I bought the 1120B model for my husband as an anniversary gift. Because cooking meat is his hobby, there’s a number of grills and smokers around the patio, but this one was his holy grail (holy grill?) Every time he walks in from slathering another layer of sauce, he vocalizes how much he loves it.

Set up was fairly quick, instructions helped too. Burn in was simple and the first cook turned out great. Super smoke mode works amazing. Can’t wait to keep cooking on it this summer.

Initial cook off temperatures windchill was 20 degrees below zero, minus 2 Super Bowl Saturday. First cook, mexican street corn and 2" ribeye steaks, windchill was 30 below zero and minus 5 on Super Bowl Sunday. This did not discourage me from raving the elements and asking a great deal from my new 'Beast'! Searing was toughest, as every time you opened lid to turn and/or flip steaks, significant heat was lost. My Beast got the job done, despite the adversity. Temperature got to 500 degrees in the elements within 40 minutes. When I dropped the temperature down to 250 after searing, the Beast held steady at 250 for most of the time. Low of 248, high of 255. Considering the elements, this is outstanding! I have yet to set up the wi-fi option; I am waiting for the temperature to rise above zero degrees. Very pleased with performance at this time. One small hiccup, super smoke only works at 160 degrees. When I set it to super smoke for halibut on Saturday night, the temperature dropped and the unit automatically shut off due to low temperature. Would like the super smoke option to happen around 190-220 for slow smoking. However, this is not a reason not to acquire this Beast. I would change the name of this unit officially on your website to "Beast" instead of multitasker. In the bar-b--que/smoking world, Beast is not offensive. Keep up the great job!

1st cook was at -13 degrees and stayed within degrees of set temp.easy put together and quality is what I hoped for. So far feel like money well spent on the 11002b multi tasker.nothing like taking a nap while cooking.completly giving up the offset.
