Title: Gator Pits
Post by: GatorDave on June 18, 2018, 09:35:01 AM: I came across this company over the weekend. Gator Pits is out of Texas, and mostly makes stick burners, but they do make pellet grills as well. They use the pellet pro controller for their pits. They are made from 1/4" thick steel and their 20x36 pit weighs almost 400 pounds.

Havenâ€™t had a need to go any higher but it will. Mostly do pork and brisket with it. Very well made and built like a tank.

The reason I got this one was for all the room inside. Just what the doctor ordered for me.
