Thank you for this vid! I have been going through youtube and manufacture sites to try to narrow it down. My wife and I drove through the Seattle area stores trying to answer the BBQ/Smoker question. Was considering a Pit Boss because I would also like a griddle, but my impression was that it was a high priced Char-Broil! NOW, Weber has come through with this new "Stealth" edition, and ASAP I will order one! Went to the Weber site to order and the site states that it is coming soon!
You're welcome, thanks for stopping by. I highly recommend getting whatever grill speaks to you the most and will fit your needs. The new accessories are a nice touch too. I'm excited as well.
First of all I’m glad you’re back. When I was debating on getting an SFEX or a PitBoss, your videos where the deciding element. As nice as the stealth looks it’s not enough for me to replace my EX6 gen 2. It always performed like a champ from day 1. No fires, no pellet jams, no problems with temps… just yesterday was 23 F (Boston)… my EX6 is outside and took 12 minutes to get to 600F Rock solid. One note regarding the Stealth… the hoper seams considerably smaller…. Will it take 20 lbs???
As a 2nd gen EX4 owner I'm glad they reworked the pellet hopper. Whatever they did will be an improvement. I have been really pleased with the SF otherwise. I do not understand all the internet hate for the SF. Thanks for your update.
Some people are tribal with brands. Lol. My grill is still working fine but I can see why some things were changed. I had stated on my 30 day review, a better design would've been if the auger was at a 90° angle, that's exactly what they did. Seems like they're listening. Thanks for commenting. 🤜🤛
I love the looks of the Weber but have heard sooo many negative comments on grease handling I’m still not sure? What have your results been! I will eventually get the Weber if I’m comfortable they are preforming correctly! LMK your opinions please!
Yes. Getting the stealth model this April.

Smoke fire is awesome I’ve used it a lot

That's how I'm feeling about it. Although the hopper seems better, my grill works fine.
Yes, the UK website states 10kg which converts to about 22lbs.
Glad to be back too!
Glad my videos were able to help you make a great decision! 🤜🤛
Let's get our SHMOKE ON!!!

Although the grease management system isn't the best, it works. I've loaded it with pork butts and had the grease tray filled.
Cooking Joe - How is that handle-mounted light working out for you? Good light coverage?
There's much better options. The light isn't long enough, so most of the light shines on the lid rather than the inside.
New SmokeFire comes today. I am kinda bummed. I should have waited. First video I have seen on this topic. Nice!
You'd have to find out if the changes are worth the higher price tag. But if you decide to wait for the Stealth Edition, keep us posted.
Any idea on the release date? I am dying to get one of these.
No official date yet.
Hopper looks like half the capacity.
22lbs
I have a deal for a brand new EX4 gen2 for $750 thinking of picking it up but some many mixed reviews has me on the fence.
Seems like you got yourself a real decision to make. $750 is a sweet deal for a new SmokeFire but the stealth is looking sweet too.
A light inside a grill/smoker = one of the biggest gimmicks ever!
There's better ways to go about it but it's a nice touch.
