Haha!! Purple Lion 🦁!! So amazing fam, we love this!! BTW, the front two copper hooks are to hang the racks if not in use (for a large cook, if you need more headroom) - very convenient! The Austin XL is dead sexy, and I think will continue to be the best-selling Pit Boss unit! Much love fam, this was awesome!! #LETSGO #PITBOSSNATION🔥🔥

My son bought this about a year ago and loves it! I spent time with them last summer and have wanted one since... Hubby had been saying we needed to replace our Grill and our wood smoker has been a royal pain trying to keep at the right temperatures as well as keeping it fueled. I am the one who grills and smokes everything. I am disabled due to my back so the smoker was torture... Mentally and Physically! I finally ordered the Pit boss today. She is replacing 1 large propane grill and a smaller one in addition to the offset wood smoker... The truck is loaded to drop all off at the dump so we can bring this beautiful baby home tomorrow morning! I have the ribs in the fridge daughter n law and son are going to face time us to help get our new baby set up and cooking. The reason I was watching the Video was to find out if the drip bucket came with this grill?

03/13/2024 - Purple Lion - Thanks for the REAL review of the features offered on the "new" Austin XL. I have had my Pit Boss 800+ sq in grill for over 5 years now, has smoked every meat known to man on it. Up until late last year (Nov) have hardly had any problems with it except a few fires from my own fault of not cleaning as often as I should. But, the controller has finally went ka-put and the rest in my burn pot is pretty bad (the pit was always outside with just a cover). I could replace the controller for $87 and wrap a piece of tin around the burn pot but, over 5 faithful years of heavy use and it's time to retire my girl 😢. I have "eye balled" the Austin XL with envy for the last couple of years for its grill size and simplicity. And after your review have decided its time to go buy it. To complicate my decision though, is the new Onyx Edition Savanana grill. Almost the same size bottom grill but has the auger and the fire pot (with clean out) below the smoking chamber, a provided front shelf, and but it holds 2lbs less pellets and costs $100 more. So now, as much as Ive wanted the XL, I sure do like that auger and burn pot, w/clean out, being outside the smoking chamber. Hmm .....

SHe says it has blue tooth conversion but their website does not show it.

How do you make it smoke more? & do I have to prime it all the time while cooking just to get a few pellets in there just to smoke the meat cause holding that button on the digital screen on the pit boss Austin XL gets tiresome. I just got the grill and I’ve already almost worn the prime button out just to get a little bit of smoke.
