Cooking space, per the listing

Fed by a 21 lb hopper. Listings usually count the upper rack too, so measure your biggest cook against the main grate.

What it has going for it

747 sq in

The sweet spot for most backyards: a weeknight dinner for four, or a Saturday brisket with room for a few sausages next to it.

180–500°F

Low and slow at 180°F for brisket, and up to 500°F when you want to grill hot and fast.

Sears up to 1,000°F

The classic pellet grill weak spot is the sear. This one lets the flame reach the food, so steaks and smash burgers get a real crust.

What changes on cook day

You set a temperature, the controller feeds the pellets, and you get your afternoon back. No app here, so you will walk out now and then to read the controller.

Steak night stops being the weak spot: the direct-flame option lets the fire reach the meat, so you get a crust and not just smoke.

The 21 lb hopper means an overnight cook without a 3 a.m. refill.

Weeknights or the whole crew?

A family of four, with room for guests on Saturday. 747 sq in fits ribs and a tray of wings at the same time, without being so big that a Tuesday dinner looks lost on it.

The 21 lb hopper covers an overnight cook.

Best for you if

You cook for the family most weeks and for friends now and then
You want one grill for low-and-slow and hot grilling: 500°F is the stated top end
You want steaks with a crust, not just smoked meat

Skip it if

You want to watch the cook from your phone: this one has no WiFi
You'd rather wait for buyer reviews: none are captured for this listing yet

What Pit Boss promises

These points come from the seller's own listing, so read them as the brand's claims.

Stated temperature range: 180–500°F
Direct-flame searing: Stated, up to 1,000°F
Warranty: 5 years

Setup and what you get

Assembly day. Plan an hour or two with a second pair of hands. Most manuals ask for a first burn-in before the first cook.

Its spot. Level ground, a few feet from the wall and anything that can melt, an outlet in reach. A cover keeps the pellets and the controller dry between cooks.

Cook day. Per the listing, you can track the meat with the probe in the box and finish with a direct-flame sear.

Warranty & support. 5-year warranty, as stated in the listing

These are the seller's promises, not ours. Keep your order confirmation, and ask who handles repairs before you order the Pit Boss 700 FB2.

Better fit elsewhere?

Feeding more people? The Pit Boss Navigator 6-Series Vertical lists 2,224 sq in of cooking space (9.2/10).

Want to watch the cook from your phone? The Traeger Pro 780 has WiFi (9.3/10).

Need one for the campsite? The Traeger Ranger is built to travel (9.3/10).

The verdict

What we'd buy the Pit Boss 700 FB2 for is 747 sq in of cooking space, with a stated 180–500°F range as a bonus. No buyer reviews yet, so this Pit Boss pellet grill has to win you over on paper. Our main reservation: no WiFi, while most of this list has it. We'd pick the Pit Boss if you cook for the family most weeks and for friends now and then; otherwise, put it next to the Pit Boss 1600 Navigator first.

The one thing we'd check first

Before you order the Pit Boss 700 FB2 and wait for the delivery truck, check whether you will miss WiFi: there is no app here, so long cooks mean walking out to read the controller.

Before you buy

How much you really cook

747 sq in is stated, often the main grate and the upper rack added together. Measure your biggest cook (two briskets? six racks of ribs?) and lay it out in our grate area planner.

Power at the spot

It plugs into a regular outdoor outlet for the igniter, the fan and the auger. A grounded outlet close by beats a long extension cord.

Pellets and long cooks

The hopper holds 21 lb. How long that lasts depends on the temperature and the weather, so keep a bag next to the grill for long low-and-slow cooks.

Cleaning

Plan to vacuum the ash out of the fire pot every few cooks, and keep the grease tray clean: that is where most flare-ups start.
