I have a green mountain grill. The smallest one. It’s portable so I bring it with me camping and it plugs right into the cigarette lighter. Very convenient and very low power draw. I’ve smoked meats for 12 hours and my truck fired right up at the end of it.

If you’re only thinking of smoking and grilling fish, what you currently have is sufficient. But if you want to turn it on and walk away for 12 hours and come back to perfectly smoked brisket/ribs/prime rib/etc, then I would upgrade to a pellet smoker. All the while the meat is cooking you have a digital readout of the temperature of the meat on your phone. You can set the grill to turn off when the meat reaches a certain temperature, you really have no Excuse to mess things up.

I’ve been told Traeger controller boards go out frequently which is why I went GMG, as did my brother in law and ours have worked flawlessly for years. Company has great customer service as well.
