This grill includes many nice features. For starters, the grilling area is huge! There are 4 removable porcelain-enameled cast iron grilling grates. There are two charcoal boxes, with a divider in between. For smaller meals, it’s easy to only light charcoal on one side of the grill. The charcoal trays on each side of the grill can be raised or lowered, using an exterior handle. This is convenient if you want to sear a steak with it closer to the hot coals and then lower the charcoal tray for a slower cook. There are air flow adjustments on both sides, as well as an adjustable chimney on the top. There is a rack under the lid for grilling even more food! There is a small shelf on each side of the grill to place things while cooking. The built-in thermometer works well. Assembly was very straight-foorward and all components were well-labeled. I’ve been very satisfied with the performance of this grill so far.

'Obviously when you're grilling you want to have a drink'. Truer words have never been spoken. Awesome review! Never really thought about the seasoning part of a new grill.
Thanks so much because it is indeed 100% truth :) Yes, seasoning of any grill or smoker is super important!
I ordered this same type of grill from Amazon last week and the assembly was very easy.
I agree. It was simple to assemble!
wow i had been looking all over for a charcoal grill on the web.just could not find anything until i watch your video.i searched for this grill and made the purchase asap.thanks for the great video men .i have purchase this same grill.
+PABLO CONDE Cool check the link within this video's description for the cover too if you didn't already.
PABLO CONDE l
bought this same grill late 2015 and I love it
+DAILYGRIND Awesome! My only gripe has been that the charcoal tray doesn't drain water if I'm unable to put the cover on the grill.
i just brought one yesterday for this summer... i cant wait to use it😋😎
Hope you enjoy it!
Ive been looking to buy a Hasty Bake Legacy grill but since they are not available in Canada this Dyna glo looks like a great alternative!
It was a great grill for sure!
@@IrixGuy is it dead? How does it hold up?
Hi, I’m curious how this grill has held up for you since it’s been a few years now. Would you say it’s pretty durable?
It was a great grill but after my cover blew away in a tornado and I didn't replace it, I neglected the grill. After many months in the elements, it finally started to rust but that was in response to me neglecting the grill.
now we're talking!! GRILLS!! looks like a nice grill!. Throw some ribeye on there and lets see it in action! THUMBS UP!!!
+natserog Already grilled 4 on it. Stay tuned for videos =)
Do u think this grill would be good to grill wagyu steaks or reg prime steaks I like to set a steak in indirect heat first until I get internal temps that I like then I like to put it in direct fire to get a nice sear & this dual divider seams like it work what do u think ?
Or would filling one side up & just lowering the pan all the way down low work the same ?
That’s a matter of personal preference. Sometimes I sear first and then switch to indirect to achieve the desired meat temperature. In my opinion, searing first is best because it locks in the juices.
Have a similar master forge that's at least 12 to 15 years old and beat to shit. But it grills amazingly evey time. Love these style grills. Definitely looking into purchasing something similar. Great video bro.
Yes, they are a great style of grill! Check the link within this video’s description!
You cant cook on the "top rack"! Thats a warming rack.
The only issue I see here is between the two separate charcoal holders. The up and down arm mechanism to be exact. When cooking between the two holders, grease and food debris will spill/fall on the arms making it hard to clean. Within time you will have a grease and food buildup making it nearly impossible to keep the Mechanism arm clean. The more moving parts within the grill is not always good, especially when you want to keep your bbq clean, which in turn will effect how long the bbq will last.
+Michael L Those are great points. I love this grill but have had the charcoal removal tray become stuck, while sliding in and out. I also drilled a few holes in the charcoal tray so that rain can drain out and not collect in the tray.
The grill looks great. One question, Any hooks on the side for utensils? Or do you lay everything on the side tables??
I just put mine on side tables. Check the link within this video's description to find detailed specs.
Nice review!! Can you please tell me the internal dimensions (Lx W) of the main cooking area? I am planning to buy one but concern about my paella pan to fit in. Thanks
Thank you and certainly! Expand this video's description and then click the link there to find all specs and where to order =). Be sure to check out the cover that is linked there too!
