Saw a woodwind pro 36 at bass pro marked down to $900 since it was a floor model they were getting rid of. I used to smoke on a WSM, and a little experience on an offset too but that was before kids when I had more time. Looking forward to getting back into BBQ since it's been a few years and it seemed like the pellet smoker was the way to go having 2 kids under the age of 3 and not much time to devote to it.
Any tips for a someone new to pellet grills?

Congratulations! I absolutely LOVE mine!!
As for advice, just remember that you get the most smoke “flavor” at the very beginning of the smoke when the meat is at its coolest point. Really make sure you keep up with your wood-chunks during this time and you will get the most out of your smoker!
Very nice. I’ve got a Weber Q and a kettle. I like smoking but with 2 young kind I don’t really have all day to tend to the kettle when smoking. I need an easier option and the Woodwind Pro seems like it’s one of the best options for pellet smoking with good smoke performance. The Searwood looks good but if I keep my Q I don’t really need a smoker to have searing capabilities.
Damn $900!!!!!! Run with it.
I’ve had mine for 3 years and it’s 10/10
I got mine for 1100 and thought I got a steal! Nice find! Best pellet grill on the market imo.
I got mine a few months ago and I love this thing. Just remember to use quality pellets and make sure to use good wood chunks in the first 3 hours or so. I like to use Lumberjack pellets, I typically just use the Competition blend. I throw a few wood chunks into the box, open the box half way and just let it burn and I refill it every hour or so with a chunk or two.
I’m still smoking shit in 20 degree weather but I really cant wait for the spring so I can start smoking more frequently and trying out more things. Makes the best pulled pork Ive ever had
