Cooking space, per the listing

Fed by a 15 lb hopper. Listings usually count the upper rack too, so measure your biggest cook against the main grate.

Why it made our list

380 sq in

Small on purpose: enough for burgers for four or a rack of ribs, on a grill made to travel.

15 lb hopper

Enough pellets for a long afternoon cook. For an all-nighter, keep the bag close.

Built to travel

Sold as a portable grill, so the smoked ribs can come camping with you. It still needs power for the fan and the auger.

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.

It comes along: it is sold as a portable grill. It still needs power for the fan and the auger.

Backyard or road trip?

Road trip, mostly. 380 sq in is dinner for two to four.

Plan for power: an outlet at the campsite or a power station that can run the fan and the auger all afternoon. At home it doubles as the balcony grill for small households.

Best for you if

  • You cook for two, or you are short on patio space
  • You tailgate, camp or cook on a balcony
  • You trust a long track record: 345 buyer reviews

Skip it if

  • You want a stated temperature range: this listing gives none
  • You cook for a big crowd: the grate is 380 sq in
  • You want to watch the cook from your phone: there is no WiFi here
  • Star ratings come first for you: 3.9/5 is below the 4.3 average of this ranking

What recteq promises

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

  • 380 sq in cooking area
  • Reaches up to 749°F
  • Spacious 15lb hopper

Setup and what you get

Assembly day. Light assembly at most: unfold, plug in, fill the hopper. Do the first burn-in at home before the trip.

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?

The verdict

Our favourite thing about the recteq RT-B380 Bullseye is 380 sq in in a small footprint, closely followed by a 15 lb hopper. With 345 buyer reviews behind it, you are not taking a leap in the dark. Our main reservation: their 3.9/5 average sits under the 4.3 of this ranking. We'd pick it if you cook for two, or you are short on patio space; otherwise, put it next to the Green Mountain Trek Prime first.

The one thing we'd check first

Before the recteq RT-B380 Bullseye lands on your porch, check the power you will have: it needs an outlet or a power station for the fan and the auger, so check what the campsite offers.

Before you buy

How much you really cook

380 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

Ask the campsite about hook-ups, or check the watt-hours of your power station against a full cook.

Pellets and long cooks

The hopper holds 15 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.

How we rated it

Our rating: 7.5/10

Our rating is a score out of 10. It weighs what buyers say, the specs the listing states and our editors' read of how it compares with its rivals. It is separate from the buyer star rating.

  • Buyer rating (45%): the average buyer rating on the listing, damped when there are fewer than 50 reviews.
  • Review volume (35%): more reviews mean more reliable evidence, on a logarithmic scale up to 5,000 reviews.
  • Documented specifications (20%): how completely the exact listing documents the attributes that matter.
