The big gift: a new grill

Grilla's sale prices on November 8 included the Chimp 2.0 Tailgater pellet grill at $503.99, the Silverbac 2.0 at $769.99 and the bigger Silverbac 2.0 XL at $989.99. The XL has 1,644 square inches of cooking space across three racks, comes with two probes and has a 4-year warranty.

PK Grills makes cast aluminum charcoal grills. The PK300 is $699.99, the Aaron Franklin Signature Edition $799.99 and the PK360 $999.99. Until November 15, a PK360 or PK300 comes with a free "Turkey Day Essentials" set of a brine kit, a charcoal basket and butcher paper, which PK values at $124.

A worked example

Jordan has $75 to spend on a brother who smokes ribs most weekends. Using prices from November 8:

  • Grilla Meat Thermometer: $14.39.
  • Grilla Butcher Paper: $17.99.
  • Two Grilla rubs: $11.98.
  • Grilla Spritzer Bottle: $10.19.

That's $54.55, under Grilla's $79 free shipping threshold, so shipping would be added. Adding the $29.99 cast iron skillet makes $84.54, which ships free in the lower 48 states but goes $9.54 over budget. Check the delivery cost at checkout to see which works out better.

What to do now

  1. Find out what grill they have. Fuel and size decide which accessories fit.
  2. Order PK extras by November 15 if you want the free Turkey Day set with a PK300 or PK360.
  3. Check stock. Some Grilla rubs and sauces were already sold out on November 8.
  4. Check delivery times for big grills before you order, so a gift arrives in time.
