Green Mountain Grills Trek Prime 2.0 Portable Wi-Fi Pellet Grill
Camping, tailgating and small cooks where 12V power is available
The Trek is GMG's portable pellet grill: about 219 square inches on one grate, a 9-pound hopper, 150°F to 550°F in 5-degree steps and Wi-Fi control through the GMG Prime app. It runs on 12V direct current from a vehicle or a mains adapter, and still needs 36 inches of clearance.

- Maker specs: 150-550°F in 5° increments, Wi-Fi controller, meat probe included
- Maker specs: 24 H x 32 W x 16 D in, 63 lb; runs on 12V or a mains adapter

- Manual: probe not suitable above 257°F; clean about every 2-3 bags of pellets
- Warranty: 3 years from first retail purchase, original purchaser, non-commercial
Strengths
- Runs from 12V, so it works at a campsite or tailgate as well as at home
- Wi-Fi control and food-probe alerts come built in rather than as an upgrade
- Maker publishes full technical specs, part numbers and a startup-cycle chart
Caveats
- The 9-pound hopper needs topping up on long cooks

Direct-flame searing and weeknight grilling on one 380-square-inch grate
The Bullseye is a kettle-shaped direct-flame pellet grill with one grate, a 15-pound hopper and a RIOT mode that runs the auger flat out for searing. recteq's own FAQ says the grill has no grease management, and its spec table says the controller is not Wi-Fi enabled.
