Green Mountain Grills Trek Prime 2.0

The Trek is GMG's portable, and the only pellet grill in this batch that runs off a 12V car battery as well as household power — that is the whole point of it. It carries 219 sq in on the main grate plus an upper rack, a 9 lb hopper, and the same 150–550°F range and PRIME app as the full-size Ledge and Peak. At $399 it is also the cheapest WiFi pellet grill from a known brand.

Pros

  • ✓12V direct power means it runs from a car accessory outlet or battery — Traeger's portables need shore power
  • ✓550°F ceiling beats every Traeger, portable or not, by 50–100°F
  • ✓WiFi and the PRIME app at $399, where Traeger's cheapest connected grill is $699
  • ✓64 lbs and 34 inches wide — genuinely liftable into a truck bed by one person
  • ✓Same controller and app as GMG's full-size grills, so the learning transfers if you upgrade

Cons

  • ✗219 sq in main grate is small — roughly two racks of ribs or six burgers
  • ✗9 lb hopper is about half a day of smoking before a refill
  • ✗The matching Trek Cart 2.0 is a $199 accessory and currently out of stock on GMG's store
  • ✗GMG does not publish a warranty term on the product listing
  • ✗GMG's dealer network is thinner than Traeger's or Pit Boss's, which matters for parts
Green Mountain Grills Ledge Prime 2.0
~$799
Pellet Grill
3.38(13)

The Green Mountain Grills Ledge Prime 2.0 is the successor to the popular Daniel Boone, a mid-size WiFi pellet grill that runs on 12V direct power and spans a wider temperature range than most rivals - from a 150°F cold-smoke setting up to a 550°F sear.

~$1,099
Pellet Grill

The Peak is the top of GMG's three-grill line, above the Ledge our catalog already carries. It brings 658 sq in on the main grate plus an upper rack and a 20 lb hopper, on the same 12V direct system, PRIME app and 150–550°F range as the Trek and Ledge. GMG sells a rotisserie kit and a SideBurn propane burner that fit it, both as separate accessories.

Brisk It Zelos-450
~$400
Pellet Grill

Brisk It is the first brand to build generative AI into a pellet controller: its Vera software takes a plain description of what you are cooking and writes the temperature-and-time program itself, then runs it. The Zelos-450 is the entry model at 450 sq in, and the only one of the three currently in stock on Brisk It's own store. Hardware-wise it is a conventional adaptive-PID pellet grill with a 12 lb hopper and a 180-500°F range; the controller, not the cooker, is what you are paying for.

ASMOKE AS350 Portable Pellet Grill
~$349
Pellet Grill

The AS350 is the smallest real pellet grill in this catalog: 256 sq in, 49 lbs and a 4 lb hopper, aimed at apartment balconies, campsites and boats. ASMOKE's pitch is its ASCA system, which injects steam into the chamber to keep food from drying out at the low pellet volumes a small burn pot produces. A DC variant, the AS350DC, runs off a rechargeable battery for about $50 more — the only way to run a pellet grill away from an outlet.

Best for: Balcony, campsite and boat cooks who want pellet smoke without a 150 lb cart grill

Halo Prime300
~$450
Pellet Grill

Halo is in this catalog for its griddles only; the Prime300 is its countertop pellet grill and the one genuinely unusual thing in Halo's range. It runs from the included AC adapter or an optional 12V 5Ah lithium battery, making it one of very few pellet grills that works with no outlet at all. A 10 lb hopper gives 15-20 hours of runtime in a 49 lb countertop body, and a slide-control damper opens a direct sear over the fire pot.

Best for: Tailgates, campsites and balconies where a pellet grill has to run without mains power

Z Grills 450B
~$477
Pellet Grill

Z Grills' entry model, refreshed for 2026. It keeps the thing that makes the brand worth listing at all — a genuine PID 3.1 controller — at a price where Traeger and Pit Boss both ship simpler boards. 459 sq in, an 18 lb hopper with a cleanout door for swapping pellet species, two meat probes and a grease bucket. There is no WiFi at this tier; that starts at the 700-series.
