I am a loyal Green Mountain Grill fan and be sure to get the WiFi option so you can view/control it from your phone (grill temp, food temp probe, etc.)

At the S&B I have the Daniel Boone which I'll be using tonight with sear grates to cook steaks.

I keep a Davey Crocket in the RV which fits perfectly in the slideout bay.


Find your local GMG dealer/seller and go visit them.
Neal, we have decided on the Green Mountain Daniel Boone Prime Plus. What accessories do you recommend? Many thanks, Judy D

Looks like a good unit. It will be interesting to compare notes down the line. I think we are close to the decision point for the sticks-and-bricks as well. Will most likely be going with the Recteq RT-590.


We like the stainless steel construction and 30# pellet hopper among other features. The optional "Competition Cart" with larger wheels is a must accessory for us.

We decided this certain Green Mountain because it has a pizza oven, and rotisserie option. The pizza oven accessorie will get to 700 degrees, not quite as good as our wood fired oven, but will allow us an option in less than perfect weather. At our age, not so concerned about stainless steel lasting longer?. Judy D

Hey, I resemble that remark! :ROFLMAO:

With the sticks-and-bricks being here in the far northwest corner of soggy Washington state, things that don't rust are always preferred. ;)

You are right! Where you live, stainless is a really good idea! When we were camping in Washington last year, the coach next to us had a RT. The gentlemean was talking about how well built his smoker was. I just can’t pass up the accessories available on the GM. I am imagining how good a chicken, or small turkey will be with the rotisserie attachment! YUM!?

Congrats! You'll love it. As for accessories, not much needed:
  1. Pellets - different types of woods, maybe others here can share their preferences but I can't tell a difference. Texas Blend is my go to: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00LCU34PK/?tag=rvf01-20
  2. Searing grates as mentioned above, specific to your grill. GrillGrate Sear Station for Green Mountain Daniel Boone
  3. Pizza oven is nice: Amazon.com: Green Mountain Grill 2020 Wood Fired Pizza Oven for Daniel Boone and Jim Bowie Pellet Grill: Garden & Outdoor
  4. Cover: Amazon.com : Green Mountain Grills 3001 Daniel Boone Outdoor BBQ Grill Protective Heavy-Duty Weather-Resistant Canvas Cover, Black : Garden & Outdoor
  5. Front shelf: Amazon.com: Green Mountain Grill Gmg-4009 Front Shelf for Daniel Boone Pellet Grill: Garden & Outdoor
  6. Jerry will need one of these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DUDDQEU/?tag=rvf01-20
As to the stainless discussion, I think it's overkill. If I experience rust or any issues I will gladly buy another.

Oh you'll be surprised. I don't use full heat. I fried (literally) my first pizza cook. You'll set the grill to around 300-400 which the pizza stone will probably get upwards of 700, who knows, it's crazy hot and you'll want a IR heat gun for this. You'll be pulling out the firebox and laying the pizza oven over the flame and it gets extremely hot!

Here’s the GM model with a stainless hood.
 
Oh the hood...I was thinking some internal part. Yeah, I think SS is only like $100 more. I think it's more decorative than functional IMHO.