@@IrixGuyThanks for your prompt response. I went to the website link but could not find the internal dimensions (L x W) of the main cooking area. Please your help here
The wife sais I have one of these coming for my birthday... I'm sceptical of the devider.... but I do a lot of indirect heat cooks... so, we shall see how it goes.
It’s great because it makes it easy to grill steaks or burgers directly over the heat too.
How is the grill holding up? I am interested to pick it up but have read that there are a few issues with it like it does not work well with lump charcoal, due to the type of trays, some individuals have complained that the drip or waste tray is of low quality and gets deformed easily,. Please advise...
Other than a little rust, mine is holding up great! I did drill a few small holes so that water can drain, it case it rains before I get a chance to put the cover back on. Check the link within this video’s description to find the grill and the cover.
hi, i dont know if you can help but can you tell me the inside dimension of the grill top length, width and height as i was looking online and size its 60x28x50 but i think thats the overall dimension and i cant find anywhere the inside dimensions. Reason im asking its that i want to make some modifications but before i make the order i will like to know that so i dont have to return the grill. Thank You!.
Check the link within this video’s description. Detailed specs are listed there.
@@IrixGuy thank you
Hey there, great review, one question, can you fire up one side and indirectly cook placing the meat on the other side. I like to cook a lot of meat that way. I was thinking the devider would block the heat. Thanks
Never mind, just watched your other video on indirect cooking, thanks.
I do that all of the time! If I'm cooking ribs, I put the charcoal and wood chips on one side and the ribs on the other. The flames don't touch them. The knobs to lower the charcoal height are great too!
Another cool thing is grilling small meals on one side. I do steaks like that for my wife and I all of the time. I only use charcoal in both sides when I'm grilling for an army.
Is it easy to start the fire for charcoal? I had other charcoal grills and you had to load paper on the bottom for air to go up, how effective is this grill for that?
+KingVDT519 Very easy when it's not raining out. Check the link within this video's description to find an electric charcoal lighter like I use. No lighter fluid or newspaper required :)
great review, thanks for posting, i'm going for this one.
+pablofre Check the link within this video's description and you can find it there.
Get the Oklahoma Joe's. The Judge
How is the grill holding up now? Planning to get one soon.
It held up well until I neglected to cover it. You can find the link to the grill and cover within this video’s description.
I’ve had trouble maintaining a constant cook temperature. Stays wide open. All vents closed! Any advice?
I never ran into that one.
Do you live in a really windy area? Maybe try using some kind of wind blockers around the grill and see if that doesn't help your temperature regulation.
That one nice to see
It’s great!
Hmmm nice charcoal grill but you must always practice and promote safety first all the time while grilling. The way you do this is by buying yourself a pair of nice shoes that will protect your bare feet from the hots coals that escaped your grill because you happened (using that built in bottle opener) to be drinking plenty of cold beers while grilling your steaks and hamburgers. Stay safe my friend.
+ega0117 LOL safety first :)
How long have you had this grill now and is there any rust starting to form? I'm debating between this one and the all black one. I don't want the chrome to start looking bad. Thx!
+murphb40 Actually there is a little rust around the chimney on the top. Love the grill though!
+IrixGuy's Adventure Channel thx for the reply. I figured it would be rust there because of the steam that comes out. Is it really bad and how long did you have it until the rust came? Also do the middle of the grill gets hot seeing that there's no charcoal there?
murphb40 Let me try to snap a photo when it stops raining. I'mm post it on my Facebook fan page. All grills get plenty hot. Those dual charcoal boxes are great and for small meals, I just use one of the two charcoal boxes and it's plenty hot to make 2 outta 4 grates hot =)
+IrixGuy's Adventure Channel oh ok perfect. I'm not on Facebook so if you could post the link so I can see that picture of the smoke stack because I'm bout to pull the trigger as soon as I see your pic. Do you have ANY CONS about the grill?
murphb40 I'll try to film a video tomorrow if weather permits. My only complaint so far is minor. The tray that pulls out on the bottom middle with silver handle (catches ashes) but it also catches water. It should have sloped towards the middle with a hole for rain to drain out. That's only a problem if you store the grill uncovered like I do while not in use though. You can also just remove the tray while cool and not in use =) I haven't been able to identify any other cons with this grill yet. I absolutely love the porcelin-enameled cast iron great! They do a wonderful job of searing meat!
