18 reviews for Hybrid Grill – Propane
I have used the grill for close to a year now, and am extremely happy with its performance. The quality of construction is outstanding and the technical support and response is immediate. The large grill surface, dual cooking system, and the large pellet hopper allows for feeding large family gatherings (which I have frequently) with multiple food types, seamlessly through all of the seasons- even winter in Manitoba!!
I purchased the grill a year ago August. I got the natural gas kit. I believe it works better on propane. It was very finicky lighting on natural gas. I had to manually light it 90% of the time. The maximum temperature of 500 degrees makes it really hard to sear a steak. I found it didn’t work all that well during winter months. Cooking took forever. The finish is bubbling in a few places suggesting I may have a rust problem soon. I have reinstalled my gas Weber as my main grill and will keep my Black Earth Grill as a very expensive summer toy.
Purchased this hybrid grill in August. This grill is well built and nice that it is locally made. We will enjoy this grill for many years to come. I use the smoker more then the propane. But it is great to have the choice to grill with propane as well. Large cooking area and the removable cutting boards are a great idea.
A bit of a sticker shock but well worth it. Two thumbs up !!
AWESOME! I love everything about this product, from the delivery to shipping the packaging back to be reused. Hybrid is the way to go – love the large cooking surface and the removable cutting boards but most importantly, the quality workmanship and quality of materials used. My only suggestion is that it would be nice to have a rotisserie.
Purchsed the BE Hybrid in May and really enjoy cooking and smoking food on it.
The large grill provides even heat throughout and the unit is very easy to clean.
The cutting boards are great while cooking and for carrying food into the house.
Hi, I Purchased one of the First Black Earth Hybrids off the assembly Line. I’ve never regretted the Choice to Upgrade my Louisiana Grill CS-680, to a BE Hybrid Grill. I have extensive experiences Cooking for my small Family and for Large Groups of 60 people or more, so over the last the 15 years I’ve owned a few different Models of Smoker/Wood Pellet Grills. What I like about the Black Earth Hybrid is the Versatility it offers in Cooking with and Combining the different methods of Heat application, Wood Pellets, and Gas. I love Smoking Briskets for up to 19 hours on my Pellet system, or simply Searing a Chicago-Style Ribeye Steak on Gas at 550 degrees. My Yard space is at a Premium, and moving two different BBQ Grills out to make room for one Black Earth Hybrid was a major Treat. The useful features like the reversible Cast Iron Grills, and adjustable Side-Shelves/Cutting Boards are Awesome. The Pellet Hopper expansion is a great feature for my longer-term cooking projects too. I enthusiastically endorse this Product to anyone who loves talking Grilling with me! I’m now looking longingly at the New Black Stainless Steel Model Black Earth Hybrid..! I think I see one in my Future!
Awesome barbecuer/smoker especially love the big grilling space. And compactness
We purchased this bbq at the beginning of this summer and have truly enjoyed it. We have smoked all types of meats and love the outcome each time. Our friends have really loved to come for supper! The design is awesome and we love the built in cutting boards as we as the griddle accessories. We would recommend this product.
Purchased this Black Earth Grill 2 years ago, and have been very impressed with this unit.
Very easy to assemble!
Ignition system ….is the best I have ever used…..never clicking and hoping for ignition!
Even heat distribution, makes for great use of the large cooking area.
Smoking is certainly an Art…..which I am still experimenting! But the Black Earth unit certainly makes smoking foods easy…..just fill the tube with pellets, and plug into 110V and smoke away with your favourite flavor of pellets.
This is not the cheapest grill on the market…..but you get what you pay for !
I would certainly recommend purchasing this quality Grill.
We purchased our Black Earth Grill 6 months ago. This has been an excellent grill from the start , we are impressed with the high quality of this unit. It cooks breakfast on the cast iron griddle which we purchased separately. Smokes and sear’s steaks to perfection every time. The 650 square inch cooking surface makes a good amount of jerky at a time. We smoked a 15lbs. turkey on the grill at low temperature (around 200 degrees for 4 hours). The auger is mounted vertically up and the large pellet holder (optional) attaches easily to the auger and holds more then enough pellets to smoke a turkey. The grill handily switches between pellets and gas on the go. The gas ignites the pellets instantly and the grill is up to temp in a short amount of time. The pellet grate is mounted on the front of this machine and removes quickly and is easy to clean out before every cook. We had a few technical questions which were resolved with straight forward answers . This is the best duel fuel grill for your money. The unit rolls without effort on the heavy duty lockable castors . We like this grill a lot and decided to add it to our line up of grills for sale.
