weber attributes this to two interior, aluminum heat retention liners that prevent heat from escaping. Also, the conductive properties of coated cast iron grates on all Q models help make tasty sear marks.