I think I can put some apple wood on the right pit and smoke something on the left!
Without a doubt and good choice of wood =) #AppleWood
How do we get these in Australia?
Check the link within this video’s description. Maybe it’s available there? Unfortunately the only thing that I’m familiar with in Australia is Archibald Chesterfield III from BRIZbane!
Just curious. Mine hasn't arrived yet. Is divider removable?
I can't remember. I failed to keep this grill covered and it finally rusted through. It was an AWESOME grill though and cooked many amazing meals!
Can this also be used to smoke food or is this just for grilling?
I've smoke a lot in it. I just put wood and charcoal in one side and slow smoke on the other.
@@IrixGuy awesome! Thank you so much for your feedback. 👌🏽
@@IrixGuy One last question- Was the grill hard to assemble? I am looking to purchase a Lowes and was hoping they could put it together for me, but if its not too hard then I may enjoy doing it myself.
It was easy to assemble. Click the link within this video’s description and you can find it there. PRO TIP....when it arrives on your doorstep, unbox there and carry each component to you backyard to inventory and then assemble. That was you’re only having to lift individual components and it makes clean-up easier too!
@@IrixGuy I just placed the order and thank you this was very helpful!!!
how do you feel about this grill now?
+Need2Retire I've gained a few pounds.....feeling great! I do have one minor gripe. The tray that slides in and out to dump the charcoal.....if it rains the night after I grill, it always fills up with a lot of water. Obviously the grill protective cover prevents that but I can't throw that on while the grill is hot. It's a small gripe for an awesome grill but still annoying.
You need to tighten up all the bolts and screws first
I’ve never had any problems with the grill and neither scree nor bolts have fallen out. Why do you think that they’re not tight enough?
Yeah the side vent screws were loose when u were closing them but your video has been up for a year so hopefully they are tighten by now lol
Great video
TYVM and please subscribe and check out my other grilling videos too!
IrixGuy's Adventure Channel how is this grill holding up? Read mixed reviews
@@coolvideo28 It was a fantastic grill until I neglected to keep it covered outside. It eventually rusted through, due to my abuse.
@@coolvideo28 Link within this video's description BTW if you decide to order one. Thanks in advance =)
Also you said 600 degrees is hot and you dont know what would be cooked at that temp. How about a pizza? Those pizza ovens go up to 800 deg! I know you are not a chef. And that is the older version and that partition in the middle creates a "cool" spot- not good. I have the new one without that partition.
LOL I cook 7 days a week most weeks :) #ChefIrixGuy
Is this a sales pitch?
Not at all. Check out my hundreds of other grilling videos too! #ChefIrixGuy
Thx. What is your opinion of Pit Boss 7 Series? I want a pellet smoker that I dont have to babby sit all day. Or perhaps suggest an option. Would like to spend less than 800. Thx, Kevin
@@ChefKevinRiese Check out my Pit Boss video playlist and the Pit Boss like I use should be a LOT LESS than that.
The reviews on AMAZON aren't so great , , how has this grill held up so far. ,Many folks have said the build quality is really poor.
Build quality was fine for the first year or so but then rust built up and ruined it, due to me failing to keep it covered. Great grill if one takes the times to cover it up after it cools off.
I'd actually be dragging it back inside my garage after every use so there'd be no issues with it getting wet.
This being said you figure it should hold up fine and work well for several years?
@@IrixGuy Which was my exact problem. i had it for four years and it's going in the trash this week. Not worth my time to restore.
Why you all in my grill. Can you pay my bills.
My grill took major staining from seasoning it.
Gotta love the look of a grill that has seen a lot of use =)
I just received it a few days ago.
It's damaged! I believe it very thin stainless steel.
The company is sending me another. Well see how that one does.
NO GOOD DOES NO HAVE ROSTISSIRIE
I love rotissirie but never cook it. Never missed that.
Cheap tin.
It cooked great but it did finally rust through on the inside. The exterior held up exceptionally well though.
