Cooking space, per the listing

Listings usually count the upper rack too, so measure your biggest cook against the main grate.

What it has going for it

600 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.

180–700°F

Low and slow at 180°F for brisket, and up to 700°F when you want to grill hot and fast.

WiFi app

Check the pit and the meat from the couch, and on most apps nudge the temperature too. Gold on a 12-hour brisket that starts at 5 a.m.

What changes on cook day

The big change is the leash: with the WiFi app you start the brisket at dawn, go back to bed and check the pit from your phone.

Weeknights or the whole crew?

A family of four, with room for guests on Saturday. 600 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 listing gives no hopper size, so keep a bag of pellets next to it for long cooks.

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: 700°F is the stated top end
You start cooks at dawn and want to watch them from bed

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.

Better fit elsewhere?

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

Steak night matters more than brisket? The Pit Boss 500 FB2 adds a direct-flame sear (7.9/10).

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

The verdict

Our favourite thing about the recteq Patio Legend 600 + Basics Bundle is 600 sq in of cooking space, closely followed by a stated 180–700°F range. No buyer reviews yet, so the recteq Patio Legend 600 + Basics Bundle has to win you over on paper. The catch with this recteq pellet grill: no word on the warranty. We'd pick the recteq 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 the recteq Patio Legend 600 + Basics Bundle goes in your basket, check the outlet near the spot: it needs a grounded outdoor outlet within cord reach, and a long extension cord is a poor substitute.

Before you buy

How much you really cook

600 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

Look for a grounded, outdoor-rated outlet; if you need an extension, use a short heavy-gauge outdoor one.

Pellets and long cooks

No hopper size is stated. Keep a bag of pellets next to the grill for long cooks and check the level now and then.

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.
