DGN576DNC-D X-Large Heavy-Duty Charcoal Grill, Black

Daddy was due for a new grill. He picked it out and he did good. The grill is massive made our smoker look tiny. Great product, seemed to be an easy assembly my 10 year old helped build it. The style of the grill is nice and performs great. Worth it and he deserved a nice upgrade.

I was looking at many different types of grills and I kept coming back to this one. I was a little concerned with some of the negative reviews but decided to go with it and I love it. It is true that it had many parts but it was not hard to put together. Three of my kids (between ages of 13 and 8) took turns reading the instructions and put most of it together. I just made sure that things were tightened enough and of course placing the pit on top of the legs. It took us about three hours (but I could have done it in about 1.5 hours myself) to put it together. After that, I seasoned the grills, door, let it burn for the recommended time, and grilled some pork steaks that night. They were fantastic!Pros:Open the door and put more coals in instead of having to lift the grill like I use to do.Use the crank to move the coal rack up and down.Easy to control the heat.Heavy duty and well made.Ash trayCons:So far, I was unable to get the coals to stop burning even after closing all the vents. Not a big deal to me.The left corner of the ash try was bent and the paint was chipped when I opened the package and got everything out. From what I can tell, it was probably from a fork lift as there was a whole in the lower front corner of the box. I called customer service and they sent me a new tray, no questions asked. I strongly recommend this item.

Probably the easiest grill I have ever assembled. Once you get the racks seasoned, this grill is ready for huge events for season after season. I really like the addition of the bottle opener.. I know it's small but you would be surprised how many people think that is just an awesome feature for a grill. Definitely have two folks to lift the package, but once ready, it rolls super easy and very simple and light to lift one side at a time if you have a small step up to your patio. I will try to post a picture soon, but it looks great under our pergola and everything that has come off it has been fantastic. The heat isn't as easy to control as a "Big Green Egg," but that's really not what it's made for. The cooking space is ridiculous. This thing is not made for a couple wanting a couple ribeyes on Friday night, it's made for cooking hotdogs and hamburgers for a soccer team lol. So far, I have cooked perfectly heated steaks (4 total), I've done chicken wings, chicken legs, and of course, hot dogs and hamburgers. If you know how to control heat on a typical grill.. you really won't have trouble here.. this think is well designed.

The quality is incredible. Solid built and very easy to assemble, I used the same day, seared ribeye took 3 minutes a side at 500 degrees above that was 135 degrees internal temp perfect crust on the outside. Adjustable charcoal shelf makes for perfect temp control. BUY BUY BUY, amazing price and great product .

I've read some of the negative comments about this grill, specifically the comments regarding high temperatures. This almost put me off from buying this grill but I put my brave foot forward and made the purchase. I'm glad I did! This grill is fantastic!I have not experienced the grill exceeding temperatures over 400 degrees. For the most part, the temperatures hovered between 380 to 400. This may have to do with the simple fact that I have many years of experience cooking with coals and blocks of wood. You are NOT supposed to overload the the grill with coals and/or wood blocks.Just line the coal grate with enough coal to fill it with a max of two coals deep when mixed with wood blocks. That should last you a while for cooking. If you need more heat, open the cast iron door on the front of the grill and add some coal or wood.Building:I'll start by saying that this thing has a lot of parts.....a lot. The instructions state that this is a two person job but I was easily able to put it together by myself. I can see where two people would have come in handy to put on the two trays that attach to the sides of the grill but that's about it. Your tools for this job will mainly be a philips head screwdriver but to put the cart together, my socket set came also in handy. The entire build took about an hour and a half by myself.Like others have mentioned, the top does not seal completely. This is by design of the grill for airflow. I had no issues from this. I knocked a star off this review due to the lid having a slight bulge on the side and the coal tray being slightly bent. I was able to bend both back into the right shape but I should not have had to do that. Both were easy to fix.Cooking:Cooking on this grill proved to be a great experience! I managed to grill up more than enough food for 20 people in about three hours. You can put a lot of food in this grill! I had ribs on a rack, a bunch a chicken thighs on the grill and about 20 sausages on the warming rack! The hickory blocks gave the food a great flavor! Charcoal grill for the win once again!Clean up after grilling was easy. Just pull out the bottom ash tray and dump the ashes. I'm so glad I bought this grill!

It was better build and easily assembled

The headline says it all. The key feature is that you can move the charcoal up/down as needed. Very easy to clean. Excellent performance.

Love this. Perfect charcoal bbq. Nice size and firm when assembled. The tray and the side is great

This unit simply has everything I wanted. I have been grilling with both charcoal and wood with great results. My only deception is how fast the exterior pain pretty much vaporiser on the spots that heat up the most. I will have to repaint before winter storage to prevent rust. Aside from that I’m very please. Also wish it came with a rain cover for storage.

Excellent quality. We use it weekly and have given up the gas grill. Charcoal is the only way to go. Great purchase for the beginner

Excellent achat, robuste, facile à monter