Best grill I’ve owned yet. Love the smoke/propane combo as I don’t have to own two grills anymore. It cooks evenly and hold a constant heat from start to finish. I’ve owned this grill for 6 months and use it at least 3 times a week. When needing technical support the Black Earth team has been great walking me through my issues and had them solved in no time. Since I purchased my grill I’ve had three family members buy the same grill after they have used it or tasted food that came off it. Two thumbs up
This high quality bbq was a gift for the bbq meister of our family who bbq’s all year ’round, often 7 days per week. Living up north in Manitoba also means it really gets put to the test in winter!
We have been using it for about 7 months now, and have only praise for its construction and performance. Temperatures are accurate, materials of high quality and its ability as a smoker is wonderful. I had considered a “regular’ bbq, but these approached the price of the sturdier Black Earth Grill without the same build quality.
One thing I especially like about the smoker is the design of the auger which lifts the pellets (feeder house style like a combine) before dropping them into the fire chamber. To me, this is far superior to a horizontal auger. As well, the Black Earth’s auger is inside the unit, protected from the elements. Those side loading smokers hang their augers in the breeze by comparison!
Many details extend throughout the design of the grill which has an array of unique but practical features. The retracting handle/shelves are another ingenious touch which I could see becoming an industry standard. The propane valves are higher quality as well – finely adjustable.
The weight of the grill for shipping is roughly 40 % increased by the sturdy packaging. Once I removed the packaging and interior components, I ramped it out of my truck single-handedly. (I picked mine up at the factory). Grill was fully assembled and complete.
As far as I’m concerned, the Black Earth Grill is an evolutionary product which looks back to the best practises of wood-fired history and combines them with modern technology. It was priced similar to other high end grills, except that it easily beats them in quality and performance. If you enjoy using good tools, you will enjoy a Black Earth Grill.
I’ve been using the Black Earth Grill for about 6 months now. I smoke something on it at least once a week. I have smoked and grilled everything from whole fish to pork roasts, veggies and wild game. I have not a single complaint and haven’t had one problem.
I have several accessories including the griddle insert (I cook breakfast on the grill regularly!), the rib rack, the oversized pellet holder and the upper racks, all of which expand the already unbelievable versatility of this grill. I have made jerky, smoked/cured sausages, everything on this grill and it has done an amazing job.
One of my favourite features is the precise temperature control of the smoker. It holds very accurately and consistently at the desired temperature ensuring perfect results.
I have also done some video reviews/recipes on YouTube that you can check out for more info. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obsuaRD5TVI&t=12s
All in all the grill gets a 5 out 5 stars for quality, functionality and delicious flavour!
Not just a top of the line grill but a top of the line company! I’ve had my Black Earth for about 10 months and I love everything about it. With this being my first pellet smoker, I had a small learning curve and the people at Black Earth have been SO helpful. The grill itself is a BEAST! The massive cooking surface allows for a lot of good to be cooked at one time but that’s not even my favorite feature. The removable cutting board side tables makes me think “how did nobody think of this before?” Its so nice being able to move back and forth from the kitchen to the grill. If you are in the market for a pellet smoker or just a new grill. Look no further. This beast is for you!
I purchased the grill about 2 months ago and always wanted the same grill to do both. I found that grill and let me tell you, I’m so glad I spent the money. I love it!!! The only think is the tubes can run out, so you need to check them thru the day. this grill is VERY QUALITY built. I did have to use customer service and they were outstanding too! SO happy with this grill, the support, the build quality and versatility of it. I’m giving 5 stars due to the quality of the product!
Service is number one with Black Earth grills. I had a problem with the control unit and one was one the way to me before I knew it. Simple installation and I and Black Earth where smoking again! Heats up quick and keeps a nice even heat.
I purchased the black earth grill over 5 months ago and really enjoy the unit. The grill gives you many more options than strictly a smoker. Any questions that I have had about the unit have been answered quickly. I am impressed on how well built the Black earth is and have come to realize that it is going to last me a very long time. My overall experience has been very positive.
I have enjoyed using my black earth hybrid grill from the day I opened the box to today, 18 months later. Based solely on its propane use, it is at least as good as any high end barbecue. But the added feature of the “smoker” puts this machine into a class of its own, easily justifying the sticker price.
For ease of use, durability, cooking and smoking capacity, I would recommend the black earth hybrid enthusiastically!
